Okay... I give up... I am beat... (not really, or I wouldn't be posting,
just real close <g>)... Just a recap, in case of some new readers: I am
trying to connect my DOS PC to a linux box via TCP/IP with MS-Kermit...
My network card is a 3COM 509 UTP... I am loading just the following
network drivers in my autoexec.bat: (i commented out my other network
stuff to keep it simple, when I get this working I will try them both
simultaneously)
C:\MSKERMIT\3C5X9PD 0x61 0x10 0x300
pause
C:\MSKERMIT\WINPKT 0x61
pause
The drivers load without any errors...
My mscustom.ini file has the following entries for tcp/ip: (the only
systems I am interested in are my pc and the linux box. I am not
concerned at this time with connecting to the internet or other pc on our
LAN)
SET TCP/IP ADDRESS 199.0.9.219 ; My PC's numeric IP address
SET TCP/IP SUBNETMASK 255.255.255.0 ; My physical network's subnet mask
; SET TCP/IP DOMAIN my_pc ; My PC's fully qualified domain name
; SET TCP/IP GATEWAY 199.0.9.218 ; My network gateway's IP address
; SET TCP/IP PRIMARY-NAMESERVER 123.123.123.2 ; Primary nameserver's
address
; SET TCP/IP SECONDARY-NAMESERVER 123.123.123.3 ; fallback nameserver
address
SET TCP/IP BROADCAST 199.0.9.255 ; My network's broadcast address
SET TCP/IP PACKET-DRIVER \x61
SET PORT TCP/IP 199.0.9.218 ; The IP address of the Linux Box
CONNECT
When I start Kermit, i get the following errors:
Resolving address of host 199.0.9.218
Unable to ARP resolve 199.0.9.218
Unable to connect to host
The host may be down or a gateway may be needed
With the above drivers loaded in my autoexec.bat, i can connect to the
Linux box via Trumpet Winsock in Windows and Telnet into the host, so why
can't I in DOS with MS-Kermit? I also tried the lsl/3c5x9/ipxodi
approach, with this net.cfg file:
Protocol KERMIT
bind 3C5X9
Link Support
Buffers 6 1600
Link Driver 3C5X9
INT 10
PORT 300
FRAME Ethernet_II
Protocol IPX 8137 Ethernet_II
Protocol IP 0800 Ethernet_II
Protocol ARP 0806 Ethernet_II
Protocol RARP 8035 Ethernet_II
And I received the same messages in Kermit as annotated above. Please,
any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...
Dazed and Confused,
Corey...
