You have to install netfinity and enable the RWC  feature
during installation. If you will access the remote machine
by dial-up, both machines must have the serial driver
enabled. If you use TCP/IP to connect to the Internet
and you want to use that route to control the remote
machine you have to enable the TCP/IP driver.

AFAIUI (As far as I understand it) the remote machine
has to have a "real" IP address that is visible on
the Internet (or perhaps VPN to access the remote
machine through a gateway).

From another machine (that also has Netfinity installed) you
use the Remote System Manager (?) and open up the
system you want to remote control. This displays the
Netfinity Window for that machine and you then open
up the Remote Workstation Control icon.

It works with dial-up and TCP/IP. I tried it with NETBIOS
on a local LAN and it did not work.

The screen refresh can be DEADLY SLOW on a slow
connection (something less than a LAN connection,
cable modem, or ADSL)

Subj: "connection lost" with samba as server! Why?

From: Joerg Desch <joerg.desch@gmx.net>

I have still the same problem. I can't use OS/2 (unpatched Warp4 us) for
my every day work with a samba (1.9.18) server running on linux. There
are two big problems.

First, it is nearly unpossible to copy large files from or to the
server. Most tries failes after 5MB. In a few cases it reaches
20-30MB. But than, the software reports that the "network connection is
lost". The samba logfile reports, that the client has reconnected, but
the network drive is dead now. In most cases the other network drives
are ok.

The second problem is a little bit harder. Some times I can't enter some
subdirectories. It isn't important who's the owner or who's the
creator. And it doesn't depend on the OS with which the directory was
created.

The access right are ok, and sometime, I can enter the directory and
therefore another directory is `dead'. 

The hardware and the network are ok. I've used this system as netware
client for several years without trouble.

The PPP.EXE program can be run as a server. Check
the documentation...

TCPHELP PPP

The link to "options" covers all the arcane, involuted
settings necessary...

There is also a file on http://hobbes.nmsu.edu with
a name like "tserve" that provides a simpler method
of configuring a server. This was originally shareware
but I believe the authors have now released it as 
freeware.

If you want to spend the big bucks, there is a PPP
server add on from IBM that is available through
Software Choice (paid subscription service).

Subj: 2 Warp boxes via 'lanlink' cable peer-peer??

From: steeltoe@kickass.com

Can this be done simply and easily? I need to drag files from my new 
box,
which is rapidly filling up, to my old box. Both have warp4.0. I used 
to use
an old DOS program to work the 'lanlink' parallel cable deal- it beat 
using floppies.
Now is the first time I actually have Warp 4.0 on both machines, so 
I'm tempted
to hook up via Peer-to-peer. Just looked at 'warp-info' Commands, 
etc.- no simple
deal is offered or discussed.

I just want to share a drive from the remote box so I can drag files 
to it, as you no
doubt guessed. Is this just too quaint a prospect to deal with, or 
might it be worth
persuing at present, given the pressure here (124mb and falling 
fast!).

Thanx a 'thou,
Vacuo

Installing "Peer to Peer" requires the installation of the
"File and Print Sharing" client (which will use up disk space)
and works best with regular ethernet cards. 

There is a parallel port driver that can use the "Laplink" 
cable rather than ethernet cards.

The problem with this route is that installing the "File
and Print sharing" client does not work with long lines
in the config.sys file. There have been lots of posts
on this subject and I don't remember a method that
really works to avoid the problem. You have to edit
your config.sys file and make sure no line in the file
exceeds a length of 200 characters or so. Save a
copy of the original so you can add in the changes
made by the client installation to the original.

After that you can install the client using the "install.cmd"
file that is in the root directory of the Warp 4 CD.

Add the new lines and entries in LIBPATH, PATH etc
to your original config.sys and reboot to get your
system back.

 Um, if you want to the Netfinity Client that comes with OS/2, get the latest
update. You need Netfinity Manager at the 'driving'  end. This comes free
with IBM servers or else you have to buy it.
RSM was PolyPM and is an entirely separate product. They had a client with
Warp4 but it is customised and will only work with a manager that IBM has.
PolyPM is another possibilty, also Ridax. There are others, each with various
features.

