It seems 8423 is missing a TCPIP32.DLL, and therefore does not qualify as 32
bit stack. The
DLLs may be 32-bit, but that's minor detail I think. The stack is still the
'old' one and
the 86xx ones are true 32-bit 'new' BSD stacks.

At least that's what I think.

That doesn't really matter though. If 8423/8424 are stable then I'll go for
that.

I'm now in contact with an MPTS developper. Hopefully he can help me further.

From: jricci@.nospam.ibm.net (Joe Ricci)

I recently reinstalled TCPIP version 4.1 fromt he software solutions 
page.
Now attempting to open local configuration requires a name and 
password

I did not enter a password before!
How do I get through this?
Is there an IBM default host/password?

Any help would be appreciated

Well, I installed 8412. I don't think it worked, because the NET VIEW
command gives me the same message (NET3513: More data is available than
can be returned.)

However, I'm slightly worse off because the Shared Resources and
Connections icon has disappeared.  I guess that's one way to prevent the
SYS0234 error message from popping up!

How do I recreate this icon (or map the NT server drives from the
command line?)

With NET USE, I can map to the drives on the NT server (fortunately
having learned what they are called before NET VIEW overflowed).  That's
all the functionality I need at the moment, so the SYS0234 thing is now
officially academic.  However, the administrator says he'll put NetBEUI
on this weekend (he's curious to see what happens).

I am still interested in recovering the Shared Resources icon. Can
someone have a look at the properties for me, please?

Subj: Re: connect to NT server: IP08402 didn't work

From: Alon Stewart <abstewa@ibm.net>

Sorry, but I did not have time last night to explain details in my post.

The best way to use NT resources is to share it at the drive
letter level, but the default share name of C$ must be changed
to C.  The $ puts a : in the path and must confuse  OS/2.
Then if any of the directories under C are shared,
change them to "not shared'.  That will eliminate the NET3513
error and allow you to map the entire drive to a letter and
then all the folders and files are usable just like any network
drive.  The NET3513 occurs when you are attempting to use
resources at the directory level.  This is possible but not
very useful, as you have to map every directory or at least
'net use' everyone that you want to access.
[See the "net view' below.]

As for the NETBEUI protocol, most NT administrators are not
installing it on NT4.0 PC's because they don't need it to
communicate with each other.  It does use some bandwidth with
its announce, but it must be installed for the OS/2 PC to
use its resources.  I personally use one OS/2 machine, 2 NT
workstations and one NT server which has a well known forecasting package on
it.
The server only runs the one application and it is a dual processor with 1Gb
of
ram.

I map drives on all three to my OS/2 PC on boot.  One of the
workstations is a test version of the app we have on the NT server.
They must be checked daily because NT boxes can just quit working at any time. 
 I
have never had as much trouble trying to keep a process running as with this
server.  The OS is constantly
needing attention, has to be rebooted frequently and on several
occasions the entire drive structure has had to be re-formatted
and all software reloaded.  I have had to learn much more about
NT and how it works than I ever wanted to, just out of necessity.

I use pcANYWHERE, through TCP/IP, to connect and control the NT boxes because
we
load data daily and if a day is missed, it is
difficult to re-create.  So, the data has to be checked 7 days a
week.  We plan to move the app to our Sun box after the first of
the year because the NT has proven to be just too unreliable and
undependable.

The Program Object for the "local configuration" Icon that is created
is actually the "Remote Configuration" program. The properties 
notebook
for the "Local Configuration" path and file name entry should be 
TCPCFG.CMD
not TCPCFG2R.CMD (which is the remote one).

I posted the following info once, but it got lost in the mail somehow.

With NET USE I have been able to map the NT drives. Fortunately I was able
to find out their names from NET VIEW before it overflowed.  This is all
the functionality I need, so the SYS0234 question is academic.  However,
the admin will install NETBEUI, and I'll report what happens.

Could someone please give me the properties for the Shared Resource and

If you leave them alone you can pretend it's a security measure.

Stray persons "playing around" on your machine will NEVER

Putting NETBEUI onto the system will not help one iota: before our
current regime at work, with NetBIOS over TCP/IP, the NT servers used to
run *only* NEtBEUI --- but I still had the SYS0235/NET3513 errors.

Yup.  BTW, the impression I got from Uli's posting is that he thought the
*resource names* were too long; as I've already said (and you have shown
above), this is not the case.

Your network is obviously running, and exchanging SMB packets ok; all the
other suggestions you're getting are non sequiturs.  I cannot see,
therefore, that running NetBEUI as well as TCPBEUI is going to gain you
anything.

