Andy,

I think you misunderstood the comment about adding noin-CSLG licenses for
50% cost.

This comment refferred to the many products that are NOT covered by CSLG
and are not expected to be covered by CSLG.  As new products are added to
the CSLG, your sales rep has the power to get these to you through a
"Grandfathering" program.  Talk to your rep.

Regards;

Eric

I guess out renewal fell into the lost days or else part of it is still in the
mail.

we recieved the VMS TK50 and  3 of the four paper paks in the set requiring an
AT&T agreement: SHELL-32, ULTRIX (vax) and ULTRIX (RISC) but not ULTRIX
WORSTATION (RISC).

We also did not recieve any other PAKs paper, TK50, or 9track (any media would
have been acceptable) for the set of "ULTRIX PRODUCTS" listed
nor for: "PC PRODUCTS" nor "OSF" nor "SUN PRODUCTS"

Also the addendum for the OPTIONAL PRODUCTS such as WPS-PLUS appeared signed
but withthe year filled in as 19XX.  Is that valid to be countersignbed and
returned, I am confused.

Seems to have disappeared from the CSLG PAk set.  I was told this was becuase
of "export restrictions" by our local contracts people.  Since VAX ENCRYPTION
exists as a layered product only because export restrictions make it infeasable
to ship it as part of base VMS byt a layered product could be made US only
I am puzzled.  Perhaps DEC could enter a partners program agreement with DEC to
provide it at $0.

This may be of some help.  We are not running Pathworks for the file server of
volume server part of the software.  We are able to downline load an image to
the mac from either our VAX using the Multinet software and bootp, or from our
DECstation 5000/240 using bootp.  I don't believe we have tried the IIsi yet,
but we have this working with about 10 LC II's.  We have had not problems
getting to our other mac servers and using the software like normal.  We have
even been able to use the Mathematica front end to run on a remote kernal.  Be
aware if you are not already, this all take a lot of memory on the mac.  We
have our LC II's configured with about 10Mb of memory and not much is left
after we get the image loaded.  This image is System 7 with the Mathematica
stuff included in the image.  This image is about 5 Mb which leaves about 5Mb
of memory for normal system work.  The system 6.0.7/8 image is a bit smaller.

We just got our renewal a couple of weeks ago.  We got a few ULTRIX
PAKs, but are missing PAKs for such things as DECTPU (the one I most
want to install on our brand-new ULTRIX box).  I plan to contact my
sales rep for help, but will take any help from here too! 8-)

It sure would be nice to see all programs, tech tips, etc. available in one
spot.  I have FTPed to the 3COM FTP server in the past for handy tech tips,
but at this point in time, I am unsure if that is still operative or if
something similar is planned for Microsoft LAN Manager stuff.  It is
sometimes frustrating not having a convenient place to go for help (a big
advantage for Novell users).

By the way, are there any people out there accessing this list who are
associated with Microsoft?  If so, what are the company's future plans for
supporting LAN Manager via listservs, BBS, FTPable sites, etc?

Hello all.  I've got a problem.

We're running HP's LanMan/X on an HP9000 and using their LanMan 1.1
on our PC clients (Vectras, actually).  Lately, we have experienced
a sporadic problem on logging off and then loggin back on:  the
client s/w comes back saying that it can't log off, that there's
still an active connection, when in fact there isn't.  Further,
even if you do go an log on, access is denied to the account you
just logged onto.  Rebooting the client makes the problem go away,
for a while, but that is not an acceptable solution.

Has anyone else run across this one (or something similar), and
even better, found a cure (or at least an explanation)?

Does anyone know if 3Com (or Microsoft?) would update Lan Manager's
XNSNB to run on OS/2 v2.0?  The version of XNSNB and XNSNB254 which
come with the Microsoft Upgrade Toolkit for 3Com Networks version 2
generates "TRAP" error when loaded under OS/2 v2.0.  Thanks in advance
for any information in this area.

