Wait a moment. Isn't that Multi-Protocol-Router built on top of the Netware
3.x Architecture ? So - if this company delivers an ISDN-driver ready for
Netware 3.11 servers (I don't know), shouldn't it also work with the MPR ?

First of all, Myron, I would dump DOS 4, and use DOS 5.0 along with
NETX.COM (It works with versions 3.0 and up, I believe).

Secondly, do you have in your CONFIG.SYS file the line:

SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /E:xxxx /P

And you could put in your AUTOEXEC.BAT the following:

SET COMSPEC=C:\COMMAND.COM

This is, of course, assuming you actually *have* command.com in your root
directory on C:.

Hope this helps.

When you change the mask to ff.ff.ff.00 this is the default mask for
a class C network. You don't even have to specify a mask it will default
to the above mask.

Reply-To: steven@Transact.COM (Steven List)
Organization: Transact Software

I've just had a Netware installation completed with several workstations
hung off a single Netware server.  All's well, and I bought DaVinci eMail
to use on the Netware side of our world.  Might be good, might not.  But
my problem is that my eMail and News link withe the outside world is my
good old reliable SCO XENIX box (running LAN Workplace for XENIX 386 from
Excelan - a few years old, but still reliable).  So I'd like to link the
XENIX box to the Netware server to pass mail along.

It seems that SMTP would work fine.  It's on XENIX in the LAN Workplace
package.  But the only version I've found for Netware thus far is
DaVinci's, which is ~$2500!  A bit high, just to save me logging into
the XENIX box to read my mail (we'll ignore news for the moment).

Has anyone done this?  How?  Where'd you get your software?  Any hints?

PLEASE reply by Email, since I don't get around to reading the news much
these days, and rarely read this newsgroup anyway.

While we're at it, does anyone have any reasonable (and cheap) suggestions
for how we might read our news on our Microsoft Windows workstations?

Thanks for any help.

Howdy!
     We have recently run into a problem here, and I was wondering
if anyone could help us out.  We are currently haveing problems
with the students in our student lab printing on the HP LaserJet
printer that is attached to the network.  We need some way of
controlling the student's usage of the printer, and would like to
implement some type of accounting for printing on the laserjet.  If
possible, we would like to have students come into the main office
and pay for their printing before-hand, but if this solution is not
available, we would also settle for being able to account for and
charge students for printing that they have done in the past.  (The
first option, however, would be much preferred.)
     So..., does anyone out there know of a product that will do
such a thing for us??  Will NetWare handle the accounting for the
printing, or will we have to purchase a third-party product?  We
need to implement this ASAP, so any information at all would be
appreciated!

Thanks!

I am trying to get Vista Exceed/W (3.0) running on top of Novell Lan Workplace
 (4.0) to access our Domain Name Server. The various Novell Windows utilities 
(e.g Host Presenter, IP REsolver and File Express) seem to be able to access 
the DNS quite happily but Exceed only works if the Host Name Resolution option
in the Communications Settings dialog is set to File. If I set it to Transport,
it always reports 'unable to resolve..' unless I give the numeric IP address.

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be?

Date: Wed, 30 Sep 1992 17:20:52 GMT

I'm sorry but I couldn't think of a better subject heading than this. This 
is the situation I'm faced with: We have a new faculty member coming in with 
his IBM Model 80 (already here), a Toshiba 486 laptop and an RISC 6000 
station (both on order as part of his job offer here). The issue: He would 
like to be able to transfer files back and forth between the machines. He 
would like to use our existing network (Netware 3.11) and also be able to 
connect with his workstation to the outside world, specifically to the 
supercomputing center over at Princeton. I've already installed a MCA 
10BaseT card in the desktop and have one connection. I could order a (
Xircom, or equivalent) pocket adapter for the laptop (I have run thin 
ethernet into his office) and the RISC 6000 is supposedly coming with an 
adapter for either thin or thick ethernet, as well as 10BaseT (I haven't 
worked with any of these machines so I don't know exactly what was ordered.  
This configuration would mean then all three machines are connected to the 
network. However, I suspect that it may be more feasible and economical if I 
could somehow set up a mini-net within his office, connecting the 3 machines 
together, and maintaining a single connection to the network and a 
separate connection for the RISC station to the outside. The question: Is 
this possible? feasible? Has anyone encountered such a situation? I would 
appreciate hearing any suggestions on configuring this mess. Thanks in 
advance.

Anyone have this product and if so is it working well for you? Are their
other products overlooked by PC Magazine? (they reviewed Meridian,
Opti-net, Corel, and
CBIS, with the Meridian and SCSI Express getting the ed. choice). Or
others out since
then? Anyone heard of any products that support Mac and PC on a Lan?

I'd recommend Maximus-CBCS instead.  With Max, you won't have to spend
$$$ on QuickBASIC (thus lining Mickeysoft's pockets)...Maximus only
needs a FOSSIL (such as X00) to run.  Note that both Maximus and X00
are free software, too...save a little money.  Max can run a multiline
BBS if you have some sort of multitasker...you can use DoubleDOS,
DESQview, or even Windoze.  There's also an OS/2 version of Max, so
you can run a multiline BBS under OS/2 as well.  I've been running Max
for several months now with no complaints.
