[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] IBM Token Ring packet driver

BHOLMES@WAYNEST1.BITNET (Brian Holmes) (12/19/89)

Well I got NCSA 2.2TN 3270 to work with the IBM Token Ring packet
driver.  I couldn't use DXMC1MOD.SYS which I need to run the
PC 3270 program.  Has anyone been able to use DXMC1MOD.SYS
with this driver?  I found the source for MIT's PCIP stuff,
but since I don't have Microsoft 'C' I can't compile it.
Is MIT's code available in compiled form from somewhere?
I wan't to use their GATEWAY software to try and route
between Ethernet and Token ring.  MIT's code supports RIP,
while IBM's only support GGP.

I could not get DXMC1MOD.SYS to work either, but, I did get PC3270
to work with DXMC0MOD.SYS.  If you have any problems let me know.

mst.

Ok, I did get PC3270 to work with DXMC0MOD.SYS but not while
also running the LAN program.  When I use DXMC1MOD.SYS and
run the LAN program I have to have 'es=1 est=1' as parameters
of DXMT0MOD.SYS.  The IBMTOKEN driver won't initialize with
these parameters and DXMC0MOD.SYS.

The *C1* is used with the IBM 3270 Work Station Program, whereas
the *C0* is used with the IBM PC 3270 Emulation Program V3.0x

The latest version for the former is 1.12 and the latter 3.05

>As the first parameter after DXMT0MOD.SYS set O=N

This allows me to set 'es=1 and est=1', but I still can't get
PC3270 to run under the LAN program with the Token Ring driver
loaded.  From the docs, I really need DXMC1MOD.SYS which the
Token Ring driver appears not to work with.

As I mentioned earlier, I was able to get the Token Ring
packet driver to work on my PS/2 50.  I'm now trying to
get it to work on an XT.  I have everything set up the
same as my PS/2, but machine just hangs when it get to
opening adaptor.  It looks like it doesn't know the
interupt of the Token Ring card.  Is there a way to tell
the driver what interupt to use?
