Subject:      Capturing Broadcast Messages

  I am using the SetBroadcastMode, SendBroadcastMessage, and GetBroadcast
Message APIs with fairly good success, but with some exceptions.  I set
the mode to 3.  The program gets the messages ok, but every once in a while
the shell still pops one up on the screen before passing it to the program.
Any ideas why?  I'm using IPX 3.10 and NETX 3.26.

Subject: (Nasty?) printing problem!
Organization: GWDG, Goettingen
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 92 23:53:32 MEZ

 
Hello, fellownetters,
 
we have a nasty printing problem here. Many people in our Lan work
with an older database application. The printer output of this app
is programmed to be Epson compatible, that means ESC/p codes. Now
people here want to change to an ink jet printer which is NOT epson
compatible. I cannot change the byte stream coming from the appli-
cation, but i'm thinking of a kind of programmable replacement for
CAPTURE that converts the ESC codes to the appropriate codes for the
new printer before it sends them to the print queue. Clearly, we can't
use printdef for this as the job configuration is sent at the beginning
of a job only.
So, does anyone know of such a program, and even better, where to find?
 
TIA
Michael

The best way to do what you are trying to do is put the attach command in the
login script.  It will automatically use the password that you entered to log
into the primary server.  Check the documentation on LOGIN.EXE and the attach
command in the login script.

Hope that helps.

Subject:      Re: Novell, Unix AND Banyan w/packet drivers?

    We're accomplishing the same thing, but from a different approach.
We use "standard" IPX/NETX, FTP Inc.'s TCP/IP and Banyan Vines, with
MARKNET and RELNET to "clean out" the card before switching protocols.
We have several problems with this under MS DOS 4.01, but so far it
works like a charm under MS DOS 5.0.  The only drawback, of course, is
you can't have simultaneous connections to different protocols.

Subject:      Re: using barrels to add loo

The textbook limit for a logical ethernet segment is 1024 nodes. A logical
segment is all physical segments connected by repeaters.

In practice there will be far to much congestion with 1024 nodes on a
single segment. The rule of thumb is that their should never be more than
5% collisions on a segment. This is figured by looking at the number of
collisions compared to the packets transmited on a single network
interface. The percentages should be consistant on all machines on a given
segment. We have segments of over 50 nodes on a thin net segment and less
than .04% collision rate.

Note the 1024 rule is part of the ethernet standard and applys to thick,
thin, twisted, fiber (ethernet, Not FDDI), etc...

Don't know about the rest of your problem but in my experience, the
reason pipes tend to fail on network drives is that dos is trying to
write the intermediate files to read only directories.  The solution
with dos 5.0 is the line - set temp=c:\temp where c:\temp must exist.
Then pipe files will go there.

Hello,

   We are using Novell and tcpip using ODI and packet driver + Netware

install ODI as a boot image. And that's the problem...
We got rplodi.com in dosup5 and used it with Intel EtherExpress.
Then we get the message from rplodi
 FATAL BootRom Stamp Not found.
Perhaps should we move the BootRom elsewhere. What is strange, is that it
is working ok with ipx ...Concerning rplodi we are not able to find lots of
info.

Any clue?

Subject:      Simple problem?

        Hi, Folks

        I've got a simple problem but can not be solved!
        I use an NE2000 clone with NDIS driver on an 386 machine binding
        perfectly. Later on, I use the same card and associating files on
        an 286 machine, it fails!

        There are only one mono card and one IDE card in that 286; I configure
        the NE2000 as IRQ=3, I/O =0x300. However, I got 'Memory check failed!'
        while loading the NDIS driver.
        Could it be a compatibility problem of the NE2000 clone or IBM clone
        286 machine? Or .....

        Any advice will help.

I've found it very good.  It does file transfers as well as running remote

remember that you need a separate copy of lite for each machine on the network.
at current discount price of approx $69, that comes to $1,104...

and i hope they're not going to violate copyright by only paying for one
licensed copy of their applications.

the best bet is to talk to your regional novell sales office about educational
discounts, or call novell directly at 800-638-9273.  i wouldn't use lite to
network more than 3 or 4 workstations... and the "server" needs extra memory
for every logged in user.  security is not very good, either.  administration
of more than 3 or 4 users is much easier with the real thing...

You mean Networld '93 Boston? Last year's fees were: $ 30 for one
day of exhibits, $ 60 for two or three. One day of seminars: $ 195,
two or three days: $ 375. The seminar fees include exhibits admission.

Subject:      CD ROM Server Recommendation

Our library is considering a shared CD ROM server on a ethernet network.
They have several CDs to be accessed by multiple users.  Any recommedations
for a CD ROM server (Meridian?) or configs with a traditional file server
with a juke box CD ROM drive or multiple drives?  Advantages/disadvantages?

Thanks in advance for any information....

Subject:      Cabletron ODI

I have been trying to assist a dept. here on campus in getting their
Novell to speak to their VAX.  I suggested they run the ODI drivers
instead of IPX and Net?.  They told me that these cards would not run
with ODI drivers.  Oh, I did notice that they had to run CSPID_E.EXE
before the IPX and Net?, and I was not sure what that was for.

After all of that, my two questions.  Are there ODI drivers for
Cabletron cards (any of them)?  and  What does CSPID_E do, and would
it be possible to run CUTCP with that in order to be able to tn3270
to the VAX?

Please respond to me directly.

With all of the wonderful PD software out there, is there anything
similiar to PCAnywhere? We're wanting to allow access to al of the
students here, but without something that is cheap/free for all the
students, it will not be happening.

Thanx alot for any assistance.

Chad - you don't indicate whether you know about this already,
but - 3Com's manual for this card states that you must set the
card to 8-bit mode for this particular machine - could this be
causing your problem?  They don't say what error it will give
but they don't say that you cannot use ram addressing...
(sorry if this is "old news"...)
