Hello, People!
I have a problem (no!) in that we are running a group of Netware servers,
and are slowly switching most of our folk onto Lan Workplace for the
tcpip.... Many of them are fairly kermit dependent, though, and whenever
they have the lanwp tcpip loaded, kermit fritzes out looking for a
bootpd.
I have the batch which kermit runs from set up to do a tcpip -u whenever
kermit is trying to start, so that its own stack can play, which
sometimes works, but if a user has done much since the lanwp stack was
loaded, say, entered and exited windows, then it can't restore the int
handler and the tcpip sticks and kermit bails, so an insufficient fix
ultimately.
So I downloaded the most recent Kermit, which is built to deal with the
lanwp tcpip, and does so nicely, but the problem is that I have both
users with and without lanwp, and can't determine how (or whether) I can
configure kermit to operate with either. I need to make all of this as
automated as possible, as my users tend to balk at things as complex as
"cd ..".
Any hints, or anyone who has had to get things set up for a fairly motley
environment?
Thanks in advance,
Josefa Kirkland
