Okay, I am about to lose my mind... I am not very experienced with
TCP/IP (as you are about to determine) and I seem to be having problems
doing the simplest things...
My goal is to be able to telnet from my DOS PC to my Linux system via
an ethernet LAN using 3COM 509 NICs. I configured TCP/IP on Linux and it
*seems* to be working correct... (how can I be sure?) I don't get any
errors at boot... The IP addresses I used should be fine, because it is
only the two systems on the net... I am not 100% sure about the hosts
files and such... but I went through them all and they *seem* correct...
But when I try to telnet from MS-Kermit on my DOS PC, I get the messages
about Host must be down, and unable to resolve host name... Maybe
MS-Kermit isn't configured correctly...
I am using ODI drivers, is this the best method? I am not using any
other protocol, just IP, ARP and RARP... to start the protocols I have a
batch file:
lsl.com
3C5X9.com
ipxodi.com
My net.cfg file is:
protocol KERMIT
bind 3C5X9
Link Support
Buffers 6 1600
Link Driver 3C5X9
INT 10
PORT 300
FRAME Ethernet_II
Protocol IP 0800 Ethernet_II
Protocol ARP 0806 Ethernet_II
Protocol RARP 8035 Ethernet_II
I do not IPX/SPX, just the above protocols... but when ipxodi is
executed, it says that protocol 8137 (ipx/spx) is bound to the NIC...
shouldn't that be IP (0800) instead? What am I doing wrong? Am i going
about this the wrong way? Should I use some other method instead of ODI?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...
