- To run Windows for Workgroups, Novell IPX, and TCP together, you need the
- WINQVT/NET package and the DIS_PKT9 driver (from wuarchive.wustl.edu or
- other mirror site: windows3/QVTNET31.ZIP and pktdrvr/DIS_PKT9.ZIP). Then you
- need to make some changes to your configuration files. The examples that
- follow assume that you have installed WFW with IPX and that everything is
- working on your system.
-
- Here are config.sys, autoexec.bat, and protocol.ini changes needed to run
- tcp on top of the windows for workgroups ndis driver. The lines you will
- need to add begin with a "*" -- don't actually add the "*". Your files may
- have a different card driver than ne2000 and you will need to replace
- "MS$NE2CLONE" in the `bindings=MS$NE2CLONE` line with the label for your
- card. Simply copy the "BINDINGS=XXXX" line from the [MS$IPX] section.
- Good luck.

- EXPLANATION FROM uSOFT.
-
- The answer is basically that you will not be able run PDIPX, but you should
- be able to get MSIPX and QVT/Net working together fine. Right now your
- protocol stacks look something like:
- +-------+----------+
- |PDIPX | QVT's TCP|
- +-------+----------+
- |Packet Card Driver|
- +------------------+
- With WFW they would look like:
- +--------+-----------+----------+
- |NetBEUI | MSIPX.COM | QVT's TCP|
- |vnb.386 | MSIPX.SYS | DIS_PKT |
- +--------+-----------+----------+
- | NDIS Card Driver |
- +-------------------------------+
-
- With WFW you get all the pieces above except DIS_PKT which is a part of
- the Clarkson distribution. It provides a packet driver interface on the
- top but sits on top of NDIS instead of a real card.
-
- None of this is "officially" supported by Microsoft, but I'm certain it
- will work. If you run into trouble, with it give me a shout.
