I'm having a problem running the OS/2 peer software in Warp Connect.
I have 2 machines connected to each other.  They can ping each other
using TCP/IP, so I know the physical connection is fine.  Even though
the peer service is started on both machines, I can't get either of
them to see the other.

Am I doing something wrong?  I double click "Sharing and Connecting",
and select Connection, Create, but in the list of workstations I can
only see the local one, not the other one.

Thanks for any help.

Oops!  I had different domain names on the 2 machines.  Sorry about
that...it works fine now.

Are they both in the same DOMAIN?
