- We'd like to start installing wisock applications in our labs
- running windows.
-
- Since each individual workstation will have it's own IP address
- we'd like to store the TRUMPWSK.INI file on the root of the local
- hard drive.
-
- To minimize local disk usage we'd still like to keep TCPMAN.EXE and
- WINSOCK.DLL on a networked Windows directory. Is there a way to point
- to the TRUMPWSK.INI file so local workstations use this?
-
- I'm aware of the TCPMAN command line switches but this isn't quite
- what I'm looking for.

- Neat! It works well. I will study the script in more detail,
- but it appears that this is the best solution for shell users. As for
- SLIP ones, I may try to build a Winsock app for that. It might be
- primitive at first, but it would be a first try, of course.
-
- Thanks. Where did you get the seekrit information for the
- script?

- Time to stand up in support of MS (sigh...)
-
- On my 486-25 test machine running Wolverive over Microsoft's NDIS2 NE2000 driver,
- I get 222Kbytes/s to my NT machine from WinQVT's ftp client.
-
- Over the Microsoft NDIS3 NE2000 driver, I get 233Kbytes/s on the same test.
-
- Using WS_FTP (ftp client) I get 267651bytes/s to a Sparcstarion2.
-
- Finally, running FTPD on the workgroups machine, and using
- WS_FTP on my NT machine, I get 87489bytes/s transfering to
- and 262467bytes/s transfering from.
-
- As a comparison, between two NT 486-66 machines, using native
- ftp client and server, I get 451Kbytes/s.
-
- There are one or two wrinkles with Wolverine, but It is most certainly
- not slow in general.
-
- I've also not seen any slow DNS queries as reported.
- There does seem to be some kind of problem with applications
- which lookup hosts with CNAME entries. I've seen this with
- the real-mode microsoft stack too.
