Until Peter finishes with the new Trumpet dialler, you can use any
communications program that'll redial; just set your modem not to drop carrier
when you exit the program (AT&D0 generally does the trick).  Redial with your
comm program until you hit carrier, exit the comm program and start TCPMAN,
then start rolling.

Among the popular diallers on the free/shareware front is dialexe.  Ask
archie...

Subject: BIND -ing control sockets and error 10022

I'm running Trumpet Winsock 1.0 Rev B beta 1 on a 386/Windows 3.1
and dial-up Dslip.  When trying to run WinQVT/Net Terminal (Rlogin) and
WinTalk, I sometimes get an error message:

WinQVT/Net:   Comm_Open: () bind error 10022

WinTalk:  Can't bind control socket.  Error no. 10022

Help a poor SLIP newbie who doesn't know his sockets
from his pockets!

Subject: Why did WSARCHIE stop working?

I have the March version of WSARCHIE, and it used to work fine.  But suddenly,
for no reason I can identify, it stopped working.  Specifically, whenever I
hit "search," it responds with WINSOCK ERROR: NO_DATA: No entry found. I
seem to recall that this means the DNS lookup failed.   All my other winsock
apps work fine.  The only thing I did that I can think of was to install
Mosiac 2.0a4, but I already had the win32s stuff installed while wsarchie was
working.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Michael.

I have exactly the same problem. But I'm not 100% sure that they arose after I
installen Win32s and Mosaic. Most likely, though. However, even reinstalling
WSArchie didn't help.

Could you let me know which winsock stack you are using and which version of
wsarchie. Both these can be found in the about dialog under the help menu.

I am using Win Trumpet 1.0A.  I can not see a way to edit a file first, and
then include that file in a posting using Trumpet.  I checked FTP sites, and
it looks like 1.0A is it.  Can anyone help me?  I prefer to take time to write
and edit my more critical postings, but I haven't yet found a way.

Thanks in advance,

Russell Nelson has promised a Crynwr PLIP driver that will
be compatible with the Linux PLIP driver sometime in the
near future.

We have a similar setup here at work, except we are running Lan Manager over
3Com Ethernet boards.  If your UB cards turn out to be NDIS
compliant (probably is) then you should be able to use the NDIS shim DIS_PKT9
driver along with the WINPKT.COM supplied with the Trumpet Winsock.  Look in
the documentation that comes with Trumpet for installing these two drivers.
They seem to work well here. One place you can FTP the shim from is
    ftp.utas.edu.au /pc/dos/net/ndis/dis_pkt9.zip
Hope it helps!

I have seen several notes that reference difficulty
using the FTP client in Chameleon to access Microsoft's
public FTP server on the Internet.  There is a quick solution.

Users should set the system type to UNIX when connecting to
Microsoft's FTP server using Chameleon. Interestingly, the machine
in question is running NT.

Reason is as Follows:
An NT FTP server can output 2 different formats for a directory
listing.  The default is extended DOS format and that is what the
Chameleon FTP client expects when it finds an NT server.

However, an NT server can also be configured to output a Unix
style format.  That is what Microsoft has done for
their Internet FTP server.
