Hello Stewart!
 SB> I'm having a real hard time getting a slip or ppp connection to the
 SB> Internet, and got no-one to ask/bounce ideas off. Well, I resorted to
 SB> reinstalling Warp4 from CD onto a new partition without any fixpaks.
 SB> When I boot the original config.sys, no problems. If I sort the
 SB> config.sys with cnfgsort then the boot crashes. I narrowed it down to
 SB> the device AFINET.SYS. I think it's not compatible with IFNDIS.SYS.
 SB> Do these two devices need to be placed in the config.sys in any
 SB> specific order?
My CONFIG.SYS says:
CALL=D:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\NETBIND.EXE
RUN=D:\IBMCOM\LANMSGEX.EXE
SET NLSPATH=D:\MPTN\MSG\NLS\%N;d:\tcpip\msg\enus850\%N;
DEVICE=D:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\SOCKETS.SYS
DEVICE=D:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFOS2.SYS
DEVICE=D:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\AFINET.SYS
DEVICE=D:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\IFNDIS.SYS
RUN=D:\MPTN\BIN\CNTRL.EXE
CALL=D:\OS2\CMD.EXE /Q /C D:\MPTN\BIN\MPTSTART.CMD >NUL
DEVICE=D:\IBMCOM\MACS\NULLNDIS.OS2
SET I18NDIR=D:\IBMI18N
Don't ask me what it all means, though ;-)
Bye,
Jan
