Lorne,

I just downloaded and installed WR8610, but got the same results.  I also
noticed there is a WR8620, should I apply that fix or is it buggy?

You might as well. That one is updated with the same
tool you use to apply the regular OS fixpacks. So you 
will need the CSF 1.41 fixtool.

I have a 5 port hub and a static IP ADSL connection.  I'd like to share

Well, no reason for such an assertion when you have yet to
figure out what the exact problem is. I can guarantee you
that if logging is turned off in the right places, then it's
really OFF!

Either logging it turned off in the wrong places or you have
forgot to turn off the trace facility in gwpm.exe. If logging
really is what gives the harddisk ticks then simply look
directly in the log to see which firewall rule that is
responsible.

I think you'll find that the harddisk ticks are caused by
something else. Maybe accounting rules?

I can assist you if you e-mail me privately or on the InJoy
mailing list.

You will have to insall some gateway software (like Injoy Gateway)
on one of the computers. The other machine will have to be assigned
a private IP address and it's access to the internet must be
routed to the machine with the gateway software.

Injoy's documentation describes how to do this.

Is there any decent freeware gateway software -- or is Injoy the
consensus/quality choice?

The WR8610 stack update provides the drivers for NAT
and VPN. The only "gotcha" is the fact that the NAT requires
a "real" IP address for each "internal" IP address that
has access to the internet. Plus the fact that the documentation
does not mention how to configure the NAT capability. There
is an IBM Redbook for AIX that does document it though.

Injoy is a good solid product for a gateway. There are
some issues concerning the firewall that have been
voiced by others on USENET. When the firewall
is not running the "real" IP address in the machine 
still responds to any and all TCP/IP packets.

What is your ADSL Unit. If it is a Cisco 675 it is very easy.

You can use the DHCP server in the Cisco unit.

Subj: Re: Networking a HP LaserJet4...

From: "Stephen Eickhoff (remove the - to reply)" <operagost@e-mail.com>

You can configure printers from any browser using WebJetAdmin. However, you
escape the fact that will probably need a really powerful server running
Windows NT to host it.

By the way, I saw some comments in this thread about DLC. You can use DLC to
print to JetDirects, but you must add the 802.2 protocol in MPTS to do so. I
recommend against it on either OS/2 or Windows NT. Instead, on NT install
TCP/IP Printing support and set up an LPD port. Use "raw" as the service name.
With OS/2, I've found it easiest to use JetAdmin and enable only TCP/IP. Then
I go into printer properties and add a new HP Network port for that printer.

Are you saying that NAT requires a *separate* "real" IP address for each
internal IP address -- in other words, if you have two machines, you
need two static IP addresses?  If not, then I guess I don't understand
what the "gotcha" really is.

Also, the Injoy docs (well, introductory blurbs actually) at their site
suggest that you need to be running a LAN already to connect separate
workstations to a single external IP connection.  Are they saying that I
need to have IBM Peer or a server-client relationship established before
their gateway/firewall combo will work?

In the abstract, it seems that it might just be easier to obtain a
second IP address.  (Although I do need a firewall.  Hmmmm...)

It's a Next Level Communications hub/router connected to a LinkSys

The Injoy Gateway program will do Address Translation from
any number (well, up to the licence limit) of private IP addresses
to a single "real" IP address.

The WR8610 stack needs one "real" IP address for each
"private" IP address. This is a real PITA if you only have
one "real" IP address available to you.

The LAN is the TCP/IP stack running on each machine that
you want to connect to the internet. The LAN can consist of
a single machine. The only network protocol you need
is TCP/IP. The IBM Peer software is not involved in
setting up the TCP/IP stacks.

If it is easier to obtain a second IP address that will work
as well. If you have a "real" IP address for each machine
you can use the firewall code built into the WR8610 stack.

Subj: Re: DSL Not Always On

From: "Walter S. Rue" <wsrue@BellAtlantic.net>

My original statement that BellAtlantic recognized only M$ Windows
clients was incomplete.  They also support certain Apple Mac clients. 
The software comes from iVasion, who is otherwise unknown to me.

