Keywords: ndis, lan-manager, pc-tcp, tcp/ip Message-ID: <1991Feb4.120459.15972@ulrik.uio.no> Date: 4 Feb 91 12:04:59 GMT Sender: news@ulrik.uio.no (USENET News System) Organization: University of Bergen, Norway. Lines: 30 My understanding of this setup leaves much to be done, hope this isn't too stupid... Have installed: HP lan-manager/x on an sco unix 3.2.2 box. The example ms-dos client is using tcp/ip to talk to the server, works nice. Now I need to have a few programs to talk to a unix box over ftp's pc/tcp tcp/ip implementation. Using the "dispktpm.dos" (ndis to packet converter) and the generical kernel (ethdrv.exe) I can get pc/tcp to work *OR* lan-manager but not both it seems. Depending on what get loaded first it seems like either l-m or pc/tcp will die from packet starvation. (?) Can two tcp/ip stacks share an NDIS interface or am I trying to do something impossible? I feel like taking a bath in aspirin, any help would be much appreciated. Email responses prefered. PS: If it should turn out that this is indeed possible, then a copy of "protocol.ini" and "lanman.ini" (and possibly config/autoexec) would be helpful.
