I am using PS/2 70's with Ungermann Bass NICPS2 boards.  To run
the IBM tcpip software I must load a netdev.sys driver in config.sys.

How do I tell windows about this?  Most of the driver oriented software
I have read about is loaded through a com or exe file.  What about sys files?

The problem is, when I bring up a dos shell, ftp, telnet etc. work fine.
If  I close the shell, and bring up a new shell, the ftp, telnet exe files
fail on talking to the board. !  Windows is not corrupted though.  The
error seems to be from the ftp and telnet software (i.e. it is not a
windows failure error).

I may have to exclude memory? or something?  Any ideas?
