Hello, I have a couple of DEPCA ethernet boards, both the old and new variety. I am trying to get them to work with NCSA Telnet. I have tried using version 9 of the Clarkson packet drivers, which I was told works only with the new DEPCA boards. I couldn't get it to work. The packet driver reset the card's ethernet address to all F's and the network administrators got mad. I have tried NCSA Telnet's built in decnet hardware type with both the old and new boards with no luck. No one has been able to tell me if the decnet type is for the new or old DEPCA boards. Has anyone had any luck with the DEPCA boards and Telnet? Does anyone have a phone number or email address of someone at DEC that could help me out? The documentation for the boards have no addresses or phone numbers to contact. Also, does anyone know of a diagnostic program for the old DEPCA boards? They didn't come with one. The new ones do. Thanks for your help. Jeff -- Jeff Bartig | (608) 262-5631 | The sooner you fall UW-Madison Psych Dept | | behind, the more time 1202 W. Johnson St. | jeffb@larry.sal.wisc.edu | you have to catch up.

Try sun.soe.clarkson.edu:pub/ka9q/depca.com. It works on the DE-200
