Hi Stephen, I think at this point, a call to Sighted would be your best bet. However, I will try to locate my network port information when I get back to the office. George. -----Original Message----- From: duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Stephen Schmucker Sent: 11 December 2005 18:47 To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxuser] Re: Networking Basic-d Hi George, I've told the embosser to obtain an ip automatically. I then had the embosser print the page. It came back with an ip of 192.168.1.210. The subnet and gateway, and tftp were all there as well. I then proceeded to ping the beast and damn, if I didn't finally get a positive response. Hoooray! What is the next step? And, thanks hugely for you patience and help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, November 27, 2005 4:02 AM Subject: [duxuser] Re: Networking Basic-d > Hi Stephen, > > Please don't keep me in suspense, especially on a Sunday > morning before I've had breakfast!
