RE: OT Networking XP, ,NT Server, 2000 and SGI

Yep, Yep, Yep.  The Switch is a simple switch with nothing to configure: 5
cat5 ports 1 12v socket. No software .
I agree - the NT machine does seem to be working as a router and I don't
want it to.  I have configured all the windows machines on the same subnet
but have no idea of how to do this on the SGI.  I will take a look at the
online help and see what they say.

This is for using a graphics intensive (OpenGL) package on the SGI and
being
able to control it via Exceed 3D from the PC.

Thanks to everyone for your help and especially to Ian and

Firstly,

Is the switch just a simple thing, with no VLans configured, or anything of
that nature?

Secondly, it sounds very much like your NT Server is acting as a router
between two subnets..

Best check that all of your machines are using the same subnet mask, and
are
on the same subnet. with a small network of this sort, it's usually a good
idea to use the Private Address Space, 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254 with a
mask
of 255.255.255.0