Feasible, I'm sure.  WHat's needed is someone who has a support contract
with IBM to ask about this situation.

If anyone has enough knowledge to guide Jeff (and me;-) in capturing *and
interpreting* the SMB packets, it might be possible to discover why the
large buffersful appear to break OS/2.  I did try using SMBDUMP (or
whatever it's called) but didn't really know enough to understand what
(and how) I should tell it to log, and how to interpret what it
collected.

(In the meantime, provided you know the names of the resources that you
want to share, you can include appropriate NET USE commands in your
STARTUP.CMD [or maybe it needs to go in something that's invoked from
MPTSTART]; the one thing you cannot do is to use the Shared Resources and
Network Connections object to set up these connections graphically ---
nor can you use the File & Print Client Resource Browser to look at the
resources exported from the problematical server(s).)

Your description is not quite clear. Is your NIC a ISDN-card or is it an 
ethernetcard that connects to an ISDN-router.
In the former case you need an ISDN-dialer like ISDNPM or Injoy. In the latter
case you need to configure your ISDN-router.
on www.mensys.nl you'l find a link about OS/2 and ISDN, with a description 
what you probably have to do, and links to various other related sites. Good 
luck.

   Put 'SET TCPLANG=EN_US' in your CONFIG.SYS file - that solved this issue
for me. Of course, if you are not using EN_US as your language, use the same
one that appears on the SET LANG =xx_xx line.

   I can't think of a reason why these would ever need to be different...

10baseT NIC that connects to a Ascend pipeline 75.  Note that I am now
able to connect to my UNIX machine at work via tcpip.  NETBEU.OS2 does
not load so the netbeu over TCPIP does not load which obviously makes it
impossible to connect to the NT Workstation at work.

   AFAIK, NT uses the NETBUEI (NETBIOS) over TCPIP protocol.

   In OS/2's MPTS, TCPIP and NETBIOS have to connect to a
different "Logical Adaptor Number" than NETBIOS over TCPIP:

eg.     lan0    NETBIOS
                TCPIP
        lan1    NETBIOS over TCPIP

From: "Ken" <Ken@ibm.net>

I have tcp-ip 4.1 installed and I'm puzzled by the performance compared to a
Windoze machine on my same work network.  Both have the identical network
card and mine has twice the processor as the Windows machine, if that
matters.  When I ping my network server the results on my OS/2 machine is a
steady 130 ms.  However, on the Windows machine I get 95 to 100 ms.  Any idea
why there is such a difference?

Currently, mine is configured:

    lan0    NETBIOS over TCPIP
            TCPIP
    lan1    NETBIOS

    I had them reversed earlier.  The only other difference is the

be the problem?  (I'll give it a try)

Warp reports them as 10 and 11 as that is what they realy are BIOS wise.  
Depending on your BIOS, the same slot numbers will be shown at startup (it
does 
for me).
As you say, using these 'high' numbers will allow the cards to operate 
correctly.  I must say, I only tested this with two identical cards like you,
I 
can't, however, see why it shouldn't work with two different cards.

Subj: Printing triggers DoD of In-Joy

From: Falko Tesch <falko.tesch@bigfoot.com>

Hi,

I am printing via LPR-Daemon through a pipes port (LPD0). This works 
fine but is triggers my In-Joy 2.2 SOHO to dial up my ISP.
All I can find with IPTRACE are activitiy on the port 515 (printer) 
and an unassigned port (721). I tried to exclude the using the filter 
functions from In-Joy but no change.
Anyone has a working solution (i.e. a filter.cnf file) on this 
problem?

Net view will display longer names nad comments, but will still
produce an more data error. 4K of textual information is a lot. I can
reproduce your problem on a machine with only 6 shares, as soon as
share names get to long. Please note that net view won't show (but
chokes on) shares with really long names (or commenst). Be sure to
check the list of shares and comments on the server side.

The APAR IC15963 fixed only the problem when more than 4k are avail, but
not the problem with long names which is decsribed in the docs of
ibmpeer. This APAR is only listed in IP80401 und IP800402. I'm however
not yet convinced that your problem is indeed related to the 4k problem.

Subj: Stable Peer Networking

From: tomlins@cam.org

Hi,

After many traps and hangs I now have a stable peer networking environment.
Figured many others out there may be struggling with this so I decided to post
some of what I had learned.

