Hope someone can help.
I have two machines running win2000 they are in a local area connection set up within windows, there is a netgear router with broard band connection. The ip addresses are set as 192.168.0.1/2 the router is set on 10. The ip addresses are then set to obtain automaticaly with the usual resets everything seems to work ok for about a week. The machines can access the net, and the mailgate program works fine passing the mail to the machines. Then for no apparant reason the machines loose the mail function and I have to reset everything again to get it working, and it continues to work for another few days till it fails again. I am aware that a proxy server would solve the problem but then the server machine would have to be on for the second machine tohave internet access. Any advise would be greatfully recieved.
