One packet driver works for both cards, and it is included on the support
disk which comes with the cards. If you don't have the support disk,
the packet driver is part of the Crynwr packet driver collection. I have
attached the HOWTOGET.IT file from that collection below...

BTW, works fine with NCSA Telnet.

		The Crynwr packet driver collection

Availability

The Crynwr packet driver collection is available by mail, by FTP, by

drivers2.zip, which contains the second half of the .ASM files.

Mail:

Columbia University distributes packet drivers by mail.  The formats
are 9-track 1600 bpi tapes in ANSI, tar, or OS SL format, or PC
diskettes (360K 5.25" and 720K 3.5").  The exact terms and conditions
have yet to be worked out, please call (212) 854-3703 for ordering
information, or write to:

The packet driver collection has its own directory devoted to it,
pd1:<msdos.pktdrvr>.  The drivers are there, along with many free
programs that use the packet drivers.

SIMTEL20 files are also available from mirror sites OAK.Oakland.Edu