First my box has two network cards (nics).  One connects to a DSL modem, the
second to a local lan with a W98 and a W95 box.  Once and a while an NT box 
gets plugged into it too.  Software wise I am using Warp 4 at FP11, mpts 8620,
peer 8412, tcpip 4.1+service.  Note warp was not able to ID my nics.  I had to 

go the the vendors sites and download the latest drivers...

I had been using injoy for dialin for years without problems.  Then I
installed
the nics.  The system then acted pretty flakey.  Sometimes it would boot,
other
times trap during boot or, just as bad, hang.  On one of the rare times it 
worked I noticed (netstat -n) that both interfaces had the same hardware 
address.  A quick look in ibmcom/macs at the .nif file for the nics showed
there
was a set of options disabled that should allow me to set the slots.  I
enabled
the option, invoked mtps.exe and built the protocol.ini.  Then when the boot
worked the nics showed different hardware address.  

It still traped and hung during boot.  I turned echo on in mptn\bin\setup.cmd
and mptn\bin\mptstart.cmd.  In the config.sys I removed the > NUL from the
CALL  
that started mptstart.  This showed me that the hangs took place in either 
ifconfig or dhcpcd.  For some reason the nic's ip address could not be set.
No clues to the traps surfaced.

I switched one nic with a different type (from one the the windows boxes). 
This
got rid of the need to enable the slot option - making life simpler.  Still
hung
and trapped though.

I posted a messages about the problems.  Eventually I got a reply that helped. 

Seems that nic drivers are very sensitive to where in the config.sys they are
placed.  In my case putting them as close to the top as possible (just after
PROTMAN.OS2) worked.  Also reordered to:

DEVICE=D:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\TCPBEUI.OS2
DEVICE=D:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\NETBIOS.OS2
DEVICE=D:\IBMLAN\NETPROG\RDRHELP.200
IFS=D:\IBMLAN\NETPROG\NETWKSTA.200 /I:D:\IBMLAN /N

and added a dummy .bat just containing exit, to start a dos session to the 
startup folder. Like magic there were no more hangs or traps during boot!

Now I had to get file & print sharing working.  Luckily I had installed the
File
& Print sharing code the last time I built the system.  This avoided a nasty 
bug.  Seems this code REALLY does not like to be installed after the initial 
install.  Some people have got it work by shortening there PATH/LIBPATHs,
others
by calling PEERRMT.EXE directly.  In other cases (my previous build included) 
nothing works, and you have to reinstall...

Okay, so I conifigured using mtps.exe with

Lan0
0 tcpip
0 netbios over tcpip
1 netbeui

lan1
1 tcpip

and reran the install program for file & print so it could adjust my
config.sys.
After adjusting it (moving the nic drivers, reording, removing the > NUL) I 
rebooted.  It worked, however once in a while I got a trap 000E.  Frustrating
to say the least.  Again I posted.  Seems trap 000E is not unkown with 8412
and
8620 and NETBIOS.  After some head scratching I decided to try without
netbeui.
After all why run with two protocols when one will work?

I configured mtps.exe with 

Lan0
0 tcpip
0 netbios over tcpip

lan1
1 tcpip

And reran the file & print install program to fixup the config.sys.  After 
adjusting the results (moving the nic drivers, reording, removing the > NUL)
I rebooted and it worked.  I have not had any traps or hangs since removing
netbeui.

Lessions learned

1. get the latest drivers for the nics
2. use two different types of nics or be very sure you have the 'SLOT's setup 
   correctly - watch the boot very carefully to verify this.
3. Install File & Print sharing every time you install warp.
4. Read as much as possible about configuration see:
        http://huizen.dds.nl/~jacco2/samba/warp.html
        http://www.mit.edu/afs/athena/activity/o/os2/www/peer/WARPPEER.HTM
       
http://www.32bitsonline.com/article.php3?file=issues/199809/netbios&page=1
        http://www.flash.net/~roknrob/sea.htm
        http://members.home.net/bhubley/cableintro.html
5. Only configure what you need (do not use NETBEUI unless you need to).
6. Use the news groups - they help.

There were a few other adventures involved in getting all this to work, like 
setting up a dhcp server, a caching name server, a firewall, learning how peer 

to peer networking is used, etc.

How do you use?
You specify it in the TCP/IP configuration, and it works. Or you use
the 'route' command to set it.

Maybe OS/2 tries to do a DNS lookup? Or the computer with the printer
does a reverse lookup? You could try to add both computers to the hosts
file on both computers.

