Hi all-

I downloaded xwindemo from cica last week and am still at a loss as
to how to get it to make a meaingfull connection.  I am running
Trumpet Winsock 1.00 #18, which works great with other clients, such
as qvt, etc.  Can anyone tell me what arguments they pass to xwindemo
to get an XDMCP session going (on a Sun, for example)?  I would even
be glad to know how someone gets an rsh to work.  I can at least
tickle the remote machine with rsh or rexec, but I have never been
able to get a window open to it.  Please excuse my ignorance, and
thanks in advance for your help.

Subject: Where is WinTalk

I am looking for wintalk, which I assume is a sockets based talk progam. I 've
heard several people mention it, but not a location from which I can ftp it.
Also it doesn't seem to be at cica, sunsite, gatekeeper, etc.

Try diabling CSLIP in the SETUP dialog. It could be that the other end of
your serial connection is unable to deal with CSLIP. Alternatively check
that it is using CSLIP. I found that I got hangs in the past when trying to
use CSLIP when connected to a SLIP server that didn't support CSLIP.

Subject: Running packet driver software with Banyan Vines

Hi.  I'm having a problem getting packet driver software to run with
Banyan Vines.  We have the FTP software PC/TCP TCP/IP implementation,
with the ibanyan kernel (and only the ibanyan kernel) available, and
that works, and winsock apps work, but  I would like to try using
some packet driver apps.  So far, I've tried using a raw packet driver,
without loading any Banyan drivers, and that doesn't work.  I've tried
using the banpkt shim over the top of the Banyan drivers, and that
doesn't work.  I've tried using a packet driver with the Cabletron
Banyan driver, and while Banyan works, the packet driver software won't
As I type this, I have the same Cabletron/packet driver combination
running, only I added pktmux to see if that would help.  Again, no luck.
I'm sure I have the router, name server, net mask, etc. set up right,
because I'm using the same values for those as for the PC/TCP software,
which I know works.  It seems like the only way that the Vines servers
will route is if the  IP packets are tunneled through Vines packets.
The servers seem to reject straight IP packets.  BTW, I've been using PC
Gopher II and the Trumpet DOS news reader as test software.

If anyone has had better luck getting packet driver software to work
with Banyan Vines, please let me know.  I've run out of things to try,
except for NDIS drivers, which I'd rather not mess with, but if other
people have had to turn to NDIS drivers to get packet driver software to
work with Vines, then let me know, since I may have to try that anyway.

Please post responses or send me e-mail.  Thank you for your help.

Yes.  Not all nicknames need to appear (necessarily) on the New Message
To submenu; these can be used for just the most *frequent* recipients of
your email... e.g., your boss, your dissertation advisor, etc.  I keep
nicknames for many mailing lists that save a lot of time when I use them,
but I don't use them that often and don't want them cluttering up my
New Message To submenu.

Anyway, when you pull up the Nicknames dialog, you'll notice that all
nicknames that have a checkmark by them will appear on the New Message To
submenu, while those that *don't* have the checkmark will *not* appear
there.  To place or remove a checkmark, double-click on the nickname.

Subject: WinQVT/Net etc. problems

Hi...last night when I retired my computer, all of my windows clients were
working fine.  However, today I attempted to telnet after establishing a slip
connection and got the message "local IP address not specified."  I made *no*
changes since last night.  Any ideas?  Also, Trumpet hangs and the FTP client
is very, very slow.  I'd appreciate any feedback.  Thanks.

Subject: WinQvtNet FTP server problem


Hi!

I am running Winqvtnet v3.9 over trumpet winsock alpha #18.  I am having
trouble using the Winqvtnet FTP server.  The trouble is this:  I will log
in and get a file... everything will seem OK, but the file will always be
cut short.  Any ideas, suggestions, ideas for replacing Winqvtnet???
