Can you still share files and printers over a LAN if this TCP/IP setting is disabled? Esteban, yes. In fact this is my setup in my home LAN (3 systems). Only disable the File and Print Sharing in the TCP/IP --> Dial Up Adapter binding. Leave it enabled in the Favorite protocol --> LAN Adapter binding. Here, favorite protocol, can be Netbeui, IPX/SPX, or TCP/IP; whatever is running on your LAN. For me, its also TCP/IP, since this is required for the Wingate application, which allows me to share a single dial-in internet connection for the three machines. Gary