I am assuming that you eventually get the data you are waiting for.

I have seen this message on XNS networks where I have done a TYPE file.typ
in a directory where there are a few thousand files.  Eventually you
get the data.  The "Retrying message" is the workstations way of
telling you it is worried about the slow response from the server.

I imagine this can also apply if there are slow links in a Wide area
XNS network.

I haven't tried the following suggestion, but I looked at a HEX dump
of XNSNB.  At around hex offset 10750, the PROTOCOL.INI parameters
seem to be lurking, and the ones which might help you are MINRXTIMEOUT
and MAXRXTIMEOUT.  Try putting MINRXTIMEOUT=15 and MAXRXTIMEOUT=22
in the [XNSNB_XIF] section of PROTOCOL.INI.  I am assuming seconds
are the units for these - that may not be right.

Dear Andrzej

You write:

> interface, but for ndis.

At UNI-C, Copenhagen, we use NDIS board-drivers and add a ndis->ipx
converter on top of this. Is this the one you want? In that case,
please send me your IP number in case I can send you the file
via anonymous FTP.
Otherwise you may give me a phone-no to which I can send the file via
modem?

I'm not too keen on packing binary files into mail.

Or of course, You can ask me to send the file via ordinary mail (please
specify diskette format).

My CONFIG.SYS looks like this:
DEVICE=C:\DOS-50\EMM386.SYS /F=AUTO /K=3072 /B=FFFF /E=d800-dbFF /R=AUTO
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LOKALNET -- Protocol manager
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\elnkii.dos		 -- NDIS driver
DEVICE	= C:\LOKALNET\DIS_PKT.GUP		 -- NDIS -> Packet
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\NEMM.DOS			 -- used for 3COM TCP
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\TCPDRV.DOS /I:C:\LOKALNET	 -- used for 3COM TCP
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\IPXSTUB.DOS		 -- NDIS -> IPX
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\IFCUST.SYS		 -- Generic PCTCP
DEVICE  = C:\LOKALNET\IPCUST.SYS		 -- Generic PCTCP

Further you will need a special IPX which will access the IPXSTUB.

Subject:      Trouble with Netware Remote Boot

Maybe it is not a good place to ask this question, but I do not
know any better...
We have a heterogenous (Novell Netware, DECnet & TCP/IP) network.
Most of the PCs have 3C503 cards with BootWare (Remote Boot PROM from
Lanworks Technologies, Inc.), so that they boot from Novell server, then
load TCP/IP packet driver (3c503.exe from Clarkson University), and then
ipxtcp (version of IPX that works over packet driver).
Everything worked fine until I decided to create some alternate boot images
for particular stations. It is written in the BootWare manual that I should
create BOOTCONF.SYS file containing entries specifying boot images for
particular network addresses. After doing that, all my stations refused to
boot - more precisely, they hang immediately after loading packet driver.
It is not a problem with boot images themselves, because it happens even
if I specify the same (default) image for all stations. The mere presence
of BOOTCONF.SYS seems to make trouble...
Is there any good (and knowledgeable...) soul willing to help?

Could anyone who has played this game on the PC send me a brief review?
Also, how does it compare to the arcade game?

Hi out there!
 
    Was wondering if anyone out there could help me. I am looking fot FTP sites
where I can get my hands on current game demos. I can't afford the long
distance charges to get them from the bulletin boards, and can't afford
Compuserve's excessive charges for connect time to get game demos off their
system. I have had limited success finding a few placed here and there, but I
was looking for one site that might have quite a few high quality game demos.
I am not looking for shareware games, I know plenty of sites for them already.
Can anyone out there helpe?
 
                                         Thanks in Advance,
                                               Forrest
 
By the way, I have a number of good demos, so if someone has a place for me to
post them, I would be happy to.

Is there an ftp site that's a patch archive? That would be a useful thing
(and a good FAQ item -- did I miss it?)