Oof!  PROTOCOL.INI was messed up.  Somehow NULLNDIS crept back into the
picture -- unbidden, AFAIK.  Very odd.  As odd as that extra "route add
-net" spec that appears when TCPCFG2 writes a "route add default" spec,
which sometimes is benign but other times needs to be deleted to get
connectivity.  All bewildering to a LAN newbie.

Netfinity manager comes with Warp Server. The client code 
comes with Warp 4. You can also buy the more complete Tivoli 
TME 10 product.

The remote control works very nicely over a lan, even over 
slow WAN links.

If you have 8620 MPTS fixpack applied you can leave these lines
in your config.sys. The trap when NetBIOS sockets are active is
solved in this fixpack.

From: jimburke@ionet.net (Jim Burke)

I am going to see where my system is with regard to the updates for MPTS and
the latest stacks.
I have the feeling that my tcpip 4.1 install didn't happen quite right. 
Is is possible to install 4.1 without using Feature Install?

Subj: Bypassing local logon

From: Scott Vetter <svetter@ameritech.net>

I normally start OS/2 V4 with "Start file and print client", "TCP/IP
startup" as well as "File and print client workstation logon".  If I
don't start the "file and print client workstation logon", I take it I
won't get the "local logon" prompt which asks for the UserID and
Password?  If this is true, then what name will this machine be given.
If not name is given is it possible for a default username and password
to be given?  What I want to do is be able to bypass the login prompts.

Thanks,

Scott

From: Jeff Proefrock <jeffp@isdwhq.com>

As recommended from an earlier post, I downloaded TSERVE and have been
trying to make it work for me as a ppp server.  I have gotten mixed
results.  It seems to have trouble initializing the modem most of the
time.  It lowers the DTR for 5 seconds, brings it back up then times out
with an error 14.  Then other times it will initialize fine.  I thought
at first it was the modem, but I've tried 4 different modems now with
the same results.  Anyone out there had the same experiance?

In case it matters, I'm running Warp 4/FP6.

If you don't start the "Start File and Print Client", the "File and 
Print
Client Workstation Loogon" will start it before asking for
the ID and Password.

If you don't start either of the "File and Print Client" things you
will not get a Logon prompt.

If you just start the "Start File and Print Client" you will not
get a Logon prompt but the Requester service will be running
and the machine will appear on the network to other
SMB (NETBIOS) machines.

If you want to automatically log on to the "FIle and Print Client"
during startup, the easiest way is to place a 
LOGON command in the startup.cmd file that has the
user ID and password specified in it.

LOGON MY-ID /P:my-password

I got exactly the same problem with TServe well back ago (2.5 years?) when I
tried it for the first time. Further investigations showed that rougly half
of all communication programs I tried displayed the same problem (but another
half worked properly). It looks like a bug in some standard comms library
used by different OS/2 development tools (Borland?). It was under Warp 4
FP1-3 I beleive, with USR Courier 33,600 modem. Since I failed to workaround
this problem, I switched to aDialIn (now discontinued) which worked for me
very well for a long time. More recently I replaced aDialIn with PPPServ, a
simple yet flexible program written by a friend of mine on my request. It
includes many features I need, but I am not sure they are useful for anybody
else.

As a state-of-the-art solution I can recommend SafeFirePPP:

This one is shareware, not freeware though.

I have installed TCP/IP 4.1 without FI. Just unpacked tcp41.zip into
temporary directory
(two subdirectories were created - mpts and tcpip), ran mpts\install.cmd,
rebooted,
ran tcpip\install.cmd, rebooted... That's all.

It means you have the Tivoli code to be an endpoint. If your firm has
implemented IBM Tivoli, this can be useful. If it doesn't, it isn't.

If you don't know what Tivoli is, I would expect you don't have it.

Information on what Tivoli is (supposed to be) can be found under
http://www.tivoli.com.

If you're not worried about security issues, you can do it from the
STARTUP.CMD file (but your password will be stored and diplayed at
each boot, in plain text).

Add this line to the startup.cmd file:

logon <username> /P:<password>

This will automatically start the Requester sevices, and log you on to
the system.

