W2k <-> W98 IPX/SPX Problem
While trying to play StarCraft over network, my computers aren´t able to find each other. I´ve read somewhere, that the solution to this is disabling RAS and Routing. Where are the options to disable these settings? I´m not able to find them.

Please help.
Yep, IPX/SPX is installed on both machines, they´re both on the same frame type and so on... Everything is set as it should be, it just won´t work. (This was for the quick guys who never pay attention to what the problem is and post solutions to a completely different problem. Sorry if this offends you, if it does, ignore this section. Excuse me, but I just had one too much of these answers).

Hmm ok my mistake it is IPX, but this is from the starcraft (BW) readme...
I have Windows NT. What steps should I take to make sure I have IPX configured correctly?
To make sure you have IPX configured correctly
Select "The Start Button"
Select "Settings"
Select "Control Panel"
Select "Network"
Select Protocol
Make sure the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport is loaded.
Select the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport and Select Properties, Make sure that the Frame Type is set to Ethernet 802.3.
I didnt have to do any tweaking though to get it running, simply installed IPX on both pc and it ran fine
