Which COM port and IRQ is it configured for? Is it an internal or an
external modem?

Subj: DB2/2.1 Connectivity problems between OS/2 and NT
From: "Jette Hannibal" <fam.hannibal@get2net.dk>
OS/2 warp connect 3.0 (Revision 8.264) via TCP/IP or NetBios.
I think that the problem resides in the layer between the operating system
and the database management system. But for now I am stopped cold without a
clue on where to go.
I'm positive that the TCP/IP configurations are correct on both client and
databaseserver. I have inserted port configurations in services files as
well as host names in the hosts files on both server and client. The OS/2
workstation (with the DB2 database) has a fixed IP adress which is
conneceted to the NNAME in the hosts file on both databaseserver and client.
The database is cataloged as remote.
I have tried the connection with NetBios as well. But the problem seems to
be the same. The client or client enabeler can not resolve the name and IP
adress to get a connection to the database whatever it is done from the
databaseserver (OS/2 workstation) or the client (NT 4.0. workstation)
I'm open to all suggestions
You are welcome to email me on fam.hannibal@get2net.dk
Sincerely
Kim

From: <dmcbride@hansolo.torolab.ibm.com>
Can I recommend cutting down on the newsgroups? I've set follow-ups to
comp.databases.ibm-db2 only, as it seems to be the only world-wide
newgroup that it is completely on-topic for.

The dbm cfg parameter, IIRC, that is relevant is the SVCENAME, not
NNAME. That alone may cause the problem.

I assume that, from the machine that will be the DB2 client, you can
"ping" the server. That is,
ping db2.server.com
doesn't complain. If you're using NetBIOS, however, the command to try
is more along the lines of "net view \\db2server". As long as this
command doesn't tell you it can't find the other system, you should be
okay.

Well.. you said you were open...
I tried DB2 and never got passed some really stupid setup problems. This was
on Wseb...
My solution? I dropped it like a rock and went with mSQL and then eventually
moved it all to mySQL. Setup is a breeze, security good and... run's great.

Subj: MAME for OS/2 .36 beta 9.1 is available
From: Marty <mamodeo@stny.rr.com>
MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator.
It allows you to play up to 1858 classic, and some not-so-classic arcade games
(from the 70's through the 90's) from the comfort of your OS/2 desktop.
The OS/2 version has been updated to the latest version of the MAME core (.36
beta 9.1). If you are upgrading from beta 6 or higher, it will automatically
update your Quick List and scan for newly supported games the first time you
start it up so you don't have to manually rescan everything from scratch and
erase your Favorites list.
Please know that I am still working on speedups, although this release mainly
updates the MAME core. I should have a new version of GPMixer (the audio
library used by MAME for OS/2) available soon which should improve the speed
of
games with sound considerably.
As always, you can download the latest release from
http://emuos2.vintagegaming.com.
Enjoy!
- Marty
