Ah yes well...

Aside from the router, I have two other LAN things (Printers) active.

In a Command window (StrongEd) if I do arp -a I get...

*arp -a
route-sysctl-estimate

Whatever that might mean.

Aha! I've just remembered something (Expletive) I must away and test...

My remembering was correct, On a Real hardware SARPC, Arp -a etc works
okay, but on a Virtual Acorn it doesn't, and IIRC never has.

Thanks for the thought and prompt.

Botheration! in buckets...

Dave
