I've run into this problem before.  It's essentially a hardware conflict.
I don't know about the other board, but the 3com board needs some help.

In the Dell setup (cntl-alt-enter does it for my 433d) you probably want to
disable com 2 (uses irq 3) and you must disable the memory being used by
the 3com card.  You can do this on the second screen of the setup program.
Set your card for something you can disable in setup and then disable that
range.  Then the diagnostics should work fine.

Also check that your handshaking for the modem matches what the Com port expects..
Knock up a simple cmd file and call it from your setup.cmd which uses mode ComX

Hi,
I am setting up a SMC Elite 16T for use with OS/2 2.0 and
wonder what options are available in the way of drivers.

I have heard that the 1.x drivers that ship with the card
can be used.  Is this true?

Are 2.x drivers available, and if so  where from?

Thank you,

Organization: Global Network Communication Technology Co.

For those can take the risk, I have figure out that it is possible to run
LM 2.1a as server under OS2 2.0.

The procedure is as follow :

1. install 2.1a as server(I believe this can only be done on OS2 1.3 as
   2.1a do know it is running under 2.0 and refused to install as server).

2. Detach 2.1a from the OS

3. Upgrade 1.3 to 2.0

4. Install 2.1a workstation on 2.0(under a different directory from the server)

5. Copy NETPROG and SERVICES directory from the 2.0 client directory to 
   the server directory

6. modify the necessary files(config.sys lanman.ini, protocol.ini etc.) if
   needed.

7. There you are up and running.

I don't know what kind of problem there will be but so far, so good.

In general, to install .sys type drivers into an emulated DOS window, you 
need to use the DOS_DEVICE setting in the settings notebook. Don't place 
them in your config.sys or ugly things will happen.

You can still put the .exe in your autoexec.bat. OS/2 never looks at it for 
OS/2 sessions.

[This is only the general way to install these kinds of things. If anyone 
knows any special tricks for using FTP's software feel free to pipe in.]

I'm having trouble with my telnetd server.  I was running the netware 
requestor on a separate NIC.  When telneting to the OS/2 machine, the 
following message would be received:
     OS/2 Version 2.0 (<Name of telneting machine>)
     <Name of Novell File server>/<Name of telneting machine>
     Login Failed...
     Connection closed by foreign host

After remarking out the requestor lines in config.sys, the following message 
comes up:
     OS/2 Version 2.0 (<name of teleting machine>)
     SYS0318: Message file NET.MSG cannot be found.
     No known file server.
     Login Failed...
     Connection closed by foreign host.

All the other OS/2 TCP/IP services seem to be working okay.  
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The NWREQ$ driver fault is probably what you're talking about.  The only 
way to get around this is to create a private session, load NETX, login, 
and then with the compatibility offered in a private session - this will 
not happen.  The following code fragment exemplifies this:
 
- SET CAPTURE QUEUE - 
 
 
        mov     ah, 0B8h
        mov     al, 06h
        mov     dh, 0h  ; (LPT DEVICE, 0 for LPT1, 1 for LPT2, etc)
        mov     bx, [ds:queidhigh]      ; first word of double word
        mov     cx, [ds:queidlow]       ; second word of double word
        int     21h
 
        mov     ah, 4Ch
        int     21h
 
By assembling the code fragment above, and substituting a valid netware
queue ID (this can be found in PCONSOLE) for BX and CX, you can set the
queue to any printer on the network.  The queue ID is a high-low 
(low-endian?) thingy... (by assembling...and executing) the code you can 
be guaranteed an OS/2 TRAP if used in global mode, but if used in a 
private mode - it will actually work.
 
Hope this technical diatribe helps.
 
Matt

There do appear to be NDIS drivers for the 3C507, available via
anonymous ftp from ftp.3com.com (or ftp-os2.nmsu.edu).

As for the NE2000, I think they are available from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu,
but don't quote me on that.  (Check the OS/2 Shareware BBS at
703-385-4325 as well.)

Subject: NFS problems

Date: Mon, 23 Nov 1992 19:34:44 GMT

Hi there,

I have an OS/2 machine running TCP/IP 1.2.1 and have now installed
NFS on it. Most parts of the package worked well (even in 1.2) but
since the NFS part didn't work very well in 1.2 (according to the
net) I waited for the upgrade.

I cn mount a drive to the local Sun without any major problems
I mount them with uid and gid rather than PCNFSD, which will come later.
I use the -b8000 and the -p switch to the nfsctl program.

The basic commands like dir and copy work without any problems but as
soon as I do any heavy (read real work) operations I get all sorts of
strange errors. Usually I get RETRY failure in the nfsctl program. When
I tried to copy a ~2Mbyte file I got a SYS0050. When i try to compile
using gcc all NFS functions freeze and the nfsctl fails with a SYS3175
error after a while. Due to a 000D trap (General protection fault)

As I stated previously I run 1.2.1 with the latest CSD from hobbes
for both the base and NFS. ( NFS 1.2.1 right out of the box didn't
work at all it crashed nfsctl at the first use of a mounted drive)
My system setup is a AST 486SX/20 with 10MB Ram a D-Link DE100 Ethernet
card (NE1000 compatible). I connect to a Sun IPC with two 1GB disks.
I dont think the hardware is at fault here since an NFS crash doesn't
even disrupt a VT100 session. Its not as crash-prone when there is low
load on the net or the Sun, I can't determine which is the decisive
factor.


I'd be very grateful for any help you may give.

Just put the user name as used on GEnie.  Send to domain (hope I
remember this right) genie.geis.com.  Their nameserver will figure out
how to get it to him.  Note that the user must have set up to receive
external mail.  I think they charge extra for this.

Anyway, an address would look like <user>@genie.geis.com -- not
absolutely positive about that geis part, but pretty sure.

Might want to get CSD 29511 for base TCP/IP.  It contains a couple fixes for                                                                          
PMANT, one of which has to do with starting from an icon.
