Has anyone gotten the NE2000 packet driver to work with the BYU
ipx program? I can load the packet driver (and make it work with NCSA),
and load the BYU program, but NET4 hangs. This has happened with two
machines. I can get this setup to work fine with other cards.
And a couple of NCSA 2.3 questions: does anyone else have the
problem that when they exit NCSA, they can't see their prompt? Some users
wait, thinking their connection is not closed. I can see my prompt
when I hit <CR>, but it confuses others.
When you try and open a connection with NCSA, does it try and open
two connections to the same place?dth@TXS.PITT.EDU (Daniel Holtzman) (06/05/91)

As for the disappearing prompt, I had that problem too. Since I have my users access NCSA via a batch file which is the same name as the local hosts they normally attach to I added an ECHO statement in the batch file. This way when they end the session, the ECHO statement is executed in the batch file, and the DOS prompt reappears. I'm not at my PC, but I do believe it will open multiple connections to the same host. Daniel Holtzman dth@txs.pitt.edu

I have been using the NE2000 packet driver and the BYU shell on my 386 for about a month. I run DOS 4 with windows and have had no problems with the packet drivers. I have been using the 3.02 versions of IPX and NET4.