Okey. I'm on a local network, a class A net. and this net is ip
masqueraded to the internet. All I want i to access the internet, in
windows was it just to specify 10.0.0.1 as a default gateway. But in os/2
there was a several different routingtypes (eg. net, default), I have
tried a little but I cant make it work :(

'Route add default' creates a default gateway. If this works in NT this
should also work in OS/2 since the mechanisms are the same. If NT
doesn't need any additional routes neighter will OS/2.

Either set it  in hte TCP notebook or

route add default 129.34.10.1 -hopcount 1 from the help (route ? at cmd line).

so you want

route add default 10.0.0.1 -hopcount 1

then do a netstat -r at the cmd line to check that it's in the routing table.

You did follow the advice in the samba faq and reran the file & print client 
install to allow it to fixup your config.sys?  When I had problems with 
netwksta.200 not loading it was because the nic was not working OR I had
changed network protocols I was using and had not rerun the file & print

Subj: Loading WSOD over E-Business

To: comp.os.os2.networking.server@ibm.net,
From: Bob Bencivenga <benji00@ibm.net>

I get the following error message upon the initial load of WSOD 2.0 onto
E-Business:

System not at the correct base level

Does anybody know why. I would figure E-business to be the most up to
date straight out of the box.
Or is that WSOD is not compatible with E-business, I thought it was.

TIA

With IPTRACE it's not possible to trace the traffic on the external
ppp-interface (at least, I am not able to do this here). But after
Injoy has dialed out, there should be a file DOD.DMP in your Injoy
directory. Rename it to IPTRACE.DMP and then run ipformat in the same
directory. You will see one single packet that caused Injoy to dial
out.

There are no special filters necessary to prevent Injoy from dialing
while using LPR.

Subj: TCPIP 4.1 and DHCP server on Warp Client

From: "Pierre St-Jean" <stjeanp@sympatico.ca>

As anyone ever tried to force installation of DHCP Server on a Warp 4 client?

It seems possible but according to my quick research one must be willing to
play with the *.ini files that are part of the TCP 4.1 package.

Help on that subject would greatly be appreciated.

Thank You

 Unfortunately, it did not make a difference.

excerpt from the IBMLAN.INI file:
; OS/2 Peer initialization file

[networks]

  net1 = TCPBEUI$,0,LM10,100,100,14
  net2 = NETBEUI$,1,LM10,100,100,14
; This information is read by the redirector at device initialization time.

excerpt from the protocol.ini file:
[NETBIOS]

   DriverName = netbios$
   ADAPTER1 = netbeui$,1
   ADAPTER0 = tcpbeui$,0

The logical adaptor number matches up, so I believe the excerpts seem
indicate the problem to be elsewhere.

The errors I get at boot up are as follows:

sys1201 netbeui.os2
net3406 error while opening net device net1=netbeui$
net3411 error installing netwrksta.200

basically, sys1201 the problem stems from the sys1201, which
basically says that the driver did not load.  Haven't seen much
information on troubleshooting a sys1201

I had this kind of problem once, the INI files and protocol files
seemed to match up but nothing would work right.

I used the network "File and Print Client Install/Remove" utility
in the Setup -> Install/Remove to configure the network
and the software started working again. There may be some
"not very obvious" setting that is in error.

Subj: Re: setting up connectivity between Win95 and OS/2

From: jmirand2@my-deja.com

Hi, everybody.
I am new to this forum so I may not follow all the
rules.
Maybe someone could help me to get out of a problem.
I have a OS/2 machine which is connected on a peer to
peer basis to a Tektronix printer (which uses TCPIC).
The printer is also connected to a Win95 machine and
prints well from that machine.
I need to get Warp 4 to print to the network printer
using TCPIC and I have not been able to setup OS/2 to
do that.
I installed the network files, created a network
printer driver using the template, created a LPD1
port for it, placed the right printer IP address and
submask, and unfortunately it does not respond. I am
using BIDI.exe for bidirectional printer driver.
Is there some article or book on the sequence to be
followed, like an Idiot's guide to OS/2 networking?
TIA

Jos

From: "William Scarmardo" <william@scarmardo.com>

I am a high school student and decided that my mother needed to bring here
office up to speed... so I installed a small network (that wont work) ;-(

I installed Linksys Etherfast 10/100 cards in 3 computers and a connected
them to a 10 port linksys hub via RJ45 cat 5

two of the computers are running win 98, one computer has NT 4 sp5

I connected a cable modem to the uplink port on the hub to allow for
internet access from all of the computers.

I then setup netbeui and tcp/ip (using dhcp from the cable modem)....

I am able to see all of the computer on the network, view the contents of
the hard shared drives, etc... but whenever I try to copy a large file, or
maintain extended communication over the network the computer locks up.

