Subject: PC-NFS 4.0 and Trumpet Winsock problem
Hi,
I want to try out the Trumpet Winsock.DLL 1.0
recently ftp'ed from CICA. I am having problem
running WINPKT, specifically, it cannot recognize
any interrupt vector number as belonging to my
NDIS packet driver (I tried all valid intvec from
0x60 to 0x80).
My configuration consist of 3COM 3c509TP
EtherLink III adapter, and PC-NFS v4.0 on top
of MS DOS LANMAN v1.1. I have several network
drives NFS mounted on a Sun Sparc II file server.
The following is an excerpt from my config.sys
and autoexec.bat file. As you see, there does
not seems to be any statement that specify the
NDIS driver intvec, IRQ or IOaddress.
--------------------------------------
config.sys :
--------------------------------------
dos=high,umb
device=c:\nfs\pcnfs.sys
device=c:\nfs\sockdrv.sys
device=c:\lanman\protman.sys
device=c:\lanman\elnk3.dos
device=c:\lanman\nfs-ndis.sys
--------------------------------------
autoexec.bat :
--------------------------------------
path c:\windows;c:\dos;c:\trumpet
rem ---------
rem nfs stuff
rem ---------
set TZ=EST5EDT
set nfsdrive=c
set nfspath=c:\nfs
set path=%PATH%;c:\nfs
c:\lanman\netbind
c:\nfs\prt *
c:\nfs\net init

Subject: Re: 32 bit access with SCSI no available. Hunh? was Re: Win Mosaic alpha 4 (my fix)
Lets get this straight.
32 bit file access means using MS's new 32 bit file system. It handles caching
itself and eliminates the need for Smartdrive. Only available with WFWG 3.11
32 bit disk access means replacing the real mode ROM code with a 32 bit
protectedc mode implementation. This eliminates the need the switch modes for
every I/O access and results in a big performance boost.
This has been around since Windows 3.1, whee it was called FastDisk. Microsoft
wrote this based on a Western Digital WD1003 disk controller, a very common
controller. Most, but not all, IDE drives emulate this controller. Some SCSI
controllers, especially Future Domain, can also support this.
If your controller is not WD1003 compatible, your controller vendor must write a
device driver for Windows. This can be done for SCSI, IDE, ESDI, or whatever.
Some examples to prove my point. I have a 386sx box with a Seagate ST157A IDE
drive. Win 3.1 Fast disk doesn't work. I added a Plus Hardcard 50Z. FastDisk
doesn't work on that either, although the hard drive is a Quantum IDE. Quantum
came out with drivers and now FastDisk works on the Hardcard.
My desktop is an NCR 3350 with an MCA bus and onboard NCR 53C94 SCSI controller
running WFWG 3.11. 32 bit file AND disk access work great.
