I am currently using WinQVT/Net v.1.6, and I can manage to make it run under Standard mode. Can anyone explain why it would't run under Enhanced mode? The computer I am using is a CompuAdd 386/33, the Ethernet adapter is Western Digital 8003 E plus, the packet driver is Clarkson's WD8003E.COM. I have tried the packet driver comes with the ethernet card, it wouldn't work either. The error message I got is "local hosts not responding". Everytime I attemp to run WinQVT/Net under Enhanced Mode, it "hangs up" the ethernet card. My NCSA/telnet or CUTCP/telnet will tell me the same error msg, and a power up procedure has to performed to correct this. A seperate question, is there a standard way of writing packet driver interrupt vector? My command line switch for WD8003E.COM is 0x60 0x2 0x280 0xD400, but if I put "packet_vector=60 2 280 d400" into the QVT_TCP.RC file, the WinQVT.EXE will tell me "invalid keyword in configuration file", 5 times, even though all tcp/ip sessions will run without problems, so far. I have tried all combination of above numbers, it seems none will get rid of those error messages. Thanks for any suggestions/help. Jialin

I'm having trouble connecting to hosts outside of my subnet, what do I do? I have "gateway=1" set for the foreign host. -- +----------------------+---+ | Ross Johnson | | E-Mail: rpj@ise.canberra.edu.au | Info Sciences and Eng|___| | University of Canberra | UUCP : uunet!munnari!ise.canberra.edu.au!rpj | PO Box 1 | JANET : rpj%au.edu.canberra.ise@EAN-RELAY | Belconnen ACT 2616 | BITNET: rpj%ise.canberra.edu.au@relay.cs.net | AUSTRALIA | +--------------------------+

I am currently using WinQVT/Net v.1.6, and I can manage to
make it run under Standard mode. Can anyone explain why it
would't run under Enhanced mode?
I have wnqvtnet 1.6 running in standard mode but I have encountered
problems when reading news. There does not appear to be any
scroll bars for the area in which the news message is posted.
Any thoughts?

I have WNQVTNET 1.6 running on several computers. On a machine with a 800x600x256 VGA screen, I get scroll bars. On machines using 640x480x256 VGA or a 286 with an EGA (640x350), I see no scroll bars... -- Daniel Poirot poirot@aio.jsc.nasa.gov NASA JSC "The mind is a terrible thing."

I have found that wnqvtnet v1.6 news reader only allows scrolling of the news area after I have switched to another window, then back. ================================================================================ IBM - It may be slow but its hard to use. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Peter W.
