[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] NCSA telnet2.2d with packet driver slip

joseph@blake.acs.washington.edu (Joseph Chan) (04/18/89)

I have down-loaded the NCSA telnet2.2d and packet driver slip8250
from sun.soe.clarkson.edu.   I can not make it to work.
Any help will be much appreciated.

The hardwares are: Zenith data system 286 machine running MS-DOS 3.30
with Hayes Smart Modem 1200.

To load the packet driver,  I used:
    slip8250 0x60 slip 2 0x2f8 1200
where I used com2 for modem.

To configure telnet for slip,  I editted config.tel files with
the following parameters:
      hardware=packet
      interrupt=2
      address=6
      ioaddr=0x60

Here are the error message from telnet program:
   packet driver return error on driver_info call
   could not initialize hardware level network driver
   error initializing network or getting configuration file.

Thank you in advance for any help you may have.
