I had gotten Arachne working nicely from DESQview/X a few months ago until I lost the directory and backups. I'd not yet put it back, because I recall needing something other than DOSPPD. I was LSPPD and it was using CHAP. Tks Joe. I CHAP login with PC/TCP's Windows dialer and VXD stack because it's the default and is reliable. I use terminal prompt login with Trumpet's DLL stack in Windows 3.1 Standard mode, because it's faster with the script right. I also use terminal prompt login with PC/TCP's TSR stack for a smaller 1st Meg memory footprint: Region Area Size Status 1 B7AD - B7B2 0.1K Used (PPP16550) 1 B7B3 - B7C3 0.2K Used (PPPDRV) 2 E760 - E9D0 9.7K Used (PPP16550) Terminal Prompt 10K Used (PPP16550) if PAP 19K Used (PPP16550) if PAP & CHAP 2 E9D1 - EA7C 2.6K Used (PPPDRV) 2 EA7D - F148 27K Used (PPPDRV) Leonard Erickson writes: > I'd love to find one that would co-exist with my > Netware IPX drivers on an Intel EtherExpress 16 > card. Also because of the smaller 1st Meg footprint, I likewise use the IPX transport layer only for my LAN. DV/X completes the network with TCP/IP(X?), so I have no network outside DV/X. 2 E32C - E464 4.8K Used (LSL) 2 E465 - E581 4.4K Used (E200P) 2 E582 - E75F 7.4K Used (IPXODI) PC/TCP shows the above stack being completed by: c:\pctcp\ODIPKT.com c:\nwclient\VLM.exe c:\pctcp\ETHDRV.exe to add TCP/IP capabilities, with ODIPKT being the shim at the threshold of my undestanding. -- Gary Welles
