Unless that machine needs to route packets to other machines which it isn't directly connected to, there should be absolutely no routing information at all in the TCP/IP setup. All the routing that it should ever have will be done by the program that sets up the Internet connection. The other machines on the network, which you want to access the Internet through the dial-up machine, should have a default route pointing to the LAN address of your dial-up machine (*not* the gateway of your ISP).

Your problems appears to be something to do with Windows 95 which is not OS/2. If I understand your description correctly you seem to have identified the problem. The Linksys network card and the supplied Windows drivers do not perform. If the same hardware performs up to expectations with Linux, then the problem is the quality of the Windows drivers or some other deficiency in the Windows operating environment. 1) Try a different brand network card. 2 :-) Remove Windows and only use Linux 3 :-) Remove Windows and use IBM OS/2 Warp 4 You also have to remember that the effective speed of your internet link is the slowest link between your machine and the site you are trying to access. The remote site may have a slow internet connection, or it may have a great deal of traffic at times which will slow down your access speed. Try accessing the same site at different times and see if that makes a difference in the speed that you can download the page. If you get consistantly "slow" results and using Linux gives you consistantly "faster" results try step 1 and see if your Windows access speed increases. Some web sites deliver different pages based on the identification of the operating environment of the web browsing software. When you access the page with Windows you may be receiving a different page than the one you get when you use Linux. The page received by Windows may include hidden commands that are transferring vast amounts of data from your machine to the web site (known security "bug" in IE) that will have an impact on the net download speed. (the preceding was a contribution to "Web Paranoia" :-) If step 1 does not work go to step 2. Step 3 is pure advocacy based on the newsgroup you posted this message to. :-) Lorne Sunley --- WtrGate+ v0.93.p7 sn 165 * Origin: Usenet: MBnet Networking Inc.

This is the package that installs the TCP/IP stack (not the applications) and the NETBIOS/NETBEUI/TCPBUEI protocols used for file and print sharing. If you have plain Warp 3 (not connect0 you are using version 2.x of the TCP/IP stack (installed for dial-up internet connections).

There are actually two "domain" names involved one is for the TCP/IP internet access which is your ISP's domain name. The other "WARPNET" is for the file sharing NETBIOS domain. The two "domains" are totally separate. > Should the computer name be differerent from the > local machine name assigned by my ISP ? > I don't think it makes any difference if you are using static IP assignments.

This should be set to your ISP's "gateway" or "router" address. The "net" route is used to pass along packets addressed to the sub-net named in the route statement The "net " route for your 192.168.1 sub-net should be 192.168.1.1 This is usually set up automatically. Otherwise your TCPIP setup notebook should contain one. This will route the 192.168.1.X packets to the correct NIC. > > > The other half is NT4 (and I suspect is the problem)... > > NT4 Client (SP5) peer: > ---------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------- > Configured as "NAME-2" of "WARPNET", with: > 1 x NICs (RTL8139) with; > > ** - RTL8139, 100BaseT from hub. > NetBEUI Protocol > TCP/IP Protocol > > Computer Name is "NAME-2" > Workgroup is "WARPNET" > Static IP is 192.168.1.2 > Subnet is 255.255.255.0 > Default Gateway is 192.168.1.1 > *all* of the DNS info is as assigned by > my ISP. > IP forwarding is on. > > Questions: > ---------- > Should the workgroup be "WARPNET" ?

On the NT machine what protocols do you have "installed", "turned on" or whatever they call it in the "Network" icon? You need TCP/IP which you must have or you could not set up the parameters. For "file and print sharing" you do not need the NETBIOS over TCP/IP you could just use NETBEUI which is faster on a small LAN and is less likely to lead to inadvertant sharing of stuff that may be visible to the entire internet. Questions to you.... Can you PING the NT machines IP address from the gateway machine? Can you PING the gateway machine from the NT machine? Do you have some sort of NAT gateway software installed like Injoys Gateway http://www.fx.dk ? You will need this to translate the 192.168.X.X addresses to allow the other machines to access the internet. WARNING - only install it after you have the base network working between the local machines. The 192.168.X.X addresses will not be passed along as they are "private" network IP addresses and the internet routers will drop them.

That is my PmPatrol monitor line shows that RAM is dropping fast and going to zero from about 50 megabytes. This is a sudden change. Has there been a memory leak problem documented before?

As Lorne kindly pointed out MPTS is MultiProtocol Transport Services. http://www.warpupdates.de/english/inet_browser.html states that Fixpack WR08210 is needed for MPTS. You can check out your version of MPTS by issuing the command SYSLEVEL or by looking at the file \MPTN\SYSLEVEL.MPT If you don't have MPTS installed at all, that may be the cause of your problem.

