Phil:

Are you using any memory managers?  The WD cards will not reserve the base
 memory
region and memory managers will grab this area to map extended memory into the
 UMB
area.  If you are, you will need to exclude the cards base memory region so that
this address space is free.  For example, if you were utilizing CEMM to create
UMBs, and you have configured the NIC to map to C8000, you would add the
 following
exclusion to the cemm.exe line in your config.sys.

device=dos\cemm.exe X=C800-CBFF noems

In the above example, your are not going to use Expanded Memory but you do wish
to provide mapped memory in the region 640k- 1024.  The X=.... parameter tells
 CEMM
to avoid the 16k region (C800-CBFF) because you will map the NIC to this
 address.

I hope this helps...

Subject:      PC Dial-in

I am curious about folks using PC Dial-in.  We have a dial-in service but it
is useful locally only.  Users who are "down-state" and try to dial in to the
PC Dial-in get returned to the DOS prompt after the continuing....

Yet these same people are able to dial-in to our campus' main dial-in for
mainframe connections...the phone lines check out ok...but it just seems that
the Banyan dial-in can't handle long distance-type calls.

We have hayes modems on both ends..identical modems ... the Optima 96.  The
users can't make contact at any speed.

That server is currently running 4.11(5).  It was running 4.11(1) and had the
same problem.  I thought upgrading to 4.11(5) might help, but it did not.

Any suggestions?

Since there have been so many problems, for those users who can afford it, I
have recommended PC Anywhere and users seem happy with that...but I would like
to get PC Dial-in working as well...

Hi, Steve !

If you're running VINES 5.0 and have the VINES option for Macintosh, you will
be able to print to any PAP-compatible postscript printer from both PC and MAC
clients.
I have no experience in connecting the specified HP III printer, but the
documentation suggests the HP 33416A communications card for that printer.
If you're just interested in printing and don't have the Mac option, there's
another sollution (hardware and software) which I described to this list a few
months ago.
I can send a copy of that mail directly to you if you want.

Regarding changining passwords in MUSER.  True, you do not have to enter the
old password, but you do have to have admin access to make the change.  I

Brynjulf,

My previous recommendations about comms buffers still stand and are my number
one recommendation.

I have also been told (by my VAR) there is a patch for the NE3200 which
affects NE3200 in use on some platforms, (I have no further details at the
moment),  the patch number is 4.11(5)FA1  your VAR should be able to obtain
it.

Does anyone know any more about this patch, like which platforms have problems
with the NE3200? What it fixes? How the symtoms maifeast themselves?  And (of
course) does it fix the problem!!

I had the same symptoms bringing up an Everex Step 486/33 with an
Adaptec 1542B controller and 2 Fujitsu 320meg drives.  When I
re-jumpered the drives to SCSI-1 vice SCSI-2 the message went away.  (I
used DOS debug & the Adaptec BIOS to format the drives (g=dc00:6).)

We have three scsi drives, 0 & 1 in the server and our tape drive is unit 6.
That works very well for us. Be sure to deal appropriately with the

We have experinced simular problems with some lap tops.  The machines
would be able to login fine once, but then would drop line while
"continuing" on any subequent attempts.  All the user had to do is reboot,
and login would work.  Apparently, VINES drivers are freaking out
after the 1rst logoff and reloading them after reboot fixes it.  This
only happend on Toshiba T2000SX laptops.

Subject:      PC Anywhere (& Kermit)

Hi all,
   I've been looking at different methods for dial in access to Banyan. I
thought the PC Dial In server option was going to be the best way, but it
seems slow after using it a while (and getting worse with each new version of
Vines).

   I tried PC Anywhere a few weeks ago and was very impressed. It has a
feature that allows regular terminal type access to a PC, that would probably
be useful for basic access to our network (should even work for Macintosh's).
Emulating the function keys requires escape sequences... has anyone written a
Kermit configuration file that maps the keyboard to match PC Anywhere? (If
not for Kermit, any other public domain communication program might be
acceptable.)

   Also, I just finished speaking with PC Anywhere tech support. They have a
new version of PC Anywhere LAN that works using Banyan network protocols (so
no longer necessary to use netbios). Is anyone using PC Anywhere LAN? How do
you like it?

Perhaps if the FR folks (which is us) cannot do it right, they ought not to do
it at all? It would seem to me to be an easy matter to print the page numbers o
n the covers (even after they are pre-printed) I thought GPO was suppose to be
the state of the Printer? This seems to me to be a minor cost problem compared
to the many slick expense publications that come on deposit. (You all know the
ones I mean.)  There are also technologies such as laser printers that can prin
t on preprinted pages, not to mention the legion of unemployed who would be uti
lized to print the numbers on. I would also like to pass on my other suggestion
 again, that to save money, GPO do away with the inspections division. Then we
won't have to check 7.5 topos in on shelflist index cards, and can go back to t
he index grids!

I can categorically assure you that the President-elect is going to have

I didn't type it, I yanked it automatically from the message I was
quoting.  I have no idea which was the real address, and I suspect either
form will bounce equally well at this point.
