I cannot get any of the standard pd/shareware  tcp programs*
to work with MS new vxd driver -- unless I load WS_GMAIL SMTP
Listener first then they all work fine.

*Mosaic, qws3270, ws_ftp, ws_ping, wsarchie

I've been running trumpet for some time with no problems

Any suggesting would be appreciated

My mistake (sort of).
In my previous posting:

I had  WS_GMAIL in a separate directory
from all the other program tcp apps.  They were in the same directory
as trumpet, they all tryed to load trumpet and of course
failed because I had disabled it.  Removing trumpet
from my tcpapps dir allowed all the above programs
to run fine with out loading ws_gmail.

It seems to me these apps should have checked to see
if Sockets was available before loading trumpet.

OK, here we go, Internet 101.

There is NO SUCH THING AS A "MOSAIC CLIENT", Mosaic is a WWW [World Wide Web]
client... as is LYNX and CELLO.

I hope this helps. The net is getting bigger, and sucking in many people, so
pass the word.

Subject: xserver and display question

Scenerio :

     -Running win trumpet 1.0 rev a to connect to a slip server.
     -Using Microx (xwindemo) to try to display an xterm from
      one of the sparc machines to my pc.

questions :

    -the slip server will return a dynamic ip address, and I changed
     it manual in the tcpman setup.  What address should I
     put for the name server ? (what does DNS searches mean ?)
    -Is there a unix command that I can use to find out which is
     the name server ?
    -Is there a way for me to find out the default gateway ip address ?
        -When I tried to display an xterm from (dale.ucdavis.edu
          ip 128.120.8.149 ) to the dynamic address chosen by slip,
     ( 128.120.250.65 )it would give the following message:

         Xlib: connect to 128.120.250.65:0.0 refused bu server
     Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to server
        Error: Can't open display 128.120.250.65:0.0

        is there anything I need to do the the hosts file that
    comes with winsock.zip ?


Thanks

The current 1.4 version of Eudora calls WSAStartup() and WSACleanup() once
per session.  I've fixed this in the current commercial version of Eudora,
which calls the two functions for each connection.

It appears that the Trumpet WinSock waits for the WSACleanup() call before
it hangs up the modem.  It should probably hangup the modem after a certain
period of idle time even if WSACleanup() hasn't been called, just to be a
little more robust.
