If you and your clients are using win98

have them make a file in note pad with the IP address and VS name

209.155.26.151 www.Donna-Drama.org
209.022.25.255 www.thisPlacesucks.com

Name it "hosts" with no .txt extensions just hosts and Place it in you
windows directory.
this will allow you to view the site online and use FP2000.

search the archives for host file.
