FWIW, I also noticed that PLIP seems to work best when both machines are about the same speed. If you can't get it to work between a very fast machine and a slow one, then I suggest you try a different machine (if possible) that is of similar speed as the other one. Unfortunately, nowadays computers don't have "turbo buttons" anymore to make them slower. :-) Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co. KG, Marktplatz 29, 85567 Grafing b. M.