But my surprise at the OS restriction leads me to wonder if a "bait and
switch" game is afoot.  None of the prominent announcements, promotions
or FAQs I could find at www.bellatlantic.com/infospeed mentioned OS
requirements.  Not even PPP was identified.  Maybe the silence was
simply because their first round of DSL service used static IP addresses
and they hadn't got round to updating the material.  But when asked to
confirm their RFC support, they had nothing to say.  Instead, they
referred me to iVasion, who replied only with a couple of Linux sites
dealing with PPP issues, perhaps trying to imply something.  Responding
to a direct question later, I finally heard one technical rep admit that
PPPoE was the protocol.  I guess I am not sure they were obfuscating
deliberately.  But some of this was clearly unprofessional and
amaturish.  Maybe M$ played a role too -- who knows!

Eventually, I found a technical rep who claimed familiarity with Linux
and, in response to an e-mail, heard from another claiming familiarity
with OS/2.  The latter assured me that connection was possible but did
not say how.  Later, after I was up and running, the rep on the phone
during the initial connection test was originally skeptical but
afterward invited me to send a description so they would have something
for future OS/2 users.

Subj: Re: DSL Not Always On

From: "Walter S. Rue" <wsrue@BellAtlantic.net>

After finally determining that PPPoE was the required protocol, "up and
running" became rather simple.  Some details might be of use.

The BellAtlantic DSL service in my area (north of Boston) is branded as
"Infospeed DSL", URL www.bellatlantic.com/infospeed.  By the way, this
was NYNEX until the recent merger, and the "Infospeed" DSL incarnation
may have been of NYNEX origin.  In addition to the data line, it
features simultaneous voice, so we retain our original phone number and
voice service.  I chose the 640kb speed for price reasons, but two
higher speeds are also available.  Instead of the static IP address I
expected (and which Mr. Glass apparently has), they use PPPoE for its
connect & disconnect functions, even though the line itself is
electrically nonswitched.  BA explained that with static addresses
Windows' Network Neighborhood somehow showed all of them together,
making them equally accessible (maybe firewalls are only for those in
the know).  So PPPoE with its connection control was their response.

From Mr. Thacker's suggestion, I downloaded Link Guard Solution's
Safefire PPP over Ethernet (SFPPP).  After clearing up questions about
which (sample) CFG files to use and which path they should be in, and
also about dissociating TCP/IP from the ethernet card, it simply worked
and continues to work.  It is true after all: this DSL is (nearly)
always on!  I should add that LGS technical support was very responsive
and knowledgable.  But one thing the iVasion clients do that SFPPP
doesn't is the one-time account setup -- establishing the userid/mailid
& password and selecting a mail server.  So BA did that for me over the
phone.  The resulting uid/pw, of course, are copied into the CFG.

Apart from the OS & protocol obfuscations, the other thing I dislike is
the requirement to change ISP.  BA states that other ISP choices may be
available later, without saying when.  But later is too late.  I could
keep ATTGlobal for e-mail only, of course, but the duplicate expense and
the repeated switching from DSL to dial-up and back would be a big
nuisance.  So, except for the unlikely event that ATT makes an ISP deal
with BA within the next few days, I'm out.  It seems that at least
e-mail continuity may be a thing of the past.

ATTGlobal mail can be downloaded from BellAtlantic.Net and vice-versa.

Until BellAtlantic.Net establishes a better dialup system (its only
available from Va to NJ), you'll probably want to keep a nationwide ISP as
backup anyhow.

Check the ADSL modem capabilities. Chances are that it can do it on its own.
I'm a happy user of Alcatel 1000 ADSL. It is a small router and has a room
for 5 
ARP entries.

What it means to me is that I can have up to 5  PCs at home configured to
have the ADSL
as a default router without need of any additional software.

Lorne,

I was reading thru some messages here and on Compuserve and I added something
that solved the problem.  What I did was add to DHCPD.CFG file the following:

option 12  <hostname>

with <hostname> being my actual hostname with no quotes.  Why this solved the
problem I'm not sure.  How one could know this without lucking out by reading
it I'm not sure either.

