FireFox times out. Internut Exploder wants to connect via dialup, and won't recognize the LAN connection. I accidentally discovered something... I get the same results from Firefox and LeapFTP on the XP regardless of whether eznos is running or not. That could be significant IMO. That made me wonder: When the batchfile is run up to the point where I get the eznos prompt on the screen, should I be entering one of its commands to make it do something, or should everything have been already done at that stage for the connection? And another thing I found while experimenting with addresses in leapFTP: it doesn't matter what I enter, as long as it is 192.168.1.n where n>0, it gives the same result - it attempts the connection then times out. Also, LeapFTP attempts connection via port 21, PuTTY uses port 22. Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