NOTE This only affects the Peer to Peer services. There is no logon
needed for the TCP/IP services .. they just start and run.

Subj: Drivers for Kingston KNE100TX NIC and WARP4.0

Does anyone know where can I get drivers for Kingston KNE100TX NIC?

I checked the IBM driver pages, but it referred me to Kingston site, where 
there are no drivers despite claims in the card manual and the card 
brochure, that OS/2 WARP is supported.

TSERVE uses RXCOMM library to control modem. This library
isn't very good.

To tell the true if there are no needs to _very_ secure incoming
calls and there are no big number of clients you can use usual
PPP.EXE program as a server without additional programs.

Frank ..

I think you will find that the omni driver that is on their page will
support it as well as the later one..  Maybe I'm confused, but if you
look closely at the site, the driver for OS/2 is a universal thingee..

If my memory is correct, the older one worked fine with the 100.  We
used a number of the 100 cards with it.  Then along came the 110.  The
driver for the 100 bombed on the 110.  If my memory is correct, we got the
later one for the 110 and it worked with the 100 as well. but that's just
a foggy memory...

I may be all wet on that part.

At any rate, there is nothing, I think, lost if you download that later
universal driver and try it.  When it loads it even tells you that it is
a universal driver, if my memory is correct.  If it works, you are home
free.  If it doesn't then y9u really haven't lost much but the download
time over the net and a few minutes time.

You do need to check carefully that the IRQ that is going to that card
is not really in conflict with something else.  The Hardware Icon in the
Setup folder doesn't tell you what IRQ that NIC has.  However, if your
boot run doesn't tell you, a tip passed on to me may help you.  You can
run the program OS2SNIFF in your IBMINST directory from an OS/2 window.
For cards that are PNP like the 100, when I do that, it tells me what
IRQ the NIC has grabbed...

are at http://www.kingston.com/networking/drivers/default.asp#fpci  
they are winzip files :-P  

http://www.kingston.com/networking/drivers/etherx/fpci/100_72a.exe
http://www.kingston.com/networking/drivers/etherx/fpci/100_72b.exe

Just change the stupid things from .exe to .zip and unzip each onto a 
floppy(or maybe onto a hardrive, never tried that though) and run 
QSTART which is a DOS program to setup the NIC and copy drivers.  Go 
into custom install and select the OS/2 Warp NDIS driver.  I have 
several different Kingston NICs (not a 100TX, but I do have a 110TX) 
and they all work the same to install and work well under Warp.

Subj: Re: Bypassing local logon

From: "Dave" <Nullmudshark-505@worldnet.att.net>

if you just want to logon with nearly no security, you can just logon with
name and password in your startup.cmd file.
your PW will NOT be encoded and visible to anyone with access to your
machine.  But for a home LAN its fine.
I use this for the most part and map my drives via the startup.cmd too.

Subj: Bad connection to RoadRunner

From: "Chuck" <kp4djt@gte.net>

Folks:
I am subscribed to RoadRunner, of late I have noticed a high amount of
connectivity
problems.
Things will be going along just fine then the link is gone. If I look at the
DHCP monitor
it will either show a lease has been obtained or show the following messages
[Time Stamp] Sending REQUEST message
[Time Stamp] number of options requested = 6

The cable modem is a Motorola unit, is there any way
to obtain signal level or other such data from this device?

Here is a sample of a ARP trace when I ping and there is
no reply

-------------------------- #:12 --------------------------

It almost appears that something goes to sleep on the cable end,
but knowing those knuckle heads when I call them and they find out
I am not running windows they will start trying to pawn it off on my OS...

So prior to calling them, (last thing on list) I will ask around here...

Subj: OS/2 Client to Samba ?

From: Stefan.Beck@voba-schoenbuch.de (Stefan Beck)

Hi,

I have tried to connect my OS/2 Warp 4 Client to a samba server.

I have Peer 4.06 and Requester 4.0 installed on the OS/2 machine.
TCPIP, Netbios and TCPIP over Netbeui (on Adapter  1) is installed.

Samba is running, but I can't see the samba with a net view.

Does anybody know what to do ?

Regards,

Stefan Beck
