> Anyone running WinQvt/Net on a wd8003e and Pc-Nfs succesfully ?

Well, I got the thing running yesterday. Not without a lot of problems
and being forced to do things I don't like. Let me summarize:

1. I did not change my config.sys at all. The packet driver provided
with pc-nfs is the one I use to boot-up.
2. As you, I also use INT 5 on my card.
3. After boot-up but before you start windows type the following:

wd8003e 0x60 5 0x280 0xd000
pktint

4. Now run windows (Win/s or Win/3).
5. Use the notepad to edit QVT_TCP.RC and make sure "pc_ip","netmask","domain",
"packet_vector=60", and "packet_class=0" are in the first seccion. On
the second
seccion define you "default" set-up. Then, on the third seccion, where
you define
your hosts, I had to add:
"gateway=1"
"nameserver=1"
for every host entry.
6. Run WinQvt/nett and if you get the host list up on the screen you are
in
buisness. Now try to open a session to the first host. It may be you
have to
press RETURN to wake up the system. 

This works but only for the first host. I cannot make a connection to
any
of my other hosts unless I modify QVT_TCP.RC and "isolate" the gateway
and the
nameserver specifically to it. I don't know why, but at least I've got
the "thing"
working. 

If anybody out there is kind enough to explain why this work (when in
theory it
should'nt) please, please post a followup.
