We're using Chameleon TCP/IP 4.0 for Windows for PPP dial-in
and TN5250.  The dial-in is much more stable compared to version
3.11 and we're still evaluating the TN5250.

Subject: Wintalk, WinQVT Conflicts



Has anyone experience system hang ups as well as system crashes when
using WinTalk and WinQvt/Net 3.96?...The GPF message comes up more
often when I load WinTalk before WinQVT/Net but still occur the other
way around.

ANother problem I have experienced when using WinTalk is when I get
the message "your party is not logged on"....in this case the system just
hangs up and the other way to quit WinTalk is through ctrl-alt-del.  Sometimes
that doesn't even work.  Additional problems arise when using the Ntalk
choice.  Ocassionally two screens appear and the system hangs up.

Are these common problems or do I have something set up wrong?

Thanks.

Subject: WinTalk and Unix

Has anyone been able to get WinTalk V1.0a to work?  I can not establish a
connection between a machine running Ultrix4.2a and my workstation which has
a Novel ether.card and the appropriate winsock.dll.  Everythink works
perfect with the current setup except wintalk.  If I try to establish a
talk session using wintalk from my workstation it does not ring the person on
the unix side, but if the unix side tries to talk to the workstation my
machine catches the call.  After accepting the call, nothing happens both
machine just sit there.

I have tried both talk versions included with wintalk. Anyone have any
suggestions?  Help..
Thanks ahead of time,

WINARCH can be invoked with the command line parameter -archie=archie.host
For example: "winarch -archie=archie.ans.net" (for people in the Eastern US).
It defaults to ARCHIE.AU (currently plaza.aarnet.au).  The TARGET refers to
the actual TARGET program/file that you are searching for, and SUFFIX refers
to the domain suffix that you want the search restricted to.  Eg. "AU" or
"EDU" or something more specific like "UTAS.EDU.AU"

Later,

I get the same message and have to reboot windows after running winchat or
wintalk.  I belive this is a error caused by windows applications and thier
interface with the winsock.

I saw the solution posted a while ago and it works for me.

If you go to file > properties for the winarch icon and add on the command
line  winarch.exe -archie=<your.archie.server>

when you click on the program icon it automatically connects to the archie
server.  Works great!

>What is the correct format of the TimeZone?

You have to put the following in your autoexec.bat:

set TZ=CST6CDT

Where CST is your main time zone (in my case central standard time)
6 is your hours before GMT
CDT is your daylight savings time code (in my case central daylight time)

For some reason, they have used the tzset c function.

Good luck.

I have the V4.0 release.  I am new to Chameleon, but it seems like a fairly
good package.  The SLIP seems somewhat faster than Trumpet Winsock.  The news
reader is BUGGY.  I have discussed this with them, and I e-mailed a note of
all the bugs I found to the person who developed the code.  I'll keep you
posted.  BTW, it is fully Winsock compliant, and all your favorite WInsock
compliant programs will work fine (including Trumpet newsreader, Mosaic, and
Cello).

Or one can simply set the DOS environment variable TZ=EST5EDT. This will let
all programs that rely on this variable work right.

EST is -5 hours from UTC (aka GMT).
EDT is -4 hours.

Here is what my Unix archie says about the servers:

Known archie servers:
        archie.ans.net (USA [NY])
        archie.rutgers.edu (USA [NJ])
        archie.sura.net (USA [MD])
        archie.unl.edu (USA [NE])
        archie.mcgill.ca (Canada)
        archie.funet.fi (Finland/Mainland Europe)
        archie.au (Australia)
        archie.doc.ic.ac.uk (Great Britain/Ireland)
        archie.wide.ad.jp (Japan)
        archie.ncu.edu.tw (Taiwan)
 * archie.sura.net is the default Archie server.
 * For the most up-to-date list, write to an Archie server and give it
   the command `servers'.

Hope this helps.
