-
- If you include a device=monoumb.386 in your System.ini
- you can use the B000-B7FF Area for UMBs.

- This driver comes with MS-DOS 6

- Subject: ODI, NW 3.12, packet drivers ??
-
- We are using Novell 3.1x on our network.
- We are looking into the possibility of switching from using
- packet drivers to ODI. We used the Novell 3.12 DOS workstation
- install to effect the change. This put us to using the NW4
- drivers and the VLM setup. All went great once we deduced
- where everything was supposed to go with a shared network
- windows setup. All did not go well when we tried to use our
- tcp services - Hgopher, qvt, WinTrump, Mosaic. We put the
- ODIPKT (2.1) shim in the 'startnet.bat' after the mlid
- (3c503.com) with the vector of 126(7e), we ran the Trumpet
- Winsock (A18) which seemed to see the shim, and then ran
- Windows and the tcp apps. Tried the latter actually - no
- matter what changes in configuration I made, the gethostbyname
- was never able to be resolved; in other words, the app was
- never able to figure out what 'gopher.nih.gov' or the http
- was or find the news server on campus. They either never
- found or couldn't talk to the name servers. These are apps
- that run fine in a straight packet install and we would like
- to formally keep them, IF we can get them to function in the
- ODI/NW4/VLM scheme of things.
-
- Are the tcp apps, above, packet driver specific? My
- understanding was that the Winsock approach insulated us from
- the lower levels. Apps talk to winsock; winsock talks tcp.
- Is there a way with the NW4/VLM approach
- to specify the Link Support parameters like 'Buffers 6 1600'
- that Dan Lanciana mentions in the ODIPKT docs. Do you just
- stuff them into the net.cfg? Is there an
- 'ODI Winsock' that will work?
-
- BOTTOM LINE - can the tcp apps I mentioned work with ODI,
- NW4/VLM?????????

- Subject: NetManage's moving problems (Chameleon 4.0)
-
- Well, I just got off the phone with NetManage. They are painfully aware that
- their ftp server (ftp.netmanage.com) is slow and supposedly they are working on
- fixing it. Something about bad phone lines. Apparently, the problem stems
- from the fact that they just moved into a new building and are experiencing
- troubles with hookups. They say it should be taken care of "soon."
-
- As for getting hold of tech support people, they are experiencing growing pains.
- Again, they are aware of it, but it takes time to hire and train new tech
- supporters. I guess the release of Chameleon 4.0 and all the $99 copies
- they've been selling at the trade shows has overwhelmed them a bit. I hope
- this will improve soon.
-
- So, all you people out there who want to download the patch files, I guess
- you'll have to wait a little longer until they fix their problems.
-
- Personally, I like NetManage. They've always treated me well and I've been
- using their product since way back to version 2.00. I hope they can get their
- house in order.

- Subject: need a working telnet!
-
- I'm currently in the process of putting together a suite of Winsock-
- compliant apps for use on our network. So far, however, I've not
- been able to locate a telnet client that works! Every one I've tried
- so far either crashes or does really poor VT100 emulation. The
- most stable I've located so far is TRUMPTEL (thanks, Peter!) but
- it still has problems with random scrolling of text, hangs, etc.
-
- Several folks here have mentioned WS_TEL, but I can't find a site
- for it. Any pointers to it or some other working client would be
- appreciated!
