You are trying too many different solutions at once (at least this is
what I understand from your description), and they conflict with one
another.

You should either:

    (a) unzip the files using a DOS unzip program (get PKUNZIP from
    SimTel), and NOT install the lfn0106.zip LFN driver for NT;
or
    (b) unzip the files using a Windows unzip program, such as WinZip,
    install lfn0106.zip, and set LFN=y.

But do not do both of the above!

Whatever you do, chdir to the D:\DJGPP\LANG\CXX directory after
unzipping the files, and type "dir streambuf.h /x".  The /x switch
causes DIR to print both the long file name and its short 8+3 alias.
If you DO install lfn0106.zip, you need to make sure the *long* file
name is "streambuf.h" (the short one is not important in this case).
If you do NOT install lfn0106.zip, you need to make sure that the
*short* 8+3 file name is "STREAMBU.H" (note the upper case and that
the letter F before the dot is gone!); the long name is not important.
