Required Level : Standard Required Version : 3.01 or later TNA 4 consists of a number of modules. These modules can run on the same machine, or on other machines on the network. From time to time the modules find it useful to communicate with each other. In order to do this they make use of a networking feature called TCP/IP. TCP/IP is basically a language that computers use to talk to each other. In computers this is called a Protocol. A number of these protocols (languages) exist, and they all have wonderfully obscure names, like NetBeui, IPX/SPX and so on. Anyway the one that TNA 4 uses is TCP/IP. This protocol was chosen because it is the most common protocol installed, and because it's also the protocol that Networks use to speak to each other. TCP/IP also makes it possible for TNA 4 to communicate with other programs, for example Email servers and Web servers. Even if you are not on a network, then it is still necessary to load TCP/IP on your computer so that the individual modules can talk to each other.
How to Install TCP/IP on your computer What is the IP number of your computer 
Important Information for Windows 95 UsersIf you are running Windows 95 then you will appreciate you have a fairly old version of the Windows line. The Networking support has been improved with each release of Windows. Thus if you are running Windows 95 it is important for you to download (from the Microsoft web site) some updates.
