Of course I wanted it to run on packet drivers, so then I read the docs and proceeded to compile more exe's using packet.lib. This is fine for progs like ping, telnet etc. These run perfectly. But I can't get NETWATCH to compile. The one proram I wanted. Can anyone advise? Here is the link line from the makefile ... link netwatch,dnetwatc/noi/noe,nul,h19 netwatch enetwatc net packet task pc; and here are the errors I get ... _pproc in file(s): NETWATCH.LIB(display.c) _pkts in file(s): NETWATCH.LIB(display.c) _npackets in file(s): NETWATCH.LIB(time.c) NETWATCH.LIB(display.c) NETWATCH.OBJ(netwatch.c) _prcv in file(s): NETWATCH.LIB(display.c) Has anyone suddessfully got netwatch running over packet drivers?
