Direct Cable Connection (DCC) Problem.
* Setup
Dell desktop running Windows ME setup as the Client.
IBM Thinkpad running Windows 98 (2nd edit) setup as the
Host with File Sharing.
LPT1 ports connected using Belkin DCC File Transfer
cable.

* Problem:
- After starting DCC...

- Host DCC status messages
"Waiting for Client"
"Connected via parallel cable on LPT1".

- Client DCC status messages
"Verifying user name and password"
"Connected via parallel cable on LPT1"
"Looking for shared folders..."
"DCC was unable to display the shared folders of the
Host computer. To see the shared folders, type in the name
of the Host computer."
After entering the name of the Host, the following
message appears
"Can not find Host computer" ????????????????????

- Note, the name used for the Host was found in the
>Control Panel > Network > ID panel on the Host.