I also noticed the hub reporting some collisions, so I purchased another
one... that does not help and the computers still freeze...

my mother is about to kill me because none of here computer are working
right... and the accounting lady can't print any checks...


please help!

If you're using the demo, it only allows one entry in the NAT database.
These connections tend to persist, so if you want to switch between two
machines on your LAN you need to go to the firewall, right click on it and
pick Reset NAT table.

The registered version is $55 US for 5 users. I love it!

Welcome to the wonderful world of Microsoft NOTworking.

If you can see all the machines and the shares and only get lockups
during large file transfers (serveral Mbyte files in a COPY command).

NOTE the "collisions" are standard in an Ethernet network. You
will always see these. It is only a problem if the "collision" 
indicator
is on solid....

The basic setup is all right if all machines are visible. Have you
tried doing transfers with only two machines running?

Try using fixed IP addressing (do not use DHCP), disconnect the cable
modem and see if the lockups clear up.

Last, make sure you have any and all patches for Win98 and WinNT
installed, or given the usual state of MS patches go back to vanilla
Win98 and WinNT SP3.....

If it still doesn't work, Install IBM's OS/2 on all the workstations 
and 
find out that there are MUCH better things in the networking field
than MicroSoft NOTworking..... :-)

Subj: Am I on the Right Track 4.1

From: heloman@my-deja.com

I am trying to get my computer ready for cable modem
installation. I recently installed a Linksys 10/100T
card. I have installed TCP/IP 4.1. When the computer
boots it states the card and driver info and ," slot
1, media_mode autodetect, tx_bufs 6, rx_bufs 6" then
I get an error msg,"DHCPSTRT: DHCP client did not get
parameters. DHCPSTRT continuing to try in

the address I think I have entered into the 'host
names' screen it doesn't answer back. I know nothing
about LAN's, but does the cable from the cable modem
company need to be installed to eliminate this error
msg? If not then WHAT am I doing wrong. If the cable
needs to be plugged into the card is there any test I
can perform w/o the cable to make sure all is working
properly. ANY and All HELP will be appreciated at
this time. I cannot call the cable people until I
know this is working correctly. Sorry for the long

You are pretty close....  I just installed the @Home
service offered by TCI in Aurora CO with the cheapo
SMC 1211TX 10/100 card...  Actually the installer
would only work/install with Win-95/NT, so I installed
it on OS/2 (made his day easy !!)...

It works GREAT with OS/2 and TCPIP 4.1 !!!

Installation should be quite simple.  Initially DHCP
will NOT work with OS/2 TCPIP/MTPS - so you really
have 2 options:

1)  Disable the DHCP, and use a static IP:

    Providing that your cable ISP has given you a
    permanant machine name (required for most cable
    modems), you can disable DHCP, and "manually"
    configure the "Network, Basic" tabbed page in
    TCPIP 4.1 with your unique IP *AND* the subnet
    mask (usually 255.255.254.0 etc).


2)  Enable DHCP, by modifying your "dhcpcd.cfg" file:

    Add the following line in the;
    C:\MPTN\ETC\dhcpcd.cfg:
    
option 12 "Cxxxxxx-A"   # My @Home Cable Modem IP

    Where "Cxxxxxx-A" is the unique network name of
    given to your machine on your ISP's network.


> When I try to 'ping' the address I think I have
> entered into the 'host names' screen it doesn't
> answer back.

First try the above, also ensure that the TCPIP
config tabs are filled out correctly:

"Network, Basic" = Interface Enabled with either:
                   "Use DHCP" or

                   "Manually" using your static IP
                              as mentioned above.


"Routing"        = Route type set to "default"

                   "Router Address" = Your ISP's
                           router IP address

                   "Metric Count" set to "1"

"Hosts"          = "This Computers Name" is the
                           "Cxxxxxx-A" name for
                           your computer.

                   "Local Domain Name" is the
                           name of your ISP's
                           net
                    eg: "cxxxxxx-a.city.st.home.com"
                    would be "city.st.home.com"

                   "Add" the "NameServer Address"
                   These are your provider's DNS
                   IP addresses (usually a primary
                   and secondary backup DNS).

Any CAT-5 RJ-45 cable will work....

I'm sure that you DO have a cable running between
the modem and your computer ??? :)

The real test is in getting the damn thing to work !!!

there's a useless statement !!)  You may also want
to try the USENET group:

athome.users-os2

Though setup for @home, it is a good source for cable
modems and OS/2 info.


