Can WINQVTNET run with SUN PC-NFS V3.5? I get an unable to open session error message when PC-NFS is installed. config.sys is :- device=c:\nfs\pcnfs.sys /f50 /s nfs\sockdrv.sys nfs\pktd35.sys packet driver is :- wd8003e -w 0x79 3 0x300 0xd000

I have been told, and there have been postings around on this, that you fundamentally can NOT run the two packages together. The problem is that packets get grabbed by only one of the programs and are never seen by the other. The "register for what packets you want" mechanism does not help in this case because both programs want some of the same packet types. This at least is how I interpret what I've read. This is, of course, a huge disappointment because the combination of PC-NFS and winqvtnet would be VERY attractive. I'd like to see some confirmation or other comments on this.
