- Are the other Novell workstations using Ethernet_II or Novell's 'raw' 802.3
- frames? If the other workstations are using 'raw' 802.3, set your CoExistence
- version of IPX.COM back to that with ECONFIG. (I can't remember the syntax
- off hand).
-
- If that works, then your server probably isn't using Ethernet_II properly.
-
- If that works, then there may be some other problem. Try setting up a
- bare system that just loads the NDIS drivers:
- CONFIG.SYS
- DEVICE=C:\DECNET\PROTMAN.SYS /I:C:\DECNET
- DEVICE=C:\DECNET\???????.DOS (NDIS driver for ethernet card)
- nothing else, except files, buffers and shell, as necesary)
-
- AUTOEXEC.BAT
- C:\DECNET\IPXNDIS.COM (or just IPX.COM)
- C:\DECNET\NETBIND
- NETX
-
- If this doesn't work, and there are no other error messages, and PathWorks
- did work, then install straight Novell drivers on this PC, and see if it can
- work that way. I would be inclined to point the finger at a bad NDIS driver
- for your Ethernet board at this point.
