It was obvious to me that "bridged" was the type of network setting I wanted, My problem is that running XP on bootcamp, I am able to connect to the LAN and run the Visual Foxpro program and access the database server and run the database, but on XP on Fusion I cannot see the LAN so I cannot run the program. The database files I need to use are on the server, As far as I can tell, the network settings are the same. I can run the program with the database files on the local hard disk, but I am getting an error message that it cannot find the files and shows the path to the server, but if I hit the ignore button it makes a successful connection to the local files. It does the same thing if I use the shortcut that uses the .ini file that contains the path to the server. It gives the error, then connects to the local files. What confuses me here is that the shortcut that uses the local .ini file doesn't have the server path anywhere in the file. Both shortcuts, the same files, work on XP running on bootcamp. Is it possible that since the bootcamp partition is on the internal disk formatted GUID and I am running Leopard and Fusion off an external disk that is formatted AFP. I am doing that because I am using the volume I had been using with the PPC which is what I had when I first installed Leopard back in November 2007.
