I got PCNFS to work with the packet driver, but TN3270 won't run using the packet driver now. TN3270 says it got an error #10 and that the packet driver probably wasn't installed. PCNFS is running fine on it. Has anyone run TN3270 under PCNFS using packet drivers? Did you have to append any commands to PCNFS.SYS? TN3270 works fine with the packet driver when I don't load PCNFS. Any ideas?

PC-NFS and the NCSA TN3270 both want to use Ethernet packet types 0x800 (IP) and 0x806 (ARP). The Packet Driver can't deliver packets to both, and you'd get arguments between the two ARP implementations if it did. To do this, you need either a TN3270 modified to use Sun's socket library and TCP transport, or PC/TCP's Interdrive and TN3270, which already share a common transport kernel. James B.

>I got PCNFS to work with the packet driver, but TN3270 >won't run using the packet driver now... Unfortunately, they are both asking the packet driver for the same (IP and ARP) packets. You need for SUN to release a TN3270 option for their kernel (or buy a new product which supports both NFS and TN3270). FTP software supports both, as does Beame, we support TN3270 with NFS out soon. enjoy, leo j mclaughlin iii The Wollongong Group ljm@twg.com

Clarkson University is currently porting their version of TN3270 to PC-NFS. It will be done RSN. Just a few minor bugs to work out. | Brad Clements bkc@omnigate.clarkson.edu bkc@clutx.bitnet | Network Engineer Clarkson University (315)268-2292
