Subject:      NE3200 NIC in Compaq SysPro

We just upgraded one of our Compaq SystemPro's to 4.11(5) and installed two
NE3200's.  We are having a wierd problem though.  Mnet reports that one of the
NE3200 cards reports Input errors consistently although the card appears to
work fine.  The odd thing is that the problem switches between cards when we
reboot.  We have replaced cards, cables, you name it.  A sniffer shows no
errors on the cable.

The cards are configured as follows:

Slot 3, IRQ 9-edge triggered, I/O port addr: 3800h  value: 2A

slot 5, IRQ10-edge triggered, I/O port addr: 5800h value: 2B

Note: the VINES configuration only sets the slot and IRQ,  The I/O info is
from Compaq's Inspect report.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Folks,

I know this has been ask before, but wading through old Banyan-l mail didn't

  What is the fastest Ethernet-card for a server with an EISA-bus. UTP is a

Is anyone out there in Banyan Land using CC:Mail as the standard mail system
for DOS, Windows, Mac, Unix, and terminal (vt, 3270) clients ?

We're looking to standardize on a "single" mail system, and CC:Mail seemed to
float to the top in terms of a product that would work on all our clients.

If anyone has had experience (good or bad) with CC:Mail, or has made a
simular study, I'd be interested in hearing from you.

Thanks for your time.

Subject:      Cabling Specifications

Happy New Year to all! The question today relates to 10BaseT wiring using
Level 5 UTP: If you were having any of this installed what specifications
would you use in testing this wiring? For example, I have heard the
following:

DC Resistance < 18.0 ohms (ohms/1000ft@20C)
Impedance@10Mhz of 100 +/- 15 (ohms)
Attenuation@10Mhz of 20db
Worst-Pair Near-End Crosstalk@10Mhz of 47db/min

Pardon me for also asking if the results one gets in the last two figures
(attenuation, worst-pair NEXT) should be greater than or less than what
I listed?

Where should the testing be done from? eg: end of the cable that attaches
to the PC NIC right to the actual concentrator? or, simply from wall plate
to first BIX panel? I guess we should BIX using Level 5 also, right?

Thanks!

Having read both groups for nearly a year now I would say that, if I
had to choose between Compuserve and banyan-l, I would read banyan-l.  
Compuserve, aside from charging an arm and a leg, doesn't offer anything 
you can't get right here.  The newsreaders for UNIX are also vastly

Subject:      VINES/NDIS/Compaq TRN/OS2

I'm trying to install both Lan Manager (NETBEUI) and VINES (VINES IP)
on our Lotus Notes Server.  In case you are wondering Lotus Notes is
an OS/2 application.  The Notes server will be connected to our Token-Ring
network.  We have physically separate rings for our LAN Manager and VINES
folks.  So, I'd like to install 2 compaq dualspeed token-ring cards in the
Notes server and connect one card to the Lan Man ring and the other card
to the VINES ring.

This should be possbile.  Both Lan Manager and VINES can use the NDIS spec
to access the cards.  I've run dual protocols over one card (an IBM 16/4)
and it's a breeze.  I presently have Lan Manager running on this Notes server
without difficulties.

Here is my problem.  I called Compaq to ask for some help in setting up the
PROTOCOL.INI file.  I was unsure how to specify the DRIVENAME= so that I
could address a SECOND compaq card.  They told me for Lan Manager the proper
method is DRIVERNAME=CPQTOK1$.  However, when I mentioned that I wanted to
bind VINES protocols (NDISBAN) to this second card they said it would not
work.  They mentioned that their card didn't support SNA.   I think what they
meant was their card doesn't support DLC.  At any rate they didn't have
any good explaination (or at least one that made any sense to me) for why
this won't work.  All they could say is that VINES wont work on their card
in a workstation.

Can anyone confirm or deny this.  I really think this should be possible.
I'm working thru my VAR but I'm posting here and on Compuserve as well.

