I couldn't find one on the install CD. I looked for a file net.* to account
for a possible compressed version of the file. No go. The only net.acc on this
system was in the \IBMLAN\INSTALL and this made me a little suspicious. I
looked on another system and it looks the business end of the net.acc file
should go in the \IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS directory. This directory was otherwise empty
on the machine in question. So, I copied it there ... with no change in
behavior.

Only a little. I've been doing so much debugging and diagnosing on this
machine, opening a command line window probably would have been a likely first
step anyway.

Will do ... once I've resolved this problem.

Yes. TCP/IP works fine.

Well, at least the card driver is loaded. I'll try and do that next.

Where can I find the guide? I tried executing that from a command line but I
guess from your description, it needs to run from the MPTS context?
