Hooten) Organization: NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif. Lines: 17 I have NCSA vers 2.2 for PC and 2.3 for mac. I am trying to log into a remote server with the address of 128.149.32.3. I am able to login and FTP with the PC, and to FTP with the mac, but when I try a direct connection, I get an error of "Unable to connect to ..." and then "Local Host or Gateway not responding" I have no idea what to do with this message, especially because the other ways work so well. Any help would be appreciated. I am running through ethernet on all computers, and have an ip number on each entered into the MYIP line of Config.tel. I can also log into Unix machines that are local to me, i.e. within the company, but not outside of it. This is strange that the PC would access a system through essentially the same connections as the mac, but the mac will not connect. HELP Greg Hooten GAHOOTEN@ames.arc.nasa.gov
