Hi Again,

I have success! It was Al's method which eventually worked, much to my
surprise. I went into the setup program and found that the hard disk had set
itself to 'normal CHS ' mode and so, after a little messing about , I tried
'extended CHS' mode and it worked perfectly, without having to repartition,
reload or anything.
So, I now have 2 linux boxes on my network which seem to be able to
communicate with each other - I can ping back and forth and rlogin from
either to the other. Now I have to try to find out how to shift files from
one to the other - do I mount a directory of one on the other and just copy
them across or what? Can someone give me a clue please - with an example
command rather than just saying do this and then that, remember, I am a
'novice home user' ;o)