Lucky you!  The Next Level modem is billed as a "modem/router", but I
see nothing in the literature (or at their site) to indicate how to use
the router capabilities (if they're really there).  Nothing about how to
program it or store ARP entries.  Sh!t!  No spec sheet, and DOCs written
for morons (as seems increasingly to be the case in the MS Era:  even
when you don't understand a subject, if they at least discuss it at a
high level, you learn).

So, to be clear:  the answer is, you need two real (not local) IP

Got it.  That's what I assumed and wanted to confirm.  I'm running
WR08620, i.e. the TCP/IP v4.1 that IBM graciously err umm made freely
available on Software Choice for about four whole days last year, plus
the latest fixes (which bumps it to v4.2 or 4.3 level, I think).

If I understand you, there's *no alternative* to a second "real" IP
address -- that's the "gotcha" of the OS/2 stack that you're talking
about, isn't it?  I mean, my limited understanding (at this point) is,
that the only viable alternative is to set up a full-fledged
server-client network.

Much obliged for these clarifications, Lorne, and sorry to labor it --
but none of this is intuitive or obvious if you've never dealt with a
network before.

I took a look at that on the Russian Underground site a few days back,
also at the Zampa front-end.  Daunting!  Is there a faq anywhere that
explains setting up *rules*, i.e. "permit this type of packet, deny that
kind of packet, and you'll be protected", etc?

Subj: NIC going to sleep?

From: m.o.davis@gte.net (Mark Davis)

I have a home LAN with a mix of machines. We use a Linux box attached to a DSL
modem as our internet gateway. The other machines run Warp 4 or Win95/98 and
use tcpip and NETBIOS/NETBEUI. Samba is not loaded on the Linux box. My
problem is with my main machine running Warp 4. For about the past month or
so, the connection LED on the hub will go out. When that happens, I lose all
connections with the LAN and, naturally, with the internet. I can go to
another machine and ping the problem machine and it will "wake up" but I
cannot wake it up from the problem machine. The NIC is a 3com 3c595 Fast
Etherlink. Two other machines on the network have the same card but don't
exhibit the same symptoms, though one loses connection without losing the LED;
I can refresh its connection by unplugging the patch cable from the wall plate
and plugging it back in.

Does this sound like a hardware problem? Thanks for any suggestions.

Subj: Installing WSEB as a client?

From: Michael Taylor <miket@interact.net.au>

What is the best way to install WSeB as a client?

I have OS/2 V4 installed in a network with NT Servers. It is not a 
real Domain but more a Workgroup based network.

My C: drive is shared and I need access to the shares on other 
computers around the office.

I have experimented installing WSeB at home (two PCs - OS/2 and Win98)
and have not managed to get the Win98 PC to attach to WSeB.
It wants a pasword to connect to the IPC$ share and I don't know
how to set it!

Should I install WSeB as an additional server in the network? 
Would installing the Warp4 Peer software be a good idea rather than
the WSeB Print and File client?

We are upgrading the office PCs to SMP - does this have a bearing on 
the way I do the install/upgrade?

Current PC is 
OS/2 V4 + FP11
Matrox Productiva G100 - 2.36 drivers
S3 9C805 100MB network card.

Subj: No tcpip drivers for an older NIC?

From: jimburke@ionet.net (Jim Burke)

I have an EISA Nic made by Hewlett-Packard and I'm about to conclude that
there are no tcpip drivers written
for this particular card. (HP EISA LAN Adapter/32 272248-13411 --

Here is a directory listing of the support disk -- looking for *os2*

 Volume in drive A is LAN_DRV_424

I set up a tcpip protocol for this NIC, but if I telnet to the machine or ping 
it, it crashes.
I can see the computer on the lan but probably only through the netbios
protocol. 

If there isn't a driver written for this card, is there a chance that another
driver might work?

OS/2 uses NDIS drivers for all protocols. There are no tcpip NIC drivers for
OS/2 at all.
MPTS (MultiProtocol Transport Service) is responsible for using one NDIS
driver with
as many network protocols as you would like to use, and it can support.

