I'm having nothing but trouble getting `pcip' up and running. I have
a `western digital ethercard plus' board I'm trying to hook up to a
SunOS thin-net. I also seem to have the `pcip' distribution
dated July 11, 89 with the `cmu' enhancements. I am using
Microsoft C V5.1 & MASM 5.1 under ms-dos v3.3.
After I get past the problem of `make' failing because some of the
filenames are greater that 8 characters (I went in & edited the makefiles),
I went in & fixed (for instance) ping to create `wping', linked with
the `wd8003' library.
I add to config.sys `device=netdev.sys', run `custom' on \netdev.sys,
specifing the hardware & internet addresses of the pc & the server.
I reboot & run `wping'. Wping tells me there is no internet address
specified for the pc. However, when I re-run `custom', it's in there.
What am I doing wrong?
And BTW: How are those makefiles created. I do need to change some
of them (for the wd board, etc), but don't see the `master' used
to create the versions for `[34][nd]'. And what is `mmake.exe'
Thanks.
