Hello all,

I am trying to set up winsock to be able to do remote printing over
the internet.  I have been having trouble configuring winsock to work
in addition to the PC/TCP network software that I currently use.  Are
these incompatible? or has someone figured this out?

If we can't use winsock with FTP, Inc.'s PC/TCP, can we configure it
to be used with NCSA telnet and ftp software.  How do we do this?

Thanks,
Todd

   Sure it does. First of all, Mosaic is reasonably usable at 14.4 - I do it, and
   even have inline graphics turned on. The MSU weather server works great, as
   does the interactive map server. (Now, if you try to load one of those bit
   .avi files from the weather server, you are going to wait a while, but the
   "postage stamp" maps that are inlined are suprisingly reasonable. What DOESN'T
   work too well is when people use fairly large pictures of Al Gore inline... :)
   )

   I was unable to use Mosaic with the Trumpet Winsock. Well, it worked, kinda,
   but was subject to fits and jerks, and occasional lock-ups of Windows, random
   phone hang-ups, etc. It was NOT a pretty sight!

   I switched to Distinct TCP/IP and all of my Mosaic problems went away. Most
   inlines take just a few seconds to transfer at 14,400, and there are no pauses
   in the reception.

Mosaic worked fine with Trumpet Winsock for me.  No delays, hangups, etc.
But when I want to hear a sound file from mtv.com, it's time to forget
the modem link and go find a PC with Ethernet.

Are there any programs available that will allow me to setup a domain
name server on a 286 running DOS?  SMTP would also be nice for mail.

Thanks!

The files are temporarily stored at ftp.netcom.com in /pub/craigh
until they show up at a more permanent (and accessable!) site.

I thought I posted an all clear and thanks concerning my
installation travails. Sorry.

Shah:
    At the stage of the journey to which you refer ip resolve problem was
cleared up when I used.....

          name@[xxx.x.x.x] in the pop account field
          panix.com in the smtp field

Your mileage may vary.  I missed the square brackets the first time
and tried to us an ip address in the latter field.

However, I also had severe problems with the basic slip connection and quirky
software versions. A fresh download of the archive and a few ftp trips
and the installation worked out of the box.

And again, the non-gender-specific higher mammal technical support
staff @qualcomm seems to be a great resource. They were unstumped later :)
