You need a NULL MODEM cable and connected both computers through it. Otherwise
you won't be able to use the Auto232... Someone mentioned that it is possible to
use the LAN to play 2 computers by running Windows NT or W2K, and use the latest
version of Fritz 6 GUI, I don't know how to set up it... I've tried and never
succeeded.  Perhaps someone can enlighten you about this.
