Subj: How 2 Run DV on a Server Section: Quarterdeck

Arthur -
I'm changing the thread subject for reasons that will become obvious when
you read the several messages that make up this reply.
>> I would be delighted to distribute a text of file of your findings
>> throughout Fidonet in the LANTASTI and LANNET echo and FDN.
Note that I'm running only the 2Mbs LANtastic network <with original LAN
cards>. I have no experience with either the LANtastic Z network or the
LANtastic AE2-C 10Mbs network. Until recently, I did not believe that DV
could be run on a server with the 10Mbs cards. However, Luis Eduardo
Castellanos [74240,506] reported a couple of weeks ago that he had figured
out how to do this so you might drop him a note and ask him for the
settings he uses.

**************************************************************************
The following settings run DV on the LANtastic servers attached to my
network and give 192k of UMB in two segments - 32k between B000-B7FF and
160k between D800-FFFF. I'm including the description for my 486 server
but it also works on my 386 server. On both of my servers, DV is just as
stable running on the server as it is running on a workstation.

DV
When reviewing the instructions I sent to you for running DV on a LANtastic
network server, I accidentally left out the section listing the settings that
must be entered in DV's network menu. Add the following after the section
with the Autoexec.Bat settings:
SETTINGS FOR DV'S NETWORK SECTION:
Multitask Which Network Interfaces?
IPX interrupt 7A (Y/N): Y
NETBIOS (Y/N): N
Memory Usage (in K)
Network Buffers: 8
