Subject: Memory Problems
To: [e-mail]

I configured at Rovira i Virgili University in Spain (JN01ND) a gateway Packet
Radio <-> Internet. The configuration is:

            PC 386/SX with 640 Kb RAM
            HD 100 Mb
            One Ethernet card
            One "micro-mopdem Baycom" 1.200 bauds.

The resident programs are :
            Driver to control the Ethernet card "ne1000"
            Driver to control the "micro-modem"(ax25 driver)

The problem is that: There memory left is: 75 Kb and de system not soports
much sessions and reboots often.

I tried to run WNOS4A8 with Windows program to get virtual memory on HD but it
isn't posible. Windows crash.

I would like to know how can i get more memory using the virtual memory on disk.

Thanks a lot.

You might want to consider writing an SCC driver as a "Frame Interface"
driver.  What's Frame Interface, you ask?  A driver spec for OS/2 being
worked on by several of us on the OS2IP mailing list.  The Frame IF is a
Ring-3 interface - i.e applications can send/receive packets directly,
something you can't do with NDIS drivers.  NDIS and ODI drivers both have
only an inter-device-driver interface - only another device driver can
talk to them.  The Frame IF was conceived primarily to be that "other
device driver" to allow applications (such as PMNos) to talk to NDIS and
ODI drivers.  It's a generic interface, though, and actually fairly
similar to the FTP Packet Driver spec.  It should be straightforward to
adapt an existing DOS drivers (pktdvr or internal NOS) to Frame IF.

Interested parties should join the OS2IP mailing list (send mail to
[e-mail], "subscribe OS2IP" in the body).  The spec
itself is not quite finished, but should be done in a week or so (an
early, incomplete draft is available on its.flint.umich.edu).  An
NDIS<->FrameIF driver is in progress as well.

Subject: SLIP connection??
To: [e-mail]

  Hi!!. I am wondering if someone has been successful installing a
  SLIP connection with the internal drivers. I can do it with the Clarkson
  packet drivers or a PPP connection by example, but never with the internal
  slip drivers :(. Do someone successful with it can help me with it
  please.. Thanks!!

I never saw any response to this the first time, but still very interested,
so sending it to this group, too.  Thanks for any help.
