Well,

I've managed to get PNW installed on two PC's using
its usual VLM drivers, one running DR-DOS 6.0, the
other running DR-DOS 7.02+. I'll need to do some work
on optimizing memory, but apart from that, it all seems
to be working fine.

One question however. While I can use the command
'net down' to stop the server, I can't find any way to
start it up again without rebooting. The documentation
doesn't seem to mention anything about this. Does
anyone know if it's possible to restart the server
without the hassle of rebooting?

BTW, one interesting problem I encountered on the
DR-DOS 7.02+ (using the 7.03 kernel and EMM386;-)
PC, a Cyrix 6x86L which had previously run DR-DOS
6.0 quite nicely ... Now if I load EMM386 by itself in
'config.sys', it is quite unstable and locks-up within
a minute or so. If I load HIMEM (again, from 7.03;-)
before EMM386, everything's fine. (Of course, I tried
the usual thing of excluding all the UMB area, but it
made no difference.)

Joe.
