First off, I would like to know if anyone is using the winsock stuff with
Banyan Vines.

Second, how do you do it?  I was told that the ip address is set dynamically.
So I assume that it may be different each time someone logs on.  Is that what
this bootp stuff is all about?

I have never messed with Banyan Vines, but I am looking into it, so I would
love to hear from someone using Banyan networks.

Thanks

Could someone please direct me to a good file that explains the details of
winsock and how it works.  (like the FAQ maybe)

We've had really good luck with FTP's product.  We use PPP for INET/Informix
connectivity and have also run eudora across it (in fact I'm doing it right
now).

You should get the WSARCHIE alfa version 0.2 from ftp.sunet.se in /pub/pc/windows/wsarchie
and WS_FTP version 94.03.25 from ftp.usma.edu in /pub/msdos.

If you put WSArchie and WS_FTP in e.g c:\internet\programs and wants FTP'ed programs in
e.g c:\internet\incoming, the following should apply:

Program Item Progerties:
Description:    WSArchie                WS_FTP
Command line:    c:\internet\programs\wsarchie.exe    c:\internet\programs\ws_ftp.exe
Working dir.:    c:\internet\incoming            c:\internet\incoming

In WSARCHIE.INI:
[FTP]
Command=c:\internet\programs\ws_ftp %h:%d/%f
FtpUserName=anonymous
FtpPassword=unknown@
FtpDirectory=c:\internet\incoming


This works just fine for me!

Mark (et al),

Have you tried the v4004.exe yet?

I got it from ftp.uu.net, cd vendor/NetManage, bin, get v4004.exe.

I didn't notice whether there's a new winsock.dll -- but I have
been seeing crashes with WINSOCK.DLL with the v4004 installed.

So -- maybe not...

Pat

Anyon else having problems with the TC/IP-32beta dropping characers?
Iget the message 'comm_write_char:send() error 10036' from Win QVT
3.97 for Winsock.

Any thoughts?  I corrected bug #139, and everything works pretty well
(although its slow) with Netware, NDI and  TCP/IP.

Our NT servers were supposed to have arrived months ago; we have a Visual C++
CD already, for them.  Once they are set up I'm hoping to find out why
WSGopher doesn't work with NT.

WS_PING I can understand, since you can't do ICMP within the WinSock spec.
