Network problem: FMpro under WinNT4

[Yorch]

This is not the right forum but I couldn't find the one for "Networking".

Is there any special trick on opening files as a guest in a LAN ??

This is what I am doing:

-- In application preferences enable TCP/IP protocol on both PCs: host and guest.

-- Open the master file and the related one as "Multiuser" on the host PC.

-- On guest's PC "open remote" file and in the Hosts dialog specify the host's IP address, click Ok... FMPro stars a TCP/IP connection and comes up with an empty window of files to open.!

Am I missing any step???

Thanks for any help on this...

Something between doesn't work. That is for sure.

What is between those two FM machines?

Is the 5003 getting through?

If firewall, you need to disable UDP on port 5003 where FM communicates.

Or try to enable UDP.

The net administrator just made some changes in the IP address of the host PC and everything went perfect, so there was something wrong with it !!

BTW whats the UDP :