Thanks,

This sounds like an earthing/static problem between the tape drive and the
main chassis.  Make sure that the server and ALL its peripherals are
connected to the same power source.  Also check to see that the SCSI cable
has the shield connected at both ends if not install an earth strap from the
tape drive chassis to the cpu chassis.

Subject:      re: Passwords & MAC problems

I have to agree with Tom that the best way to get Problems Fixed is to gather
ALL the information you can and report it to Banyan's Response Center through
your VAR - if symptoms change, make sure your var reports the changes to
Banyan.  IR 85014, mentioned ealier by John,  was reported to Banyan support
as being a problem where new user's were Unable To Login through the chooser
if the Admin forced them to change their password on the initial login.  That
problem was reproduced by Banyan's engineers, and was "officially
acknowledged" in the Banyan Known Problem Report. The fix for that problem is
currently available in patch 5.00(5)-DR-1.

The issue that's been raised over this past week, however, does not seem to
be the same problem.  I don't use Mac in my daily work, so I don't have any
personal experience that would be helpful - and I've been caught enough times
in the Chicken Little syndrome to know better than to respond when I'm not
sure of my info!

The majority of problems reported to Banyan through the Response Center turn
out to be configuration or user errors rather than VINES bugs.  When the
engineers working on it have determined which category this password issue
falls into, then that information will be officially posted in either the KPR
or the Technical Q&A report - whichever ends up being most appropriate.  If a
patch is cut, it will be noted on the patch list.

All of these docs are available to Banyan-L list members through anonymous
FTP from csus.edu.

I hope this clarifies my position as a Banyan employee who is also a Banyan-L
list member!  Feel free to call or write to me directly if not.

Can anyone out there tell me if it is possible to use an Everex

The model number of the tape drive is EV0-00830-00.
The model number of the tape controller is EV0-00833-03 which I

I have read that Banyan supports other tape controllers from
Everex such as the EV-811 QIC and EV-811 QIC-02 tape
controllers, however, I have never found these in the server
console hardware configuration options.  Do I need to get the
drivers or any additional software?  Any hints or references

Dunno if this is really relevent, but according to HP (I know, you're
laughing already) Banyan will support any peripheral once it is
certified in any box.  That is:  if HP certifies the DAT to work with
one of its Vectra servers, then the DAT is certified in ANY  platform.
I have yet to confirm this with Banyan, but it sounds good.

Happy New Year!

We are thinking of hooking two 10-baseT lans together with fiber

running Novell 3.11. The other has a MMAC-3 box with a TRMIM-T and
an IRM board and one open slot. This lan is using Banyan Vines
4.0(0). All the workstations are 386sx pc's and are running dos 5.0
and windows. Techs at Cabletron said the two can co-exist on the
same ethernet segment and gave me information on what hardware to
add to the hubs.

Can the software drivers for both Novell and Banyan be loaded at
the same time and access the same NIC on the workstations? Does
anyone have tips or hints dealing with such a configuration?

>Worst-Pair Near-End Crosstalk@10Mhz of 47db/min

I have some information stating limitations for 10baseT cabling. You should
note that level 5 UTP exceeds 10 baseT specs by a considerable margin - it's
for 100 Mbps rather than just 10 Mbps. I have used level 3 and level 4
cabling for several years, although I would be inclined to install level 5
nowdays. Here are some limits for 10BaseT:

Attenuation < 11.5 dB (@ 5 and 10 MHZ)
Noise < 999 mV
Resistance < 18.8 Ohm
NEXT       > 30.5 dB

I you are testing a circuit, you should test the whole circuit, from
beginning to end because any result outside the above figures anywhere in the
circuit will cause problems. Note that there are new EIA/ANSI standards for
building wiring, including patch panels, connectors etc..

So did anyone figure out why STDA dies periodically...because it's suddenly 
happening to me. Last I saw was something about patch EJ-1...is this the magic 
wand I need?

Thanks in advance!

Neat...

Does the Call to VnsSetNetTime() work like adjtime(), or does it just offset
the clock?