Well, everything is up and running, geez - I cant belive it's finished - no can I understand why it was so difficult. First it was the NetBIOS/BEUI stuffs. NT could see Warp's shares, but Warp couldn't see NT's. Flipped a bit in NT's registry (lmannounce). Then found that MPTN screws up IBMLAN.INI, forgetting my second adapter configs "net1=NETBEUI$,0,LM10,100,150,14", which has to be manually entered in, as did both the "wrknets = NET1,NET2" and "srvnets = NET1,NET2". Reinstalled the InJoyFirewall/Gateway - forgetting that I'd been playing with the filters - so even though everything was working fine I couldn't get ping a DNS resolveable IP...

These newsgroups kill me - when I think of the money we/I spend on tech-support (who aren't in on Sunday), which just buys us their "ball's-back-in-your-court" attitude, as they ineptly provide inaccurate, information with a non-cholant approach to solving a problem... then I poke around Deja, or just drop a post to comp.os...

From: domi@kenavo.NOSPAM.fi (Dominique Pivard) The IP address is defined via IFCONFIG (usually in \mptn\bin\setup.cmd). No need to use the tcp/ip config utility: just have two files, eg. SETUP1.CMD and SETUP2.CMD, with the appropriate IFCONFIG parameters for each address. The name servers (defined in \mptn\etc\resolv2) are perhaps a bit trickier, since I think (not sure about that) resolv2 is read at boot time. I have a similar situation (using a laptop on my home LAN and at work) and I'm using ALTF1.CMD to switch from one set of configuration files to the other at boot time (all I have to do is press Alt-F1 and choose between the sets).

But when I ping to the other machine it says 'No response > to ping' > > What am I doing wrong? > You have these machines on two different subnets and your default "route" setup is incorrect. When two machines are on different subnets the machine pointed to by the "default" route is supposed to be able to determine where to route the packet to find the IP address requested in the packet. In your case machine one cannot see machine 2 directly because they are on two different subnets. Machine 1 is on subnet 198.1.203 and machine 2 is on subnet 139.126.1 When you attempt to ping machine 2 from machine 1 the packet is referred to the "default" router to find machine 2. Your "default" route for machine 1 is 198.1.203.11 (which is machine 1). According to the routing info supplied machine 1 has no "route" to the subnet machine 2 is on (139.126.1). The same problem occurs for machine 2. There are three ways to correct this. 1) set up a "route" on each machine that points to the other one. for Machine 1 "route add net 139.126.1 139.126.1.7 1" for Machine 2 "route add net 198.1.203 198.1.203.11 1" 2) Put them on the same subnet. Machine 1 IP address 198.1.203.11 netmask 255.255.255.0 route 198.1.203 198.1.203.11 default - doesn't matter for connection between the machines but it should be a machine that is "really" a router for the rest of the entire world wide IP network. This is usually provided by your ISP. Machine 2 IP address 198.1.203.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 route 198.1.203 198.1.203.12 default - doesn't matter for connection between the machines but it should be a machine that is "really" a router for the rest of the entire world wide IP network. This is usually provided by your ISP. 3) set up a third machine that "knows" the correct routing information and assign it as the "default" router for both machines. "Router" machines usually have a "routing table" that points to the IP addresses of machines or subnets the "router" has explicit knowlege of, made up of "route" commands that point to particular machines or other "routers" for other subnets. They also have a "default route" that points to some other machine that is responsible for routing packets for IP address the "router" has no direct knowlege of.

You don't need to use the TCP/IP settings notebook at all - all of the changes you make there are simply put into the batch file \mptn\bin\setup.cmd, which you can keep two copies of - one for one IP address, one for the other. Then you execute the necessary one for whatever connection is current.

The addresses you picked are _not_ reserved for private use, the ones i gave are. In addition the your addresses are not on the same IP subnet, that's the reason for your setup failing. If for some reason you have to use the other addresses you have to set up routes in that way: On M1: route add host 139.126.1.7 198.1.203.11 On M2: route add host 198.1.203.11 139.126.1.7 btw: There is nothing specific to TokenRing . > > Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ > Before you buy.

