In Win98 it is TCP/IP then Properties again and eventually I got a window 
that said IP addresses are assigned automatically.  This Win98 computer 
(which has no ethernet or USB port) works properly with VT100, XP never 
does.  I will try automatic IP on XP next, thanks.

Has anyone used BL with ANY kernel to access NTFS?  Many people don't want 
me to change anything  in XP.
