Set up the packet driver. The exact setup procedure depends on what Ethernet board you have. For the 3C501 driver, the syntax is: 3C501 packet_int_no [IRQ [I/O addr]] Defaults for IRQ and I/O address are 3 and 0x300 respectively, so if you use these addresses, you only need to specify the packet interrupt no, i.e. 0x7E, so in that case the command is 3C501 0x7E Please DO notice that you can't use interrupt no. 0x80! 2. Load the WinQVT/Net Packet Driver Protected Mode Interface by running PKTINT.COM 3. Edit your QVT_TCP.RC file. Necessary fields to edit: pc_ip = [your IP address, i.e. 192.33.237.2] packet_vector = [packet driver interrupt no, *MUST* be what you specified when you loaded the packed driver. In this example, it's 7E] packet_class = [0 for Ethernet, 6 for SLIP] Scroll down the file until you get to the User Configuration Section name = [Configuration name, i.e. ocelot.wang.COM] host = [Name of host to connect to, i.e. ocelot.wang.COM] host_ip = [IP address of host, i.e. 192.33.237.1] 4. Run WINQVT.EXE (WIN WINQVT.EXE) I hope this helps! -- Disclaimer: Wang doesn't care about my opinions, so why should you?
