Minor correction: depending on what order you installed things, the
resolv file may be in \MPTN\ETC.  From a command line (OS/2) type:
"echo %etc%" and use the path returned - or check what CONFIG.SYS sets
the ETC env. variable to and use that path in the autoexec.bat.  Also,
Warp Connect and Warp 4 use file name resolv2.
