No, you must have a POP3 server on the host to use PC-Eudora - or many other
POP clients for that matter.

Subject: HELP! Winsock/modem/GW2k P5 PCI
From: [e-mail] (Michael Garoutte) Date: Sat, 29 Jan 1994

HELP Summary: Can you help me get winsock to work?

OK, here I go again.  First of all, I apologize for the cross-post, but I
have asked before with no replies, and I thought the right person might ...
Well, you get the idea.  Anyway...

My system: Gateway 2000 P5-60/PCI system received December 1993 (not the
             latest motherboard, I understand. This one has had some
             problems with the serial ports, etc.)
           ZOOM 14.4k v.32bis internal modem (on COM1, internal COM1
             disabled from CMOS setup.)
           Other cards: PCI ATI video, Mitsumi FX001 CD-ROM

My situation:
  I have only minor problems using P. Tattam's SLIPPER or CSLIPPER to
connect to my terminal server.  I can use WINPKT or PKTMUX with no problem
under Windows (3.1, not 3.11).  DOS applications for packet driver work fine
in a DOS box under Windows (I'm posting this from one).  But I absolutely
cannot get Winsock to work.  I have tried dialing under DOS, Windows, and
even using the dialing feature and the internal SLIP driver of Tattam's
Winsock/TCPman combo.  No luck. Here's what happens:  TCPman sends a
request (such as "gethostbyname kuhub" or something) but it never seems to
get a reply.  If I look at the terminal window in my communications program,
I can sometimes see that the replies are coming.  That is, I can sometimes
see some garbage, along with some readable messages that are obiously
intended for TCPman, but which never arrive.  Well, that's my explanation
anyway.

Is there anyone out there with a similar setup that has gottem Winsock to
work?  If so, could you please let me know what your setup/
configuration files, etc. are? (E-mail preferred because I can't set the
followup group with this newsreader; but posts are OK)

Could this be related to the problems with Intel's PCI motherboard?
I just don't understand why all my other communications are fine, but
Winsock won't work.

If you can help me, I will owe you one!

Thanks for reading this far.
Michael.

Subject: Serial Port Emulator?

    I have seen that TCP COnnect II for windows has 2 programs that sound
interesting:
1)  A program that allows your serial port in windows to become your telnet
session. Therefore you can use your favorite terminal program to communicate
over Telnet (Like Procomm Plus for windows).

2) A program that allows one to telnet in and connect to your serial port.
SOmething like you could run a program that watches for a call on a comm port
and when someone Telnet's to your address, they get that port?

Has anyone seen any other Winsock COmpatible programs simular to these?

Hah! THAT explains it! This broke when I switched from Trumpet Winsock to
Distinct TCP/IP...

You need to find the nearest 'DNS Server', and fill in the numeric address of
that server in the Winsock setup. After that, Winsock will use that server to
look-up addresses. Ask your service provider.

Try setting the TimeZone under Miscellaneous in the eudora.ini file.  I just
found that without it, sending mail from eudora that will be read by NetManage
Chameleon will cause Chameleon to crash, with the painful inability to read all
the saved mail (except by moving all the files and a lot of work).

Subject: seeking sample Out-of-Band(Urgent) apps code

I am working on guts of a winsock.  I need to see how an application,
calling the Winsock routines, makes use of the Out of Band data and the
SIOCATMARK indication.  I haven't quite got that part figured out.

Please forward c code fragments to me by e-mail.  Confidentiality assured
unless you state otherwise.

 The Winsock Application FAQ is temporarily unavailable.  We converted
from Dell Unix to BSDi, which broke "filter" (the infoserver).

I expect to have the infoserver running again within the week.

Subject: NNTP under windows...where?

Hiya...

    This is going to sound like a stupid question, but where might I be
able to track down the winsock variety of Trumpet, or any NNTP client for
windows?  Thanks in advance...(btw, aside from NCSA, what are some good sites
for winsock material?)

Subject: trumpet , mosaic , firewall?

Anyone having a simalr problem?

I have a ip address for my home pc, and can get a slip connection
going pretty easy..  Eudora and Xwin seem to work fine, but with
mosaic I can only access the home page here at Wavefront.
I try to connect to any other http server and the connection times out.
Is this a firewall i'am hitting?

One other thing,, what is a good setting for mtu, mss, and rwin?
I have a 14.4 (57600) connection with mtu set at 255, mss at 209 and
rwin at 700..   Could mtu be set higher?

Thanks for any, and all help.
