Hello folks,
I would like to share with you some problems I faced the last few days, while
I was trying to setup a NOS front-end PC at home.
I spend the last few days, setting up a dedicated NOS front-end to collect my
mail. The front-end was to stay on, all day long, so I wanted to use dedicated
equipment, in order to avoid problems at my normal rig, PC, power supply and
TNC.
I got a 386SX with 1 MB RAM, I already had a 10A power supply and an IC-229
VHF rig. All I needed was a TNC, so I opted for Baycom.
I installed the small modem and made the connecting cables. However, my modulat
ion was uncomprehensible, and I could not demodulate other stations.
After making sure that everything was connected correctly etc, the cullprit
was found to be a TSR (terminate-and-stay-resident) clock program, that I was
using, to show the date and time, on the top right corner of the screen. It
looks as if this program, is creating a havoc since it is stealing interupts
from the system (since it is monitoring the DOS clock, thru interupts) and
screwed up the Baycom transmitting and receiving capabilities.
As soon as I removed the clock from memory, Baycom works fine!
Another problem I faced was that, while I could do ftp at other stations, when
I issued the 'dir' command, I was getting the message 'cannot read directory'
(or something similar). Strangely, althought I could not see the directory
contents, I could ftp a file I knew it was there. Well, it turned out that
althought my environment was set up for 'SET TMP=C:\TEMP' and 'SET
TEMP=C:\TEMP', a \temp directory did not exist. As soon as it was created,
everything returned to normal.
My 2 cents contribution.
