thanks for the info.

now i was able to make it call the handler. 
another question. i am currently working on a network redirector
project. so i need to hook int 2f. but now i have a problem. i read on
this group that DJGPP has no provision for interrupt chaining in real
mode. how can i work things out.

i tried to use _go32_dpmi_simulate_fcall_iret() but it did not work.

i will greatly appreciate any help.

thanks.

<code excerpt>

_go32_dpmi_seginfo old_vector;

void int2f(_go32_dpmi_registers* r)
{
  printf("INT 2F Invoked r->h.ah = %X\r\n", r->h.ah);

  if (r->h.ah != 0x11)
  {
    printf("Do Control\r\n", r->h.ah);
    //other processing here    return;
  }

  r->x.ss = NULL;
  r->x.sp = NULL;
  r->x.flags = NULL;
  
  r->x.cs = old_vector.rm_segment;
  r->x.ip = old_vector.rm_offset;
  _go32_dpmi_simulate_fcall_iret(r);
}

 int main(int argc, char* argv[])
 {
   __dpmi_regs r;
   _go32_dpmi_seginfo info;
   
   _go32_dpmi_get_real_mode_interrupt_vector(0x2f, &old_vector);
   info.pm_offset = (unsigned long)int2f;
   _go32_dpmi_allocate_real_mode_callback_iret(&info, &g_r);
   _go32_dpmi_set_real_mode_interrupt_vector(0x2f, &info);

   r.x.ax = 0x252F;
   r.x.ds = info.rm_segment;
   r.x.dx = info.rm_offset;
   __dpmi_int(0x21, &r);


   _write(2,"Installing TSR\r\n",16);
   //__djgpp_exception_toggle(); 	// Only needed if exceptions linked

   r.x.ax = 0x3100;
   r.x.dx = 256 / 16;		// paragraphs
   __dpmi_int(0x21, &r);

   printf("Hey\n");

   _go32_dpmi_set_real_mode_interrupt_vector(0x2f, &old_vector);
   _go32_dpmi_free_real_mode_callback(&info);
