I recently downloaded EXCELAN packet drivers and related files from VAX.FTP.COM I also went through the Clarkson stuff on various FTP servers. device=c:\lanman\excfg.bin device=c:\lanman\protman.dos /I:\LANMAN device=c:\lanman\dis_pkt.dos device=c:\lanman\xln2x5.dos I have the above lines in my config.sys and set EXCELAN=C:\XLN set NAME=barryf prompt $p$g c:\lanman\pktint call c:\xln\bin\tcp c:\xln\bin\telapi in my autoexec.bat file. I receive no error messages after/during loading all this, though I receive NO PACKET DRIVER LOADED error messages when I try to run various applications (WATTCP's TCPINFO, PING, etc.). Win QVTNET 1.6x exits to DOS when I try to run it. I also tried to run a POP2/3 mail program from UMN.EDU with similar results. On the otherhand, all EXCELAN utilities work (I am using their TELNET app now). The board and connections check out, etc. Anyone with an EXCELAN 205T (w/256k RAM) or similar lan adapter with similar problems or a working set of config.sys and autoexec.bat files please email me or post to the list. thanks barry -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Barry B.
