First, i want to say Thank You for your patience and advice. You've really stuck with this. Please tell me who I can give an "atta-boy" to on your behalf!
Regarding ARP:
a) I can't log into the router with Telnet. It wants a username/password combo which does not seem to be my own. That is why I looked at the DHCP table to confirm MAC number previously.
b) Sveasoft provides a command line feature. When I type "/sbin/arp -a", it comes back saying it doesn't know "arp"
Edit: a bit of internet searching turned up the username/password combo. But "arp" is still not found. Here is a listing of sbin and bin:
I configured XP with the Mac's IP - same result. The Mac kept flashing up a complaint dialog about the IP overlap.
My OSX version is 10.4.6.
About bridged adapter - it lists a "Default" and an "en2". There is no "en3" choice. I am set to "en2"
Users on another forum in a similar situation had success setting MTU 1400 instead of 1500 using DrTCP. When I try this, ipconfig says my MTU is 1500, so unless there is another way to set MTU, I can't try this experiment.
Edit: unrelated subject - looking through the system logs, it seems that Parallels does a lot of logging to the windowserver.log. It says: [79] "Parallels Desktop" (0x8a5f) set hot key operating mode to normal. It seems to do this several times per minute.