If you need further assistance, feel free to e-mail me.

Subj: telnetd and screen size

From: Thomas Voydanoff <tvoydan@systechcorp.com>

I am working on a custom telnet client that logs into an OS/2 machine
with the standard telnet daemon running and starts an application on the
OS/2 machine. When this app starts, I get a ton of data (10K+ ?) drawing
what I believe to be the entire 80 by 25 screen (cursor position,
attribute bytes). I really don't need all this data (for reasons I'd
rather not go into here) and it slows down my client telnet startup
tremendously.  The actual usable size of the OS/2 app is only 30
characters wide by 10 rows. So my question is this:

Can I tell telnetd to limit the size of the screen to my usable size
rather than the default VT100 sizes?
Can my OS/2 application do this via some of the VIOSetMode calls when it
starts?

Thanks in advance for any help.

correct...  to get the settings for the card, you can always read the inf
(???  not to sure about that) file that defines all acceptable parameters
for the card.  Location for these files are in the same directory as the
network card drivers: c:\ibmcom\macs (your milage may vary).

From: "Nathan Burridge" <nathan@firsteastern.com>

in my experience, you need to configure both.

setup hosts file
then add hosts in the rfcaddr.lst file, which is equivelant to lmhosts under
nt. to do this, you need to use mptn for best results.

i had problems with nt connectivity with my os2 requester until I ensured
that both files were configured.

My cablemodem was just replaced with  a Com21 that uses dynamic IP addressing
instead of static - now I can't get to my web pages, Telnet or FTP into my

Subj: Re: Cablemodem now dynamic was static - no FTP

From: "Do not e-mail to, student" <student@sau.edu>

There are some utilities to find out your IP address. Put up a web page at the
ISP. Use an IP Poster code in your web page. It will say when your machine is
logged in and its current IP.  Usually your option of static or dynamic IP
address is really up to the ISP service. I am on a cable modem, but they have
it
so you can either go static or dynamic.

Most cable modem services are for "Home" use. They do not want people having a
web server, FTP and etc, at least not at the $40.00 or less monthly charge.
For
that, they will be glad to sell you the "Business" package at a higher cost. 
I
use @home  formerly TCI, Now AT&T. They will monitor traffic I am told, and I
guess if they spot someone with a high traffic ftp or web or what ever server,
they might get upset and take action with you. For just your own use to move
files between home, work, friends, probably no big deal. Usually your upload
or
traffic going out of your computer to the net is far less than your download.

I am sure you can find some shareware os/2 utilities to get your IP address.
in the windozes world, I beleive it was called QVT something. among things, it
had a ftp server that when started, it would figure out what the ip address
was.
you could run this in a win/os2 session to figure out your ip address.

dynamic ip, usually some type of form of dhcp assignment / server, your IP
might
still be "fixed". Some dhcp servers will assign an ip address once, and your
system keeps it. Some will assign it everytime you turn on and connect, others
will hold it reserver for your machine for X number of days.

Easiest way might be to look into some type of IP poster built into a webpage
and
put that page up on your ISP, so when your computer is online, you or anyone
can
check that webpage to get your current IP. Else see if your service will make
it
static for you.

I am at school in a lab so do not e-mail to the default return address.
Best of luck,

From: "Do not e-mail to, student" <student@sau.edu>

They have a verson to link a LAN to the internet via a modem and another
verson to link it over LAN to LAn ( Cable Modem or asdl )

I have also used Sygate. I would use sygate for the windozes world,  and
InJoy for the OS/2 system. I have purchased a 5 user verson of InJoy for
dialup links and the 10 user for the cable modem.  My TCI cable modem
link is a little unstable in my area, so I am having some small problems
getting my InJoy running like I want for the Cable modem.

Windows 98 SE  verson has that function built in.

I'm new around here, so maybe I'm missing something, but I believe one way
to find out your IP address is to type 

netstat -r

at an OS/2 prompt.  The "router" addresses listed are your current IP
addresses.

Generally, netstat -a provides a cleaner output for your current IP.

Just to let anybody know If you start out with WSOD #2 disk then this
problem doesn't happen. Disk 1 is for loading of any fixes that are
needed.
Disk #2 loads the software.

Subj: Help!  Drive Mapping to NT Server from NT/W98/W95??

From: junkster@nospam.rochester.rr.com (Benjamin Schollnick)

I need some help!

I'm trying to drive map to a server that has Microsoft Windows 
Networking
& TCPIP installed.  Unfornately, there is a firewall/router inbetween 
the two 
machines, which kills Netbeui (Microsoft Windows Networking) 
transmissions.

