« on: 2008.09.22, 19:18:50 »I have now gotten IP and IPX working so I can connet to my netware servers
I had to do a lot of googling but with the help from hobbs and a howto there on the subject I got it working with the ODI2NDI.0S2 driver.

I've made a quick search on hobbes but don't find the howto. Would you please give me the filename or explain the steps you have to do?I
Yes I shall trye. the hobbs file is here: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-browse.php?dir=/pub/os2/util/network/netware/ntwrtcp.zip
I tride first the odi setup. Removd my network card from os/2 setyp. And following the setup of netcfg.isa, autoexec.isa and protocol.isa. Just renamed the SMC8000 driver file that was just there with my 3c90x driver.
Thise workt for a ipx only net. By I wanted ipx and ip.
So I tride tcpnet.txt setup. There you have a working os/2 networksetup with ip.
Then you install the netware client. But when it asks for the networkdriver you give 'c:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\ODI2NDI.OS2' then when the network setup is finish you make a net.cfg file.
my net.cfg:
LINK Support
LINK DRIVER 3C90X
FRAME ETHERNET_802.3
FRAME ETHERNET_802.2
FRAME ETHERNET_ii
FRAME ETHERNET_snap
PROTOCOL IPX 0 ETHERNET_802.3
PROTOCOL IPX E0 ETHERNET_802.2
PROTOCOL IP 800 ETHERNET_II
PROTOCOL ARP 806 ETHERNET_II
PROTOCOL RARP 8035 ETHERNET_II
Protocol odinsup
bind 3c90x
Protocol Stack IPX
bind 3c90x
Protocol TCPIP
bind 3c90x
ip_address 192.168.0.14
ip_router 192.168.0.4
tcp_sockets 8
udp_sockets 8
raw_sockets 1
Thise is with a set ip adress and gatway. Havent tride with dhcpclient yet.
Start up the os/2 network setup program and select the 'Netware Requester' from protocol. Dobbel click on it and go true the setup. You must setup the the network card adress. I didt not now it. So i found that if you install IEEE 802.2 and look at a log file for network on bootup you will find it. Sorry can't rember where it is or the name.
Hope it helps.
I alsow installd nwadmin tools for OS/2. The work. But a bit slow....

- Now I use Norton commander/Midnigth commander to copy/move/edit files, what do I use under os/2?File commander - LarsenCommander, FM/2 (GUI), FC2 (? CLI)
- VNC client
VNC - pmvnc103_ow.zip on hobbes

I shall trie them.
I'm woundering. I don't think the system is very fast.
Rigth now I have telned server, timed, novell client, nwadmin, 4os2 windows, text editor, programfiles, mIRC, command promt window and IBM Web browser.
Where do I look for optimasing? And is there a good 'About thise computer' program? Better than
'Hardware manager'
Thanks
