MORE INFORMATION ================ There are three configuration options available of running PC/TCP version 2.3 in Windows for Workgroups version 3.11, which are with NetBEUI only, NetBEUI and NetBIOS, and NetBIOS only. NetBEUI Only ------------ 1. Choose Real Mode NDIS Driver (NDIS2) during the Windows for Workgroups Setup procedure. 2. Make the following changes to the CONFIG.SYS file: - Verify the following line: "Device=:\\ifshlp.sys" (without the quotation marks) - Remove any entries that load the Protocol manager or an NDIS-specific NIC driver. 3. Make the following changes to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file: - Make sure that the NET START command precedes any TSRs (Terminate and Stay Resident programs). NOTE: Remove the NETBIND command if it exists. - Add the following line to load the PC/TCP kernel after the NET START command: ":\\Kernel" (without the quotation marks) 4. Make the following changes to the SYSTEM.INI file: - Verify and add the following line to the [Boot] section: "Network.drv=wfwnet.drv Secondnet.drv=:\\pctcpnet.drv" (without the quotation marks) - Add the following line to the [386Enh] section: "Secondnet=drive:\path\vpctcp.386" (without the quotation marks) - If you are going to use PC-NFS to mount remote drivers or printers, add the following line to the [386Enh] section: "Device=drive:\path\wfwftp.386" (without the quotation marks) NOTE: You must use the WFWFTP.386 file available through FTP Software Technical Support BBS at (508) 659-6240. The filename is WFW311.EXE. The WFWFTP.386 file created for Windows for Workgroups 3.11 will also work with Windows for Workgroups 3.1, but not the other way around. - Verify and add the following entries are in the [network drivers] section: "Netcard= Transport=ndishlp.sys,*netbeui, :\\dis_pkt.gup LoadRMDrivers=Yes" (without the quotation marks) 5. Make the following changes to the PROTOCOL.INI file: - Add a [PKTDRV] section and the following entries: "[PKTDRV] DriverName=PKTDRV$ Bindings= IntVec= ChainVec=" (without the quotation marks) NOTE: Common interrupts available for entries IntVec and ChainVec are 0x60 and 0x65, respectively. 6. Restart your computer to start running Windows for Workgroups over the NetBEUI stack. NetBEUI and NetBIOS ------------------- 1. Follow steps 1 - 5 from the previous section of NetBEUI Only. 2. Add the following line to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file: ":\\Netbios" (without the quotation marks) 3. Make the following changes to the PROTOCOL.INI file: - In the [network.setup] section, change the lana0= entry to lanax= (where x is the next available adapter number). - In the [NETBEUI] section, change LANABASE=0 to LANABASE=x (where x is the same number as the adapter number in the previous bullet). 4. Make the following changes to the PCTCP.INI file: - In the [pctcp netbios] section, include the following NetBIOS specific parameters: "[pctcp netbios] Ncbs=64 Names=32 Sessions=n (where n equals the same value that is assigned to the Tcp-Connections= entry in the [pctcp kernel] section of the PCTCP.INI file)." (without the quotation marks) 5. Restart your computer to start running Windows for Workgroups over the NetBEUI and NetBIOS stacks. NetBIOS Only ------------ 1. Follow all the steps in the two previous sections of NetBEUI Only and NetBEUI and NetBIOS. 2. Comment out the NetMisc= and Transport= entries in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file by placing a semicolon (;) in front of each entry. For example: " ;NetMisc= ;Transport= " (without the quotation marks) 3. Restart your computer to start running Windows for Workgroups over the NetBIOS stack.