So, is there someway from a Win NT system to drive map a system
using TCPIP?

I've done it with OS/2 machines (Either use "Netbeui over TCPIP", or
straight TCPIP networking), but haven't found a way to do it via NT.

And ahead of time, FTP isn't going to cut it. >g<  It has to be a 
drive
mounting...

InJoy Firewall is the product for connecting multiple computers to a cable

I purchased InJoy Firewall a month ago and I am thrilled with it's
performance and functionality.  I was using Internet Gate before but was
having all sorts of problems with it.  I especially like the fact that I do
not need to specify a proxy in Netscape.

YES i'm running a warp4 us fp 11 standard tcp/ip on this mschine witout

Microsoft Windows Network uses both NetBEUI and TCP/IP.  Microsoft calls
this NBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP).

My guess is that the firewall is blocking the TCP/IP ports that you need
to do NETBIOS  I beleive that they are 135, 136, 137, 138 and 139.  Not
sure.

I think I would have picked another number since that's the magic number for
your loopback interface.  That said, I assume your loopback is enabled?  :-)

That one's simple.  Get fixpak #1 for DB2 v6.1 (okay, so it's not out yet ...
:->  It should be soon!).  I think that is the exact problem that I fixed (at
least I know of the surrounding circumstances).  At least if you mean "Visual
Age for Java" where you said "Visual Java".  ;-)  <sigh>  My last bugfix on
OS/2... :-)  (I'm not, however, at liberty to say whose bug it was that I
fixed - although I'll strongly hint that I was originally doing everything
according to spec until something went whacky and the spec suddenly changed.)

In the meantime, may I recommend grep?  ;-)

I don't believe so. (That the firewall is blocking it)

The problem is, I don't see that as a option.

I checked the NT Server CDROM, and don't recall seeing that
as a protocol option?!?!?!?

Is it a standard option/driver on the CDROM?  Or part of a specialized
isntall? etc?

I'll double check today at work, now at least I have a Name to work 
with
and will hopefully recognize it by name.

It sounds like you may be confusing NetBIOS with NetBEUI

*****************************
NetBIOS is an API (Application Programming Interface) that provides a
standard interface for programs to use to communicate over a network. It is
not a transport protocol. Most (all?) current (pre-NT5) MS networking
relies on NetBIOS connections. 

NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) is a very simple transport
protocol. It doesn't support any form of routing and all communications are
initiated via broadcasts. So it can only be used on a single segment and
the volume of broadcast traffic, in a large network, can cause serious
performance problems. In general, it is the easiest protocol to implement
for full MS networking in a small network and for RAS connections.

IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequential Packet Exchange) is a
routable transport protocol. It was made very popular by (and developed
by?) Novell and is commonly used by networkable games (unfortunately). The
MS version provides a NetBIOS over IPX, so you can provide full MS network
functionality with this protocol. IPX/SPX is commonly considered to be a
chatty protocol. Like NetBEUI, IPX/SPX is simple to configure (on a single
network segment, it usually requires no configuration). However, because
IPX/SPX is routable, it isn't limited to a single segment.

TCP/IP (Transport Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) is the common name
for a suite of protocols based on IP. IP is a routable transport protocol.
MS's implementation of TCP/IP provides NBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP), which
allows full MS networking over TCP/IP. It is, of course, the protocol used
on the Internet and is rapidly becoming the transport protocol of choice in
many large networks. TCP/IP always requires at least some configuration. In
many cases, this configuration can be automated (DHCP, PPP, etc), but
someone has to know how to set up the automation.
*****************************

Assuming you have IP connectivity, proper name resolution, and no routers
blocking the NBT ports (UDP 137, 138 & TCP 139), you can obtain full MS
Network functionality on a TCP/IP only network.

Can you ping the remote machine by IP?
Can you ping the remote machine by its computer name?
Can you use 'nbtstat -A <IP>' to get a name list from the remote computer?
Can you use 'net view \\server' to view the remote computer's shares?
Can you use 'net use * \\server\share' to connect to the remote computer?

Which, if any, of these fails?
What error message do you get on failure?

	EDS, is describing the MS networking, in these terms...
	I'll do some more investigating, and try to disprove their

1) Full TCPIP support on the network, and yes, it's configured 
correctly,
so pinging by IP or via DNS works.

2) No idea on NBTSTAT

Subj: Re: Help!  Drive Mapping to NT Server from NT/W98/W95??

From: "chris" <lammie@clara.net>

Which is it though, a firewall or a router?

