Sadly, according to Novell, there aren't virtual ODI drivers, and when I talked  
to them about it (our entire organization uses ODI with its networked PC's)  
they said that there weren't plans to write the drivers.  I told the rep that  
BYU, at least, is very interested in seeing such a thing, and he said he'd  
bring that up with the developers.  

Perhaps if all of us who want virtual ODI drivers (meaning a virtual lsl and  
virtual MLIDs) would call Novell and let them know that there is a demand, then  
they would write the drivers, or at least tell us how to do it so we can do it  
on our own.

The current solutions seems to be limited to buying the NetWare Requester for  
OS/2 for IPX and waiting for the final release of LanWorkPlace for the TCP/IP  
stack, due out, I think (disclaimer disclaimer, I don't speak for Novell) in  
November of this year.  I can't be sure, though.

The version reported by the NetWare Requester's NETX.COM (written especially  
for the private access dos session) is IBM DOS 4.00

Subject: Xircom Pocket Ethernet Adapter with OS/2 2.0 and TCP/IP 1.2
Organization: Fraunhofer Gesellschaft IITB, Karlsruhe
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 1992 08:14:54 GMT

I'm using a laptop with OS/2 2.0. To connect to the ethernet in my
office I have a Xircom Pocket Ethernet Adapter for the printer port.

The TCP/IP configuration is ok, but the NDIS driver doesn't install.
It always says 'adapter not found'.

Q1.  Is there a problem with the printer port? Does OS/2 2.0 _always_
     have the port so that no other driver can get it?

Q2.  The NDIS driver by Xircom is for 16-Bit OS/2. Does anybody know
     about problems using it with 32-Bit OS/2
     (I don't have Problems using the 16-Bit drivers for 3COM-Boards)

Please respond by email.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I have a PS/2 Model 70, 3c523 Ethernet Card, 12 Mb RAM and difficulty
getting the Netware Requester for OS/2 2.0 to work.

I can get attached and logged in to the server, but I'm have problems running
some DOS applications.  If I try to run WordPerfect it asks for the location of
WP.FIL.  If I try to run cc:Mail it blows the DOS session away.  I was able
to get Quattro Pro 3.0 to work.

I've tried both Private and Global sessions.   And booting DOS from the A:
drive.

Has anyone had problems like this, and more importantly has anyone solved
problems like this.

Rick...

That is because the default setting in DOS_VERSION for NETX.COM is 4.00. I 
have changed mine to 5.00 because the novell seems to work better with that 
setting.

Hi guys !
I want to use a domain nameserver with IBMs TCPIP !
I installed a nameserver in our network. From our unix
workstations there is no problem to use this nameserver!
But if I want to start nslookup on my OS2 PC I get the message:

Can't find server name for address 192.9.210.60: Server failed!
Default Servers are not available 

Further more nslookup has not started. 


Now the resolv file of my OS2 PC:
domain		edag.de
nameserver	192.9.210.60

If I delete the line with the nameserver in the resolv file I can
start nslookup. Now I can set a default nameserver with :

server 192.9.210.60

and query the nameserver. Is anyone using DNS with IBMs TCPIP
for OS2. Is this a known bug? Any hints?

All you need are 3 ethernet cards (thin-net), terminators and some cabling.
The buy IBM's tcpip software.  That would give you NFS for the file sharing,
TCPIP services such as mail, telnet, remote printing and news.  The print
server could be a Unix host if you wanted.  The cost would a lot less than
getting a 10-baseT hub (which I'm kinda confused as to why you would need
one....)

You must have the LAN Manager 2.1 product already, as this zipfile contains only

We haven't considered putting it up for ftp.  I don't know if there is much

I would like to see IBM release the softcopy TCP/IP manuals in .INF

Actually, you could set up our TCP/IP (with an NFS client) on OS/2 or
DOS for (I think) $175 per node if you have at least 20 such nodes.
The DOS side could be much cheaper if you only want NFS (no telnet,
ftp, lpr, bootp, etc.). I think you may be looking only at single copy
prices, while you seem to be setting up a full network.

