I'm experimenting with Windows 95. I would like to network them but I cannot make them "See" each other. The version of Windows 95 is 95B (OSR2). Is this possible. The Windows XP Network setup that is on the XP Cd is not compatible with Windows 95B. Is it possible to network these 2 os's & share the internet connection from the XP Machine?

Thanks

Vince

Yes, of course it is possible, you might need to start reading something on it here:

I asked about the same question a month ago, and then no one responded. >_<

I don't get it....
...are you going to sue me for discrimination or for having missed it?

Thanks for those links, jaclaz, much appreciated. I had this same question but I'm working on so many other things that I hadn't asked about it yet. Now I don't have to.
