Networking problem

I have a Classic with a MINI EN/SC and a 6100/60 with a AAUI Transceiver both are conneted to a 10Based T ethernet hub hardwired to my router.

But when running Basilisk II on a WinXP machine the Classic shows up in the Chooser window but not the 6100/60 ?

And I've tried everything to get the 6100/60 to show and failed.

I can ping both machines from the Basilisk II and the PC (provided they are first runing a TCP/ping programme) and both Mac's can see each other. What step can I be missing? 8-o

Nothing shared on the 6100?

Forgot to add, I have a User set up and sharing is running on the 6100/60, I can also mount it's HD on the Classic's desktop, it just won't show on the Basilisk !

I discoveed that if I set 'Classsic Networking' in the Network Software Selector (control panel?) on both macines, the 6100/60 and the Basilisk running 7.5.5, then the 6100/60 (also) appears in the Basilisk chooser as follows