There is another way, of course (using ODI drivers instead of NDIS), but this
is another story...

This is the exactly what you need!!! This is NDIS driver for OS/2

It seems to me that you have improperly configured TCP/IP stack on your
machine.
Couldn't you post following files to analyze problem:

X:\CONFIG.SYS
X:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI
X:\MPTN\BIN\SETUP.CMD

George,

Nope.  The userid and password are encrypted in the net.acc file - but
there's no way to decrypt it.

Subj: How to see a shared drive from NT workstation 4

From: "BPRL" <privata@gbper.ch>

I added to my NT domain an OS/2 Warp server machine. This machine can see
the optical Disks (IBM3995) locally attached.
My whole network is Microsoft TCP-IP. I have installed TCP on OS/2 too, and
I have shared a drive.
I can't see the shared drive nor the OS/2 machine.
What have I to do? NFS ? Is there another way?

Subj: tcpcoex.log question also y2k & tcp update

From: JHB@jita.nospam.demon.co.uk (Jim Backus)

While doing y2k updates to tcp/ip on a Warp 3 Connect installation, I 
noticed a file TCPCOEX.LOG.  What is the purpose of this file?  There 
are a number of entries of the form "Tcpcoex <time> <date>" followed 
by
"End Tcpcoex"

It seems that no MPTN update for y2k is needed for Warp 3 - is this 
correct?  It seems that Warp 3 is y2k compliant with a recent fix pack
(FP 32 or later), updates to tcp/ip (v30y2k.exe) and to UPM (IP08196) 
- is that the complete list?

Are there advantages to be gained through installing TCP/IP 4 or later
on a Warp Connect system?  How is it done?  I've got Warp 4 on another
PC so have access to TCP/IP 4.0.

Subj: Netbios over tcp/ip questions

From: Michael W. Cocke <cocke@catherders.com>

This is the first time I've ever tried to set up netbios over IP, and I 
have a few questions:

I'm trying to connect from one system to another over the internet, and 
I'd like to share drives on them using warp peer.  Questions of security
aside(I already have ipsec & pluto working - thank you Bjarne!), I'm 
having problems setting it up.

I have netbios, tcp/ip, and netbios over tcp/ip configured for the 
appropriate interfaces.  I can ping from one to the other successfully. 

My questions: Is the NET USE syntax supposed to work for drive sharing 
over this link? How?  Is there a way to check if the netbios layer is 
working, other than by trying a NET USE?

Thanks!

 Use 'netstat -r' and 'netstat -a' to inspect your routes and addresses. Are
they
OK. Also check the DHCPCD.CFG file in mptn\etc. Many people have found that
they
need to make a few modes to this before DHCP will work properly.
I have found that with WR8421 the original DHCP problems were fixed. Watch out 
for
WR8610/20, there are a few tricks to it. Check the Warp Updates page
http://www.warpupdates.de/english/warpupdates.html.
If all else fails, run a trace of the setup phase and see what shows up.

It should work if you have rfcnames.lst etc. configured.
You can do a NET VIEW to test the netbios layer.  IIRC there is also a
netbios ping somewhere (EWS?)

Copy the file NET.ACC located in \IBMLAN\INSTALL to \IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS
and Your back to installation defaults. These are USERID as your userid
and PASSWORD as your password. You now have administrative access.

Subj: Warp Server Advanced - Preview Disk

From: "Michael K Greene" <mgreene@exis.net>

I installed Warp Server 4 Advanced on an old 486-100, it is a preview version
I received from IBM years ago. I never used it before and I realize it is
only good for 60 days. If I play with the local security functions, in 60
days does it crap out and everything I have on it lost?

Yes, I know it is a preview version however running it next to my home
computer and doesn't quite make a production system. The only use I see I
will use it for - a cheap way to use my CDR to make OS/2 CDs. I can collect
my OS/2 files on the server and then boot to Win95 - burn the CD using Win95.

