Ok, I have read all the stickies regarding Error 1017 (Need to patch, blah blah blah) and I cannot for the life of me correct this.
First off, here is my setup:
HOST MACHINE: Windows 98
CLIENT MACHINE: Windows XP Professional
I use Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). My connection is through my WINXP computer. If I was to use
www.whatismyip.com I have the same public IP address.
I have tried create both a LAN connection and a web-based server with the same error (1017). Every DOS window that pops up to start my server executes fine...no errors, etc. When I try a LAN connection I get the error. If I try to run it public it says LOCKED and the same 1017 message if I try to connect.
In addition, I have tried to connect
on the same computer hosting the server with the same error
What in the hell am I doing wrong?? I am getting very tired of this now.
