Subject: Master Ethernet Upgrade (part 3)

Following Spow's advice I have added:

Hostname   Master1
Workgroup  Chriswhy

to Choices:Internet.Startup.

I tried connecting to my RiscPC (called cat) and after adding it to the
hosts section in the configuration file, I could the *ping cat successfully.
I could also *mount \\cat\Downloads successfully and read file on the Master
in the Downloads directory. However if I delete the "Workgroup Chriswhy"
line from the Master's configuration file and add it to the mount command, I
get "Host not known".

The RiscPC runs RISC OS 6.16, SMBServer 0.07a. SMBServer is configured with
Workgroup Chriswhy and protocol NT1 to work with the rest of the Windows
domain. Cat appears in the Windows Microsoft Windows Network list. The
Downloads directory is accessible from the all Windows computers.

\\cat\Downloads is also accessible on the Iyonix using !Omni under
LANManager.
