>Note this is straight forward when using NT workstation or W2k as a workstation accessing another like platform or server. With '98 you have to setup a host file, which is a major pain in the podex! I have some info on this if this is what you are after. Otherwise, as for IIS, yes you can set up a virtual directory on the Server or another machine that your server can talk to. As for '98 and PWS - I wouldn't even play with that.
Thanks. Will think about it.
