Sorry you were offended.  I was refering particularly to the reference
to pktmux, which is clearly an extremely advanced and complicated
topic for someone asking such a general question.  Someone that
started hunting for a TCP/IP solution by looking at pktmux would
probably be fairly lost, don't you think?

Actually, though, i wasn't aware that Crynwr supported any coexistence
strategy for IPX and TCP/IP.  This was, after all, the basic requirement
of the initial request.  Allow me to do penance for my unintentional
slander by asking you to publicly correct me on this point.

Actually, Trumpet gets the time and date from a time server.  This 
happens via a UDP transaction.  The time obtained is in GMT which is what 
one requires for an article. Since the date (and message id) are critical 
for a news posting, I have opted not to use the PC's own time. Sorry...  I 
will try to make sure that the date is set up even if a server can't be 
found in 1.06. The work around is to make sure that the time server IP 
address is filled in.

There are, of course, lots of ways Microsoft could provide anonymous ftp 
access.  One solution Microsoft could implement TODAY is to use an OS/2
based LanMan server, install IBM TCP/IP on it, and allow the internet ftp 
access to this machine.  I currently do this on our LanMan server,
"lanman.gatech.edu", and I couldn't be happier with it.  It may be
considered "embarrassing" or "politically incorrect" to use IBM software
on a Microsoft machine but to me that is one of the beauties of LanMan.
You can mix and match software to meet your needs.  This is a real good
demonstration of that.

BTW, I keep a lot of handy LanMan utilities and other LanMan related stuff
on "lanman.gatech.edu" and "comlab.gatech.edu".

Newsgroups: comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc

I tried NCSA TELNET 2.3.0.1 with SMC EtherCard PLUS Elite 16
(8013EPC). But FTP's put (DOS to UNIX) performance is VERY SLOW.
(0.4KB/sec.) Rcp performance from DOS to UNIX is VERY SLOW too.  While
get (UNIX to DOS) performance is pretty well, (200+KB/sec.) and TELNET
works well.

I used the packet driver "8003PKDR.EXE" Ver2.03 in SuperDisk Ver.4.3
which comes with Elite16.

I also tried "free" packet driver "WD8003E.COM" Ver.9.7.0. by
R.C.Clements. But it didn't work with NCSA TELNET at all.

My configuration is:
  I/O Base Address = 300
  IRQ = 10
  RAM Base Address = CC000

Suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

We've located both the source of the shim and the author of the shim.  
A quick scan  of the shim by our DevKit expert yielded a few clues which

We are unlikely to fix the shim immediately ourselves; something about

Following is a somewhat general MS-Kermit DOS .BAT file and .INI file that
in effect issues TELNET to HostName. The file VT300.INI is part of the
file /kermit/bin/msvibm.zip  on the anonymous FTP Columbia Server at
WATSUN.CC.COLUMBIA.EDU. On the SUN you may wish to also add the following
to your SUN profile:
                     set term vt320
                     stty decctlq intr "^C" erase "^H"
where the character just before C and H is the ASCII Character (94) Caret.
This may help for some SUN functions. The SET TERM  is necessary if you
are going to use the (full-screen) vi editor.  You could set term vt100
instead if vt320 isn't recognized. The files PSUTCP.BAT and PSUTCP.INI

Date: Tue, 15 Dec 1992 02:13:47 GMT

Hi,
I can't seem to find a packet driver for D-Link's DE-220 ethernet card that 
works with BYU's ipx.com, Intel's PDipx or even D-Link's own ipxpd.com.

D-Link's packetdriver/ipx combo works great...but not in Windows 3.1 (no -w
option).  I tried using Pcktmux/pktdrv, but then netx can't find a file 
server.

I have had great success in the past getting IP and IPX to co-habitate under 
Windows (multiple sessions...the whole bit) using packet drivers, pktmux/
pktdrv and BYU's ipx.com, but this one has me stumped.

BYU's ipx loads fine but netx can't find a fileserver.  Intel's PDIPX and D-
Link's IPXPD do not find the packet driver.  Yes, all IRQ and Addresses are 
set corrrectly.

I've tried D-Link's BBS but could not find a driver that I 
hadn't tried before.

Any help will elicit grovelling thanks.

FYI: socktsr.exe corresponds to the name of our real-mode stack's sockets
interface (there could be other socktsr's out there too). We shipped socktsr
with LAN Manager 2.1, and have since renamed it to "sockets.exe" to avoid
confusion. When we release our Windows Sockets API support via "winsock.dll",
you will have to load this TSR for functionality. Both files will be 
included in the TCP/IP for Windows for Workgroups package.

There are at least 4 shipping versions that I know of; Frontier, Distinct,
NetManage, and most recently FTP Software.  Our DLL recently shipped
as part of our PCTCP 2.2 DevKit and will shortly be available via 
anonymous FTP.  Our DLL is Winsock 1.1 compliant; the others are probably
1.1 compliant also.  FTP Software can be reached at info@ftp.com;
NetManage is netmanage.com, try Boris Yanofsky (boris@netmanage.com) for
pointers.  Frontier is frontiertech.com, try Mike Calbaum 
(mike@frontiertech.com).  Unfortunately, I don't know the Distinct mail
address off the top of my head.  A contact there is Chris Bologna,
try cris@distinct.com or chris@distinct.com.

If I've left anyone out who is shipping please don't castigate me

We did post our TCP/IP stack with winsock.dll to ftp.com because they were 
the winsock archive site.  Later all the winsock archives were moved to 
Mycrodyne.com and that is where you can get all the winsock stuff: latest 
specs, test apps, and our TCP/IP stack.  The stuff that we posted was 
writen to sepc ver. 1.0B, so it is going to be outdated any day now, since 
the final version of winsock spec 1.1 should become available soon.  As 
soon as ver 1.1 spec is finalized we will be releasing new winsock.dll 
which is 1.1 compliant.

Let me guess..Windows for Workgroup, right?  Our fix for a bug in WfW's
Vredir Vxd exists on vax.ftp.com in ~pub/wfw as wfwfix.zip

Contact support@ftp.com for the password to the zip file.

For the record, WfW is eating the Findnext Int 2F calls; and is not
sharing them with other redirectors.  So we just wrote our own little
Vxd, upped its priority above Vredir, grabbed what was rightfully
ours, and passed on the rest.  Shades of Side-Kick circa 1983 :-).

I just dated myself :-).
