Donald,
>> Are you running SERVER.EXE on the same machine(s) that you are using as
slaves?
I've got all machines set up running as servers. I have a collection of
printers, scanners, dat back-up, etc. spread over all the computers and want
total access. I can get the network operation I expected with any other dos or
win application, except 3DS. Do you recommend setting up with one server and
the rest slaves?
I would appreciate any info you can pass on between the PAR and Lantastic. I
had the same corruption problems and never did get it figured out. Here's
another weird thing I hope I can describe. My Gateways have IDE drives; with
PARDRV loaded, I could copy a tga file from one network C drive to the other
network C drive, and it would go through the PAR tga translation. In other
words, if the tga started out at 600k on one C drive, it would copy over to the
other C drive (on the machine with the PAR) and magically turn into 1,082,898
(the size that the PAR exports). I could go into the PAR software and change
the import/export settings, and change the way tgas copied over the network.
This scared me so bad I have never loaded the PAR and Lantastic together again.
Thanks for the support.
