Has anyone managed to get WNQVTNET to work simultaneously with novell netware, also using the packet drivers? I can't seem to get them both to run, while using windows 3.0 off the network. WNQVT/NET just comes up with a network initialisation error. Any ideas? -- ============================================================================== | Hamish Marson <hamish@waikato.ac.nz> | | Computer Support Person, Computer Science Department | | University of Waikato | |Disclaimer: Anything said in this message is the personal opinion of the | | finger hitting the keyboard & doesn't represent my employers | | opinion in any way.

Yes, seems to work fine, though WNQVTNET is a slight bit unstable - i.e. it crashes the machine hard every once in a while. Here's my setup: IBM PS/2 Model 55SX DOS 4.0 3COM 3C523 (Etherlink/MC) card 3C523 packet driver version 7.1.1, invoked with -w (windows compatibility) pktint driver (comes with WinQVT/Net - necessary, I believe) Novell revision 3 shells running in extended memory (XMSNET4) Windows 3.0 running in 386 enhanced mode WinQVT/Net version 1.31 I'm seriously considering switching to Windows as my default environment now that I've found WinQVT/Net ($10 - what a bargain). >-- >============================================================================== >| Hamish Marson <hamish@waikato.ac.nz> | >| Computer Support Person, Computer Science Department | >| University of Waikato | >|Disclaimer: Anything said in this message is the personal opinion of the | >| finger hitting the keyboard & doesn't represent my employers | >| opinion in any way.

Novell revision 3 shells running in extended memory (XMSNET4)
Windows 3.0 running in 386 enhanced mode
WinQVT/Net version 1.31
You shouldn't need to use the -w switch. It just ensures that Windows
doesn't swap your application out from under the packet driver. WinQVT/Net's
pktint driver takes care of this case for you.
