Hardware: IBM PS/2 70, Western Digital WD 8003 Ethercard Plus/A, Thin Ethernet Server: 3Com Etherlink Plus (to the Ethernet), WD 8003 (to the main network) Software: OS/2 v1.1, TCP/IP v1.0 Server: Interactive sysVr3 rel. 2.0.2 Problem: Cannot connect the PS/2 to the network. TCP/IP seems to find the route alright, but none of the services seem to work - they start, though. I'm using the server address as the default route, metric 0, netmask 255.255.255.0, broadcast should be alright. I have configured Communications manager properly, I have tried both IEEE 802.3 and Ethernet DIX v2.0 -options. No deal. I have the ps/2 ip-address and name in the /etc/hosts -file of the server, should I configure some kind of hosts file to the workstation itself for it to work? Is there something I should config more? I followed the TCP/IP configuration guide really closely, but there seems to be no explanation to this error. If anyone has experience of installing os/2 computers to ethernet? Any idea where I went wrong?

Also, TCP/IP product says it requires OS/2 1.2 or later. Oleg Vishnepolsky IBM T. J. Watson Research Center

These work with OS/2 of 1.0 and 1.1; FTP's doesn't require Com Manager (also a 1.2ism, I think). Ian... What? Signature file?

But still cannot ping, telnet or anything outside...strange. >Oleg Vishnepolsky >IBM T. J.
