I am using PC-NFS 3.0.1 with a 3C503 board using the packet driver "glue" PKTD.SYS out of compat.tar.Z from clarkson. I changed the jumpers on the board to use shared memory and installed the packet driver 3C503.COM from drivers. PC-NFS works just fine. However, NCSA telnet works but is hanging PC-NFS after exitting from telnet. I have set CONFIG.TEL to use the hardware option of 3C503. This implies it is using the hardware directly and leaving it in a funny state. The other option in CONFIG.TEL is to specify hardware=packet. I get the following messages: NCSA Telnet 2.3b8, reading configuration file . . . Marning, packet driver vector invalid, using default search W Packet Access Type Error 10 Can't Access IP handle interface type 1 Packet driver probably not loaded Packet Access Type Error 10 Can't Access IP handle interface type 1 Packet driver probably not loaded Board initialisation failed! Error code=2 Error initialising network or getting configuration file Cannot initialise board. The essential bits of my autoexec.bat are: 3C503 0x60 3 0x300 0 and my config.sys: device=pcnfs.sys device=sockdrv.sys device=pktd.sys Has anyone any ideas on this? Does documentation exist for NCSA Telnet 2.3b8 yet? Will Sun be releasing a version of PC-NFS which will allow third party telnets (and other goodies) to sit on top their drivers?

The packet driver doesn't support more than one application per packet type at a time. PCNFS is using packet the packet type IP (also ARP, RARP, maybe others) and telnet is also trying to use the IP packet type. The packet driver was not designed to do this. NetWare and telnet work together because they each use differecnt packet types.

It runs CUTE (the Clarkson adaptation of the NCSA code) on top of the PC-NFS kernal. You may still want to use pktd.sys and a version 5 packet driver; I've had better luck (so far) with it over the PC-NFS distributed interface drivers. BTW, does anyone have the pktd.sys that works with version 6.0 packet drivers available for anonymous FTP? Last I checked, the old pktd.sys was still the only one on the Clarkson servers.
