Sounds like you may have a configuration problem on the Linux boxes. Can they ping each other? > The OS/2 box is 192.168.1.1 and laptops are 2, 3, and so on.

Have no experience with OS/2, and if it's running TCP/IP see no apparent reason the connectivity you want shouldn't be possible; but why not put a current OS (i.e. FC1 or FC2) on the firewall and perhaps consider a separate server inside the firewall? Is there a compelling reason to stick with OS/2 if the rest of the environment is moving to Linux? Phil
