Re: Connection Wizard inflexible

Andrew,

Thanks for the suggestion. Inetwiz looked promising. But when I got to the
panel that I had to furnish a name I get the message "fubar is not a valid
name. The entry name must contain at least one character the is not a space
and cannot begin with a period. Choose a different name."

Well, I tried several names all with the same result. Any idea what may
have corrupted the machine? Any idea of how to get out of it?

Thanks

chuck
