Mark,

Have you created a "server list" yet? I have created a list of the
"servers: "computer name and ip address" then the dock let's me select
from that list.

Another update on this. If I make the connection from NewtsCape (either
per LAN or per WAN) everything works fine (both to/from the LAN and
to/from the Internet). If I try to dock, I get connected (works with
ethernet and WLAN), get issued an IPA, but there it stops: choose a
server with nothing to choose from. Interesting, but at least the
package installation (both LAN and Internet is working via NewtsCape).

mark.
