Setup & Installation / Re: Ecomstation 1.0

« on: March 29, 2024, 06:20:43 pm »

A violation ? Serious?
I downloaded lot of iso's with a key . I am happy to not buy old systems like os/2.
They are not worth it anymore today .

Not really helpful at all to give a working key for a old operating system . It is not for sale anymore and the company does not exist anymore. Why there are people thinks this is piracy ? This is abadonware . Not for sale anymore . I try this system on a old pc . But without a key it is total useless. And i do not buy a old operating system. A shame to give no serial key for a old system . Like winworld.com they has no problem with serials. I ask on winworld for a serial . This place hide against piracy and ibm .come on . Ibm does nothing with os/2 anymore . So whats the problem ?

Hi

I was told that on the old Compuserve forums there where peope hired for FUD that usually post something not working about OS/2 (focusing on the weak spot), complain a lot, didn't have any patience and at the end say they are switching to Windows.

I would belive that on this case, but the OS wars were over a lot of years ago.

Jacco, welcome to the OS2World forum, do you want help with you OS/2 system? or just want to complain and FUD?

Warp 4 is very old, I would recommend you to at least to use Warp 4.52 or ArcaOS.
The out of the box file sharing on OS/2 (NETBIOS?), is not that compatible with Windows on purpose, becase Microsoft didn't want people with OS/2 can play nice with Windows, since they don't tolerate competition.
 
I have no idea how to install Samba on Warp 4, since it is very old, and we are using Warp 4.52, eComStaiton or ArcaOS. If you Warp 4 has an important business application that is used in producction I recommend to back up it first.

Regards

I want help of course . I have try it with warp server for ebusiness and it is the same problem . arcaos is not ready for my old pentium 2 with 128mb .

In other words you just wanted your 2 minuets of time in the spotlight and have no thought of learning how to use OS/2 or what is rerquired to work with other systems.

BTW all my OS/2 systems are able to communicate with the samba equipped NAS boxes without any problems.

I use warp 4.52 without internet and windows xp .  i use no samba because it is difficult to install without internet . And i know how networks work . the files and folders are visible but not in the workplace shell . only with the command shell and windows 3.1 from os/2 .

Hello . i have os/2 warp 4.52 installed on a old computer . everything works except the network shares folders. I have the warp pc connected to a windows xp laptop . log in with my username and password . After that i see the networkshares with the folders from the windows xp laptop but when i click on these folders i get no files . everything is empty. but when i goto the os/2 command shell i see the files in the folders . But not in the workplace shell . What can i do to fix that ? strange that it works only in the command prompt .
