You know, I never thought of doing that!!! How stupid! I have had some
problems with Dave and our WINS server (even though it was configured to
use the WINS server it didn't seem to find the Netbios names out there).

The problem I have now is that I had to enter the names by hand in DAVE,
and when I try to connect to any PC it gives me an access denied or wrong
password error. I solved it by running DAVE Access, entering my password
there, quitting Dave access, then everything is cool. Very weird.
Although I haven't read the manual to see if I'm doing anything
wrong...???
