Hi everyone,

I've got a small lan of Win95 PCs, all of them connected to a
10BASE-2/T hub through UTP cable with RJ45 connectors.
The problem is that when i try to connect my Fujitsu server, running
SCO OS5 using the same type of cable to the same hub none of the win95
clients can telnet or even ping to the server nor does the server to
the PCs. But when i connect just one Win95 PC to the server directly
using coaxial cable with BNC connectors ie a piece of cable from rhe
pc to the server . Both machines can talk each other, if i change the
cable to the same one used on the lan those two machine DO NOT talk
again ????.

please help
