[WriteLog] Dupe Checking on Network

[Scot Herrick]

The key is that one PC 'registers for Network connections' and the other
Registers for network connections AND Links to the Network. 

You have both computers Linking to the Network and it should only be one PC
linking to the other.

I'm still having issues uploading to my web site and still need to get the
Networking piece better. I know how to do it, but am a bit time-challenged
at the moment to get the technical difficulties fixed...

Subject: [WriteLog] Dupe Checking on Network

I set up a two computer Club Station for networking in SS last weekend.
Both 
stations use Windows 98.  I followed the steps under "Networking Operations"

in the help file.  Specifically, I configured a SS file on Computer A, did a

"Register to Setup Network Connections" and than saved the file on Computer
#1. 
 On Computer #2, I accessed the file from the C drive of Computer #1 and
then 
saved it locally on Computer #2 as instructed.  I "Registered to Accept 
Network Connections" on Computer "2 and then selected "Link to Network" from
both 
computers.

All seemed to work well.  QSOs entered on Computer #1 showed up on Computer 
#2 and vice versa.  I connected computer #1 to the Telnet for spots and then

setup Computer #2 to get it's spots from computer #1 and that worked fine
too.

The problem was that dupe checking did not work accross computers.  Computer

#1 would only dupe against the calls that had been entered on Computer #1
and 
Computer #2 would only dupe against calls that had been entered on Computer 
#2.

We tried everything but could not get the dupe checking to work across the 
network although the calls entered in each computer seemed to show up in
both 
computers logs OK.

Any idea of what we might have done wrong?