Thanks for the support, but we don't! Back when we first did InterDrive
you had to pay a fee to use "NFS" in the name (that's why it's
"InterDrive," but the specification is public. Anyone who wants to can
produce an NFS client. Considering the plethora of TCP/IP freeware, I
think it is a good indicator of the difficulty of this task that only
commercial vendors have done so.
    
    Does Sun hold legal title to this market? Or do they "own" the
    market only by virtue of nobody else taking the trouble to code their
    own? 

B & W, FTP and Wollongong all have NFS clients for DOS; IBM and FTP have
them for OS/2. I don't know about Wollongong's offering, but I believe
all the others are home-grown.

Sorry I can't comment more on the pricing issue, but I haven't the least
idea how these things are arrived at.

I had TCP 1.2 running on OS/2 1.3.  I exported filesystems that were mounted 
on a Sun Sparc IPC.  The performance was very erratic.  Fast spurt, lon 
wait...

Someone told me to sync the time on the PC to the time on the Sun.  When I 
did this, the performance improved dramtically and there were no more 
spurts.

Their reasoning was stale file  handles.  Experts?  Chime in.

Won't this mean the TCP/IP Packets will be encapsulated in 802.2 headers, 
which in turn will be encapsulated in 802.3 headers?  This would cause a 
few problems if it were to be the case.  (Tell me I'm wrong... please. ;-)

Well, NCSA Telnet is broken!

Our Telent is a little unusual:

Normally, under DOS, we have a packet driver call IPXPKT that sends
Telnet and FTP stuff over Novell's IPX. Then a gateway sends it to
the destination.


I installed the Netware requestor, which provides IPX connections
to DOS sessions, and I load the packet driver, and then start telnet.
At first telent runs, and I can even login to the Suns, but the connection
soon goes bad. According to Telnet, it claims "network jammed" or "break
in connections". However the LAN is fine. So the packet driver must be
getting killed somehow.

We have Arcnet on our Novell LAN, but the requestor doesn't have Arcnet.
The Trxnet option seems to work instead, but that may be what's causing the
problem. (I won't hold my breath for proper Arcnet drivers for the card)

On a side note, the Novell requestor has caused an avalanche of
problems for DOS/Windows programs. Windows might start from
a DOS prompt, but not from a desktop icon. Programs have DOS versoin
problems where they didn't before...Has anyone had anything similar happen?

here's the scoop:

System configuration:
386 DX/25, 10.5 Meg RAM
Novell NE1000, int 3, port 300, NetWare Requester for OS/2 loaded and running.
WD8003E, int 5, port 280, TCP/IP 1.2.1 loaded and running on this card...
com1 enabled
ATI VGAWonder+
Everex memory expansion board with 2.5 meg extended memory (figured in with the  
total, already)

The problem?  The board is registering with its software fine, the REquester  
works, BUT, with or without the requester, and no matter which interrupt the WD  
card is on, no packets ever successfully leave the WD card, but the machine  
thinks its sending packets nonetheless, and a ping to the local host gives no  
errors.

We confirmed the lack of transmitted packets with Intel's NetSight Analyst.
The functionality of the WD cards has been confirmed in native DOS sessions  
with Novell's LanWorkPlace; the card is functional.  Both IBM and Novell have  
conversed with me for literal hours on this one.

Does anyone have any suggestions? ANY help at this point would be gratefully  
accepted.

OH, and does anyone know why ODINSUP refuses to pass packets from NDIS after  
about 15 minutes under OS/2 2.0??

Please E-mail any responses, as I usually only get to read the news about twice  
a month these days.

I'm running TCP/IP 1.2.1 (refresh level) on OS/2  2.0 ES with LAN Server
2.0 installed. My INETD super server starts the LPD daemon. When I send
a print file to the TCP server from either local or remote Internet hosts
I see a message in the INETD session showing the LPD being spawned, 
a message indicating the source of the print file, then the following
message:


Error opening the requested device for output!
: Error 0

I have three printer objects defined. Two are LAN printers on another
workstation, the third is an object that writes it's output to a file
on the TCP server.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks in advance ...
