Quoth fit106@mis.csiro.au (Kent Fitch (Project Computing)) (in <fit106.717916762@mis.csiro.au>):
#	NFS000F: PC-NFS is disabled (cant start network; check configuration)
#
#Now, PC-NFS works fine with the regular PC-NFS device driver (VECIE6 and
#NFSVEC), and this same packet driver normally works fine with NCSA telnet,
#WATTCP, PC/TCP...
#
#Does anyone know if I have a mismatch between the PKTD.SYS, the rest of
#PC-NFS or the 3C503 packet driver?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First, the 3.0.2 PKTD.SYS should work OK with 3.5, but I'm appending a
copy of the PKTD.SYS from the 3.5 tree, just to be sure. Second, let me
explain the message. Since we can't be absolutely certain of the
quality (or the version) of the underlying driver, PCNFS.SYS carries
out a final check (just before installing the redirector) to ensure
that the MAC address is valid. Specifically, if the address is all 0's
(the initial setting) or all 1's (which sometimes results from setting
up a driver with the wrong shared memory address), the NFS000F message
is produced.