OS/2's ftpd - not nearly configurable enough 2. Hethmon Bro's ftp - takes forever to add directory access (i have thousand of dirs i need access to!) 3. iMatix Xitami web/ftp server - buggy and kinda hard to add user profiles 4. InetPowerServer - even buggier, but not too hard to setup and manage 5. FtpServer .76 - _fairly_ stable, easy to setup and add accounts #5 is what I use right now, but it still crashes at least once a day, and #5 is by FAR the SLOWEST of the ftps I have tried (IPS and Xitami could handle 40+ users without slowing the system much, ftpserver slows the system ALOT with that many users) Any suggestions?

This is one area where we do not have much choice. As you said #5 is pretty much the only choice and it behaves more like a *nix ftp server with virtual roor dir/etc. With all the other daemons users will have problems connecting (CuteFTP will not work with any of them except for #5).

You can create additional IP addresses for an adapter, by using the word alias on the line defining the second address. However, since the computer is being moved to a different location, you'll probably also want to change the router and netmask. To do this, just create a second copy of \mptn\bin\setup.cmd, with the new info and another name. Then run this file when at the 2nd location. If you want to get fancy, you could also make this a menu choice at the OS/2 boot option screen. -- E-mail jknott@ca.ibm.com _________________________________________________________________________ The above opinions are my own and not those of ISM Corp., a subsidiary of IBM Canada Ltd. --- WtrGate+ v0.93.p7 sn 165 * Origin: Usenet: Global Network Services - Remote Access Mail & Ne (1:109/42) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ From: phillipd@antares.cloudnet.com 11-Nov-99 11:33:19 To: All 11-Nov-99 10:44:24 Subj: Re: TCP/IP with NE2000 with Warp 3 From: Phillip Davenport gioTex wrote: > I have resumed an old warp 3 CD bought in 1995, and I'd like to use it > as telnet, ftp and www client into a little intranet but ... there is > not any support for NE2000 boards nor for the TCP/IP protocol. > can someone tell me in few word how can I can get a Warp 3 system > working into a little Ethernet lan using NE2000 clone ISA/PCI card ?

FTPServer would be better. penguin ftp daemon was very flaky. Easily crashes especially if you're not using an ftp program (eg.

I'm afraid I don't really know... we're getting a bit beyond my expertise here. I was not aware of any limitation in OS/2 LAN Requester about subnets. It could also have something to do with the domain you're connecting to. Do the machines you want not have NETBEUI computer names? AFAIK, you shouldn't have to use IP names to connect to them. i.e., instead of "NET USE S: \\10.9.8.7\resource1" I'd expect "NET USE S: \\SERVER1\resource1", and SERVER1 should be a unique name on the LAN domain. This assumes you know the name of the server you need, of course. The network resources folder (forget exactly what it's called in Connect) should display icons for every visible machine on the LAN domain, and you wouldn't need to type in a name at all. Can you not see the machines you want? (For that matter, what does "NET VIEW" tell you? If you can't see them there either, you may be using the wrong protocol.) -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Alex Taylor BA - CIS - University of Guelph alex@eddie.cis.uoguelph.ca http://eddie.cis.uoguelph.ca/~alex ----------------------------------------------------------------- --- WtrGate+ v0.93.p7 sn 165 * Origin: Usenet: @Home Network Canada (1:109/42) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ From: Petrie023@aol.com 11-Nov-99 22:49:02 To: All 11-Nov-99 19:59:17 Subj: 56K modem driver update From: Robin M.

For machines on the same LAN domain this does indeed work. The reason I didn' know that earlier is that the LAN domain I (must) dial into isn't the one containing the resources I need. Thus, I need NET USE W: \\machine.somewhere.aroundhere.atwork\share and don't seem to be able to do it. By the way, I wanted to use names, not numeric IP addresses, and only tried using a numeric IP address when the normal kind of command described above didn't work. If all will please forgive the reference, I can do exactly what I'm after here on Windows NT and even cite a different user ID and password for the distant domain, if appropriate. I'd like to think that OS/2 hasn't been left behind in this area. That's why I wonder if some fix level might add the capability. >Can you not see the machines you want?

This lets the net view command display the other domain's machines. The OTHDOMAINS parameter is listed in the [requester] section at the beginning of the file. AFAIK each domain in the list has to separated by a comma ie: othdomains=domone, domtwo This presumes that your RFCNAMES.LST has the IP addresses of the servers in that domain, or you have some other method that provides routing to the other sub-net for access to the servers through TCPBEUI. I think that the User ID and password on the second domain has to be the same as the one you log into, unless you use the NSC (Network Services Co-ordinator) (I think that is what the multiple ID password control program is called). --- WtrGate+ v0.93.p7 sn 165 * Origin: Usenet: MBnet Networking Inc.
