Has anyone successfully hooked an Amiga to a PC box running Win95 via
Ethernet?

Here is what I have and what I am trying to do...


A 2-PC network (home) connected with NE2000 compatible ethernet cards (coax).
They use the NE2000 drivers with MicroSoft's TCP/IP (built-in to Win95).
WINS & DNS are disabled.  Machines were assigned (by me) IP addresses
of 100.100.100.2 (the gateway) and 100.100.100.3

This setup works.

There is also an A4000 (Warp-28 with a LOT of stuff) using an A2065
Ethernet card & AmiTCP 4.0 demo.  The net is terminated properly and
the A4000 was assigned IP 100.100.100.1 (again, by me).  The system
says the Ethernet card is working, but I can't even PING the other
machines (default gateway points to 100.100.100.2).  I can successfully
PING myself.  Neither of the PCs can PING the Amiga (I checked packet size,
etc. -- no good).

The Amiga has been given the name of "amiga".

I think the problem is the DOMAIN setup.  The PCs also connect to the
internet via TCP/IP and the domain is "magicnet.net" (a local provider).
This is the only setting that can't be set differently for dialup and
LAN -- everything else can!  The PCs successfully handle the Internet
as well as the LAN (minus the Amiga).

I'd like to try Samba for the Amiga to get it up and running with the
Win95 network, but I can't get ANY connection.

Suggestions?
