[comp.dcom.lans] econfig and WD8003 cards

david@uhccux.uhcc.hawaii.edu (David Lassner) (08/23/89)

Has anyone gotten BYU's "econfig" program to successfully
work with Novell shells or servers using Western Digital's
Novell drivers?  I have both a WD8003E and an ET/A and
can't get them to work in either servers or workstations
after econfig-ing to use Ethernet rather than 802.3.  For
the microchannel server I was able to bring up a 3C523 and
econfig it with no problems, and for the workstation the
Packet Driver works fine in place of the econfig'ed WD driver.
Is there another driver around that works with the WD8003ET/A
in a microchannel machine?  Is there a list of cards/drivers
for which econfig is known to work?

You probably need a later version of the WD drivers.  I have V2.11.20
for the workstation shells.  The server drivers that came with this
version Econfig fine.  To get the latest drivers contact WD or
download them from Compuserve via the Novell forum data library
NOVSOFT.
