I'm running the above setup without any probbs, but in my case i'm using
AmiTCP/IP protocol instead of ISP. I've got both WfW95 and WinNT on my P120,
and they both are working. On the amiga side i use Samba for file sharing, this
works fine in one direction. I can only get the HD's from the amiga to show up
on the pentium, not the other way, to bad :( but the network is working.
