Greetings again.  Thanks to those of you who responded to my query
concerning implementing ka9q as an ethernet to tokenring router.  I
think that I have obtained all the information that I need for that
function.  Now for the new twist....


Is the IBMTOKEN.COM packet driver broken?  It never finishes opening
the interface.  JUst hangs.  I have version 1.2 of the IBM Net Support
programs and versions 7 and 8 of the packet driver.  Neither will actually
work with this TRUE BLUE token ring card....  IBM diagnostics says that
both the card and the ring is ok.  Any pointers?  One person suggested
that they use the ipx version ov the program.  What type of performance
loss can be anticipated using this package?  Desparately seeking any
advice that will come my way and MANY thanks in advance.
