----------
It is discussed in the MSK documentation. You will need to load
a Packet Driver and winpkt on the top for Kermit to access via Windows.
The underlying board driver can be a Packet Driver, real mode ODI, or
real mode NDIS (with the aid of shim dis_pkt9). However, and it is a vital
however, you may not run another TCP/IP stack at the same time over the same
board. Winsock is a TCP/IP stack. Win95 has much difficulty using a real
mode NDIS board driver.
An easy out is to install a second Ethernet board (cheap) and
use a second IP address for it. Run a Packet Driver and winpkt over it.
Here is another hint. It is not necessary to run Win95 in GUI
mode. You can run just DOS 7 and not start the GUI (edit msdos.sys text
file and add line bootgui=0 under the Options section) until you need
it.
What I do in a student lab here is run Novell's ODI real mode
material and before Win95 starts add ODIPKT + WINPKT on the top for MSK.
The current release of MSK is now v3.15.