However, you can replace \ibmlan\acounts\net.acc with 
\ibmlan\install\net.acc to restore the original "userid" and 
"password".  This will allow access to the computer security.

You'll need to have the file & print client installed.  This will give
you a folder called Network Services, located in the 
Connections>Network folder.  In there, you'll find a Shared Resources 
and Network Connections object.  Use this to create the share.  You 
can also create shares from the command line or by right clicking on 
the printer.

Remove the NETBIOS protocol, since NETBIOS over TCP/IP will probably do 
everything you need. Setup rfcnames.lst correctly and run rfcaddr.exe after 
modifications to this file.

Assuming you are connected and have peer services installed, you will need to
share the printer   
on the OS/2 side.  I found that with my BJC-610 attached to my OS/2 box, I had 
to map it to a   
local printer port (lpt2) on the W95 side before I could print to it.  Even
so, printing from   
OS/2 to the BJC-210 attached to the W95 box is fast, but printing from the W95 
box to the   
OS/2's BJC-610 is very slow.  Of course, depending on the printer, YMMV.

If you are running MS Proxy Server, then there is no "Winsock Proxy
Client" for either Macintosh or OS/2.

Those clients will be limited to HTTP (web) (and some other
protocols).

That is, no POP (email), FTP, NNTP (news), etc.


The exception is if you can find client applications which have SOCKS
support.

If you have a Lose9x partition on the Warp box, does the same machine
drop its connection under this so-called OS as well as with Warp?

If not, then this problem may be similar to a common experience that 
some people (including myself) have had with the TCP/IP stack under
Warp.
It sounds as though it might be related, so I'll give you the solution
to
this problem and you can at least try it.

Problem: OS/2 Warp TCPIP stack ceases to function after a period of time
         after boot

Solution: The OS/2 TCPIP installer tries to place two route statements
	  in the \mptn\bin\SETUP.CMD file. One starts
	
	  route add default .......

	  and the other starts

	  route add net ........

	  When the default route is set (first line is run, the TCPIP
	  route command adds the net route transparently, so the second
          line is redundant. Simply remove the 'route add net' line and
          reboot, the problem should go away


However, it seems that as the connection LED is going out on the hub,
then
it is just possible that there might be a h/w problem. Have you tried 
changing the cable between the hub and the affected machine? 

	John.

Subj: rsh error

From: George McCabe <george.mccabe@gsfc.nasa.gov>

hello,

trying to copy a tape across the net from one DAT drive on a unix host
to another on an OS/2 host -

rsh <unix_host> -b -n "dd if=/dev/rmt/tps1d3v ibs=61440 obs=2b" | buffer
-
b10240 | tape -block 10240 write
Write tape from pipe
        -2147475456 bytes written
RSH 2047: Error DosWrite=109

note that the 'buffer' and 'tape' commands which are part of the
gtak/gtar software seems not to be the problem.  

if i repeat the operation above the same error, at the same byte,
occurs.  it's strange that OS/2 rsh would have a problem with how much
data is piped through stdin.  any ideas?

thanks, george

IIRC, it ensures that you have a consistent TCP/IP package. There is much

TCP/IP 3.0 is a small package. 4.0 has more services.

Dunno. It's not legal IMHO, if you have only one licence.

> I've got Warp 4 on another PC so have access to TCP/IP 4.0.

You can upgrade TCP/IP 3.0 to 3.1 by applying MPTS FixPak WR08210 plus
TCP/IP 3.1 CSD UN00959 (makes a complete package).
You can add a 4.0 stack with MPTS FixPak WR08423 (+ WR08424).
Upgrade the services to 4.0 with TCP/IP 3.1 & 4.0 FixPak UN_0980 (not a
complete package).
A 32-bit TCP/IP stack (4.2) is included in MPTS FixPak WR08610 (+ WR08620,
4.21).

No, there are none. This is what gave rise to the original question. 

I'm not at home now and can't experiment with the suggested changes
I've received. But nowhere in the readme's does it mention tcpip. It
talks of 802.2 protocol and netware.

