- Dear readers,
-
-
- First of all, I know this is probably not the correct group for this question,
- but I really didn't find a group that suited the subject. And since it is
- about a MS-DOS driver...
-
-
- Problem:
- Currently I'm using a LAN which is connected to both an Unix server and
- an OS/2 server. The first can be reached when I load PC-NFS on my
- machine. To reach the latter, I have to load NETBEUI (Lan Manager).
- Since I have to access both servers (Unix for E-Mail, connections to the
- world :-), etc; OS/2 for NOTES, Programs, etc), I have to reboot my
- machine each time I want to do something on the other server. Concurrent
- access is not possible.
-
- What I want:
- A driver that implements both the NETBEUI and the PC-NFS layer. So,
- NOTES (which has to use NETBEUI) sees NETBEUI, and telnet sees PC-NFS
- (or TCP/IP to be correct).
- MS Windows should see PC-NFS when MSW is set up for PC-NFS and it
- should see NETBEUI when it is set up for NETBEUI.
-
- So the question(s):
- Does such a driver exist?
- Did you have the same problem and solved it differently?
- Do you see other solutions?
-
-
- You can follow-up to this article, but if this is the wrong place, you could
- also mail me.
-
- With Regards (and Best Whishes for '93),