The router, unless it has filters defined will forward directed NETBios
queries (therefore you need a WINS server / LMHOSTS file to resolve NETBios
names on the same network as the client.  Netbios is routeable if you
encapsulate it over tcp/ip....

If it's a firewall, other than opening 137,8 & 9 you will not be able to map
a drive.  Period.  You could always FTP in etc but it involves a bit more
effort.

John is entirely correct, Netbeiu was not designed to be routeable and I
know of no way to do so other than bridging.

Subj: OS/2 to NT Server 4 connectivity

From: "Murphy, Scott [FITZ3:9D15:EXCH]" <scott5@americasm01.nt.com>

I need to get an OS/2 Warp 4 machine to map drives from an NT Server
running  NT 4.0 service pack 5.

Does anybody out there have a cookbook recipie for this type of
connectivity?

I have not had any luck  so far and I am not an OS/2 expert or an NT
expert. My
background is Unix, so this is quite a new networking mix for me.

Just to add flavour to the pot, the OS/2 machine is on a different
network than the NT
machine.I saw some mention of tunneling NetBEUI through TCP (TCPBEUI?)
in an
article, on an OS/2 page, but could not figure out how to manage any
of this.

Given a couple of the posts, I am not the only person trying to do
this. If anyone who
reads this has any ideas, I would be very interested in hearing them.

Some things I am wondering are:
1) Do I need some FixPaks (what ones and where do I find them)?
2)

Thanks in advance,
Scott

You'll need Netbios over TCP/IP and other changes to your IBMLAN.INI
here is a site that explains this setup very well.
  http://www.mit.edu/activities/os2/peer/WARPPEER.HTM

...yet another site you may want to reference also is at:
  http://www.flash.net/~roknrob/sea.htm
 ...this mentions about the "LMAnnounce" parameter to set to browser
     the resources on the "W" OS.

Also after words you might want to add the Domain name for the NT
workstation to your IBMLAN.INI on the OS/2 machine. The file is 
under \IBMLAN directory, use the OS/2 Editor "E" or "Tedit"
and look for "OTHDOMAIN" and added the names (e.g. WORKGROUP, etc)
be sure to seperate from the other with a comma ",".
Hope this helps.

  
                                      Tony,

I just went through this -- except for the part about crossing networks.
Also there is one outstanding issue for me -- whether NetBEUI is necessary
on the NT server. (For anyone following that saga, the admin fell ill, and did
not install it last weekend, or since.)

You need to install TCP/IP and NetBIOS Over TCP/IP for the LAN adapter you
are using.

You need to install File and Client Print Services from the OS/2
installation disk. This will give you access to the LAN Server commands
described in the OS/2 Warp Command Reference.

You may or may not have to install upgrades to TCP/IP (LATEST41.EXE), MPTS
(WO8424), and File & Client (IP8412). While getting my own system running
I installed these in a haphazard manner, perhaps unnecessarily since it
was to solve a different problem (which it didn't anyway) -- and I had
some difficulties: 

- the File and Client Services installation routine did not like the MPTS
upgrade and I had to use a work-around;

- 8412 screwed up the icons in my File and Client Services folder and I
have not found a way to recover from that.

I recommend you start by installing File & Client and see how it goes.
Then upgrade to 8402 if necessary, and then upgrade to 8412 if necessary,
but select the backup option.  then upgrade MPTS and TCP/IP if necessary.
But I won't swear that's the right sequence either!

To connect to the network, use the LAN Server Logon icon in the File and
Client Services folder.

To map to the server, first find the server name and the name of the
resource (the drive you want to map to) -- get these from admin, or 
run 

NET VIEW 

from a command prompt to get the server name, and 

NET VIEW \\your-server

to get the resource names.  The second command may give you a NET3513
error (More data is available) AKA SYS0234 -- that's the one NetBEUI mayor
may not solve.

Finally, to map the drive, 

NET USE D: \\your-server\resource-name


Good luck!

I am going to change the IP number for the phantom card to 127.0.0.2..  The
first number was just to see if it made a difference which it did, much to my

Ah the joy of firm specs.  I keep trying to use the full name for "Visual Age
For Java" but I type so slowly that I forget the full name before I get to
the end.  At least DB2 is short and sweet, although one might ask was there a
DB1 and will there be a DB3  On a more serious note how will one (me in
particular) know when the fixpack is available.  Meanwhile I am reading and
slowly plodding ahead.  Still love that SQL.

Thanks for the assistance..  It definitely got me ahead.
