Well, that is where the dump data pointed me.

Yes. You copied a lot of extra files. Of course, on the good side you
can now set up almost any type of networking you want, even if you don't
need to.

If you are using the Java GUI MPTS, you probably need some blank lines at
the end of config.sys, protocol.ini and so forth. It's a known problem.

You can remove a lot. You will know when you have removed too much when
you start get boot error messages or error reports in lantran.log.

I don't keep all that close track of what is common code and what is not,
but I'm always willing to guess.

>Here are the lines I added to the config.sys:
>DEVICE=z:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\LANPDD.OS2 <-- remove??

Not sure.

>DEVICE=z:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\LANVDD.OS2 <-- remove??

Yes.

>DEVICE=z:\IBMCOM\LANMSGDD.OS2 /I:z:\IBMCOM /S <-- remove??

Not sure.
>
>DEVICE=z:\IBMCOM\PROTMAN.OS2 /I:z:\IBMCOM

No.

>DEVICE=z:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\SOCKETSK.SYS

No.

>DEVICE=z:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFOS2.SYS

No.

>DEVICE=z:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFINETK.SYS

No.

>DEVICE=z:\MPTN\BIN\VDOSTCP.VDD

Yes. This the the DOS TCP/IP shim.

>DEVICE=z:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFNB.SYS /S:100 /C:225 /N:21 <--
>remove??

Yes. It's for NETBIOS.

>RUN=z:\MPTN\BIN\AFNBINI.EXE <--
>remove??

Yes. More NETBIOS.

>RUN=z:\MPTN\BIN\CNTRL.EXE <--
>remove??

No. It's the TCP/IP daemon.

>CALL=z:\OS2\CMD.EXE /Q /C z:\MPTN\BIN\MPTSTART.CMD >NUL
>RUN=z:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\NBTCP.EXE <--
>remove??

Yes. It's for NETBIOS over TCPIP.

>RUN=z:\MPTN\BIN\VDOSCTL.EXE

Yes. It's DOS TCP/IP support.

>REM *** 3c905 nic driver ***
>DEVICE=z:\IBMCOM\MACS\EL90X.OS2

>Thanks, it really feels good to have a successful ending.

Now you can point the fellow over on the Possi list in the right
direction. I can't say for sure that you both have the same problem, but
it's definitely the first thing to check out.

BTW, did fixing the TCP/IP stack fix PMDLL?

Regards,

Steven
