assistant: Hi, All !;)
    Does anybody have AIOCOMX, which supports speeds more then 115200. I got
a card with FIFO ports, which can be locked at speed upto 460800, but
can`t get it work under the Novell Netware with speeds more then 115200.
Using special MOXA RESEARCH software I get a result under MS-DOS.
Any help appreciated. I`m using MPR 3.1 with IWSP4a installed under the
NW4.11.

I haven't been able to find one.  I have the Demo/Single User Novell
IntranetWare v4.11 server installed.  When I Tryed to installed the Client
software off of the CD.  Windows v3.11 WFW couldn't find the right files to
install on my workstation.  The client for Win95, OS/2, Unix, & MAC are
here,
but windows didn't find the right files to install it.  I hope this makes
sense.
     IF anyone could suggest what files (names) and "Where" I can find them.
I
would appriciate it.   I have been to Novell's web site and FTP server and
didn't find the files I needed (might have over looked them though).
     Please send information to my Internet address:  tanimal@gte.net

Write your reply.

assistant: The big risk is in the reliability of the NIC, but if you can live with
that, you should be okay. The NE-2000 is a 16-bit card, so you won't
have great speed through there, but the server can use it.
If the server is a busy, production server, adding a NIC will turn it
into a router, which adds to the processor's work, and may slow down
the server. You may benefit from separating the traffic, though, so it
may not be so bad.

My last job I had all no name NE2000's in everything..
Peak'd at 15 machines..  Only thing, get reliable no frill equipment, and
make sure they supply the NLM's for the server..  If they dont provide them,
the standard ones may work, but I would be leary of the card..
Funny thing, I just put together a low end 3.12 server with one this week..

Write your reply.

assistant: That helps in showing not that the pentium isn't transmitting, but that
the server isn't receiving.
Your frame type choices should be ETHERNET_802.3, ETHERNET_802.2, or
ETHERNET_II if you are running ethernet. If the frame type does not
match between the server and the workstation, no communication occurs.
This is why we want to know what the server says... and we are quite
surprised that the 386 can communicate with the server without the NIC
being configured on the server side!
I'm not familiar with the AUTOREP file, but that's likely to be where
the missing information comes from.

assistant: *** Quoting Jay Stewart to Rich Wonneberger dated 04-22-98 ***
(bit del)
I havent done much with 4.1 other then play around..
But with 7 CD's, I would say you need a lot of memory..
Does 4.1 still have the MONITOR util??  Load it & see how much cache buffers
you have.  If its less then 50 or 60%, add memory.  The lower it is, the
faster you should run for it..
There is a formula for figuring memory for 3.x, but its a bit different for
4.x.  I think it figured out to about 12 meg memory per 1 gig of disk space..
 For the CD's, I was told they use a larger cluster size, so they need less
memory per gig, but havent looked into confirming it..
Sorry I cant be more helpfull..

Yes it can and I do use it under 4.11. The trick is to have a SCSI adapter
that supports multiple LUN's such as the Adaptec 2940 series. You need to
load
the ASPICD and the AIC7870 driver with the lun_enable=ff option. Once you do
that, Novell should see all 7 CD-ROMs.

quickly (or the network crashes), down the server and then restart it.
I have a stack of 7 CDs attached to the server, which are mounted.  I saw
you mentioned this in your message to Colin, and wondered if this may have
something to do with my problem.  Are you able to help with this?

Use 32bit drivers for your netcards.
Set speed / cabletype and frametype (Do not use auto)
Remove unused protokols (Fx. if there's a netbui not used.)
Forget upgrade to DOS-ODI (If you can.)
(When installing use custom installation and install as less as posible.)