Subj: Can't print to TCP/IP network printer

From: jkrim@ecrix.com

I am running Warp 4.0 Fixpak 12 and I can't seem to print to a network
attached (TCP/IP) printer from an appplication like NR/2 or Adobe Acrobat
Reader.  I have LPT1 redirected to \pipe\lpd0 and I have tried both the
name and the IP number of the print server, but the file shows up in the
printer 'Job Icon View', then after a short time the pop-up message
saying 'printer not responding' appears.

Interestingly enough, printing from an OS/2 command prompt some text file
using the 'print' command works.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Have you set up printer queue with the proper driver?

 There is something about a command issued by one who is used to being obeyed
 which enforces compliance.  It may be intonation, or possibly a more esoteric
 power, such as animal tamers are reputed to be able to exercise in
controlling
 ferocious beasts.  But it does exist, and can be used to compel even those
not
 habituated to obedience.

  Explain exactly how you did this. (I have done it myself but it is a
wasteful and ridiculous loop I put together due to a mostly Windows
shop.)

  Do you have the correct name for the "printer" in the printer's LPD
server? Each brand of printer seems to use a different one. HP prefers
"lp"; I have one that uses "postscript"; others use "printer". The
printer's internal queue name seems a dark secret, hard to come by,
buried deep within the technical (not user) manual.

  You may be re-directing directly to the printer using LPRMON, not LPD.
  As requested above, explain in excruciating detail how you set it up.

  INETVER gives the current versions of the MPTS tcpip protocol stack.
To see the current version of everything on your system run SYSLEVEL.
Make life easier by re-directing the output to a file first then use an
editor to look at the stuff. Search for TCP for tcpip components.

Subj: Re: sharing os2 printer from win95

From: jknott@ibm.net (James Knott)

I'm not sure why you don't have the icons.  However, you should still 
be able to share using the command line method or by right clicking on
the printer.  You have to be logged in before you share anything.

At least IBM documents the policy assumptions they made..

Basically, SOCKS for those that can, proxies for those that can't, NAT for
hacks..

To: Kristian Rask <krask@mediac.dk>
From: George McCabe <george.mccabe@gsfc.nasa.gov>

Kristian,  thanks for the reply.

1) does OS/2 use a DOS pipe or a pipe with a 2Gb limit?
2) is a pipeline a file?  

i think the answer to the 2nd question is No, and pipelines as used in
the OS/2 CMD shell don't have a 2Gb limit - i tested this locally by
piping 5Gb to BUFFER > NUL.  in any event there seems to be a 2Gb limit
on piping from rsh the way that i am doing it, and i can't think of a
way around it except breaking up the file into small pieces. Yuk!

Well, in any case I got it working.
I have my output port set to \pipe\lpd0 where my LPD server is the IP of
the printer and the LPD printer is the name of the printer.

I think I was having problems starting LPRPORTD.EXE, but after fiddling around
with the TCP/IP settings managed to do it.

You run <install dir>/tcpip/bin/tcpcfg.exe. This is normally run by opening 
the "OS/2 System" folder, then the "TCP/IP Internet Folder", then launching 
"TCP/IP Configuration". You do NOT want the folder for dial-up connections, 
rather the one for direct internet connection. 

You want to configure "Lan Interface 0" -- click on "[] Enable", then select 
"0 Automatically, using DHCP" if your cable co is providing IP numbers 
automatically each time you log on; or, if not, then select "0 Manually, using
.." and type in the 2 IP's needed (your cable co. will have given them to 
you). 

Note that "router" and "gateway" are the same, and "netmask" or "subnet mask" 
are the same -- but check w/ cable co. if their names don't match IBM's! 

If you have automatic IP assignment via DHCP [dynamic host configuration 
protocol?], there is a tool called  <install dir>/C:/MPTN/BIN/dhcpmon.exe with
you should put in your startup folder. (Please don't ask why it's not in the 
Internet Utilities folder...) This monitors the status of your DHCP 
connection: shows the negotiation that your computer and the cable co undergo 
to assign your IP, what the current IP is, and how much longer you have to go 
on its "lease." This will help debug errors & connections.
