On the Netware servers console: First, you need to load your ethernet drivers (*.LAN) twice, once with the frame=Ethernet_802.3 parameter, and once (with antoher name=...) with a frame=Ethernet_II. The last frame type is for the IP-packets. The IPX packets get an 802.3-frame, so both frametypes are used on the same cable! Then you load the TCP/IP protocol stack TCPIP.NLM with the FORWARD=YES parameter (for TCP/IP routing between boards on your netware server). After that you need to bind IP to the Ethernet_II drivers with BIND IP TO <cardname> <ADDRESS=w.x.y.z.>. With the "LOAD TCPCON" command you can configure the router. IP-numbers are already assigned in the BIND-lines. Check the novell TCP/IP manuals for the rest. >Don't forget, you can also buy IPX for solaris... and Caldera for Linux... Ah - And SPX then ? That's the TCP and network filesytem of Netware, isn't it ? ObLowButgetWWWServerHack: On my previous school, there wasn't a (working...) UNIX system... We did have 3 novell netware servers instead, scattered over over couple of thin ethernet (RG-58) cables (*). Well, I set up the TCP/IP part, then I discovered the free FTPD.NLM (wow!) at ftp.utelscin.el.utwente.nl. Installed it, walked to the supervisor's desk (I wasn't), and asked her to create a user anonymous, without a password, but with access to the SYS:PUB directory. Then loading my workstations' ethernet drivers also with ethernet_II, running WINPKT 0x60, starting windows, configuring TCPMAN at 0x60 too, assign a static IP-address (damn, I need ARP/RARP/BOOTP working), and starting netscape. URL: ftp://145.90.32.250/sys/pub/index.htm. Whow - it works! And ftpd.nlm has a feature that I didn't find in another novell-util: Listing all the mounted devices in the ftp-root dir. Handy when someone has mounted a CD-ROM and keeps the volume name secret! (*) The ARCNET/RG-62 subnets is still a problem - anyone a hint to make Netware route IPXPKT (=IP in IPX)? JNOS against JNOS (packetradio: PI5VLS) is running well with IPXPKT-IPXPKT drivers. Hope this helps, Mark-Jan PS: Our schools network wasn't linked to the internet, we even hadn't an internet-account for our school then. But we had registered a B-domain: 145.90.x.x, which I used to configure the network. I'm still hoping to ping my servers from the internet over a couple of time... -- Mark-Jan mbast@xs4all.nl http://www.xs4all.nl/~mbast/
