First, I periodically post this request: Does anyone have or is anyone working on drivers that let Novell and TCP/IP work together. I understand there is an archive that contains these drivers, but I haven't seen one that works with the PS/2 70 & 80's with Ungermann Bass Ethernet cards. Second, several weeks back I put a 'help' request on the net concerning MUXPRC() problems on our Netware server. The summary of the advise was 1) flacky memory chips and 2) bad power supply. Unfortunately I do not believe either was the problem. I have determined (again correct me) that when one of our clients (30 of them) has a loose connections between the transciever and the tran. cable to the UB board, 'it throws trash? on the net?'. This is the only thing I can come up with. Every time I saw MUXPRC and the server stopping, about once every ten days, sure enough, a client would have a loose connection (these happen when you buy from the cheapest bidder). Could this short? the net or throw trash packets on the net causing the server to crash? /*----------- Thanks in advance... --------------------------------------+ | Peter C.

What version of NetWare are you seeing the MUXPRC errors on? We had them fairly often under 2.15; upgrading to 2.15c seems to have fixed them completely. -- Dave Anderer danderer@sun.acs.udel.edu (302) 451-8805 Instructional Technology, University of Delaware, Newark, De. 19716 "Sinners can repent; stupid is forever."
