I'm not sure exactly how you're trying to connect so.., assuming that your using one machine as a host or "proxy" to connect the 95 machines through another on line machine. the 95 machines need to know where to look to go on line. Right click the IE icon on the 95 machine, click properties, connection, click the LAN button and type in the IP address of the network card in the connected/online machine and also assign a port, 6588 works well. Also you may need a "proxy" program. there is a free one at www.analogx.com that comes with instructions. I need more info about your LAN/connection setup etc to be more specific.
