Subject: WD Ethercard Problem With Map Root
Date: July 31, 1990
Shell Version: v3.01

GENERAL
INFORMATION: We have been working with a customer who is having problems
running the new 3.01 DOS client shells on workstations using
the Western Digital Ethercard and drivers. We had him try a
couple of versions of the NIC drivers. The 2.11.3 version
will loose connection when accessing a drive assigned to a
false root. The latest 3.05 version had even more problems
and would not even allow false roots at all. We have
recommended to our customer to contact Western Digital about
a fix in their next driver version. In the meantime, he is
going to an NE1000.
COMMENTS: In speaking with other techs on this subject, we have heard
problems have also been reported with Gateway Ethernet and
the 3C501, as well as the Thomas Conrad Arcnet cards.
Thomas Conrad has a fix for their cards.
