In the past, I've used Msdos 3.14 in a dialup environment but today attempted
to use it over a network cable.
Using an EtherExpress Pro and the packet driver that came with it
(epropkt.com), I was unable to make a connection to the host. I set my tcp/ip
address, set a gateway (even though we aren't using one -- we just happen to
have an NT server on the same network cable), set a subnetmask and tried to
telnet to the unix box using the address of the host rather than a name.
Kermit tries to resolve the host address but can't and therefore never
connects. It says the host may not be up or I may need to set up a gateway.
These efforts have been from DOS.
If I go into wfw 3.11 on this machine, I have a stack from Microsoft that I
downloaded from their site and I'm able to telnet to the unix box using an
emulator called Wterm. No problems. It's just my kermit setup from DOS that's
failing.
I realize I haven't given much information to go on, but I would certainly
appreciate any help I can get. Again, this is the first time I've tried to
configure msdos kermit to work on a network.
