Olaf,

Don't know about Win XP Home edition, but I have at least one existence proof that Writelog works fine with Win XP Professional and Win 2000 computers in a network. So if Win XP Home doesn't work, I would guess it is a problem with Win XP Home not with Writelog.

Ooops !

Forgot to tell that both computers are using Win XP Home edition
I just saw an earlier posting by Clive GW3NJW stating that nobody to date has reported
a succesful XP to XP network with Writelog. If that is still the case I guess i,m stucked :-)

Hi all


We are planning to convert from CT to writelog at the LA8W contest station
and I am now doing my best to learn the program.

The time has now come to set up a small network between two computers
just to see how it perfoms and to try the different options

However I have not been very succesfull


Here is my problem.


I am not able to network a laptop and a desktop together.
The laptop can connect to the desktop but not the other way around.

When i log qso,s on the desktop it shows on on both computers.
When i log QSo,s on the laptop it only shows on the laptop

I guess this is normal since the desktop states it is not connected.
All i get from the desktop whatever i try is the following: "LOST CONNECTION TO LAPTOP"


1) I have configured the two computers with the same OS and version of Writelog ( 10.42c)
( We will use W98SE at LA8W but this is what I use at home)


2) I have created the same workgroup, username and password for both computers.

3) I can share files and see both computers in Windows networking.

4) I use a server clean copy of the contest on both computers.

5) I have restarted Netseupnt.exe and the NetDDE services



I have used several hours on this problem including reinstalling windows, writelog , updating drivers etc.
Have also tried with different versions of Writelog but the problem is always the same


THE DESKTOP IS JUST UNNABLE TO CONNECT TO THE LAPTOP.


Hope someone can help us on this issue !


See you from OJ0LA 19/9 - 26/9
