- INSTALLATION COMPLETED
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Well, all that needs to be done now is for you to
- reboot your computer to put the changes to your system
- into effect. From then on, just type: TCP <ENTER>
- to activate your TCP/IP station.
-
- You can of course add "TCP" as the last line in your
- AUTOEXEC.BAT file so NOS will start whenever the
- computer reboots.
-
- You must make sure that your TNC is in KISS mode and
- running at the right terminal speed (read the help
- invoked by pressing <ALT><F10> in the install screen
- beneath this window) and remember; if all else fails,
- read the tnc manual!
-
- You can speed NOS up a little by using programs like
- FASTOPEN (in your DOS directory), and, if you aren't
- using a hub, edit the domain.txt file so that your
- local region addresses are at the top of the file.
-
- If you find you are short of memory, consider an
- upgrade to a later version of MS-DOS or try using the
- programs like VIDRAM or ABOVE640 which both reclaim
- some of the video graphics memory for program use.
-
- Keeping an eye on the trace screen when running NOS is
- very good practice, but it does slow things down
- considerably. You'll notice a big difference if you
- turn the trace off when not in use.
-
- Don't forget to have a look in your TUTORIAL directory
- for useful tips. I'm sure your local stations will be
- more than pleased to lend a hand.
-
- Do have fun and remember; Share and Enjoy!
-
- Type: <CTRL><Q> to Quit now and don't forget to reboot
- your computer before attempting to run NOS!
