sda4: commit the Glaze developer hard-drive dump
Un-ignored: the dev drive is the ground truth the restoration and emulator work constantly reference (DPL3/LIBDPL + VRENDER i860 renderer source, BT/RP live+dev game trees, VGL_LABS pod boot, scene/audio content). Kept in-repo for the pod-owner community. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Installing Network Client
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
If you are installing Microsoft Network Client version 3.0 for MS-DOS
|
||||
on a computer that does not have MS-DOS installed, you will get the
|
||||
error "No Drivers Present On This Disk" if you try to use the Windows
|
||||
Driver Library. You must have MS-DOS installed on the computer.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a Windows NT Server floppy disk set and you want to make
|
||||
extra copies of Microsoft Network Client for MS-DOS, note that the
|
||||
installation disk for this client will only fit on a 3.5" floppy disk.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Setup PATH Problem With Microsoft Windows
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
If you have Microsoft Windows installed on your computer before you
|
||||
install Network Client, the Network Client Setup program may incorrectly
|
||||
alter the PATH line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
|
||||
|
||||
The PATH line should include the Windows directory. Check this line after
|
||||
you install Network Client. If the Windows directory was removed from the
|
||||
PATH, add it back in.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. If You Have an 8088 Processor
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
You must use the basic redirector if your computer has an 8088
|
||||
processor. The full redirector is the default, so you must choose
|
||||
the basic redirector when you install.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. Setup Requires 429K Available Memory
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
In order to run Network Client Setup, you must have 429K of
|
||||
available conventional memory.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. Setup is Slow on Some Computers
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
On some computers, particularly those with 8088 processors, Network
|
||||
Client Setup may appear to pause for as long as five minutes.
|
||||
Do not restart your computer.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. Network Client Cannot Be Set Up on DoubleDisk Drive
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
You cannot use Network Client on a Vertisoft Systems DoubleDisk
|
||||
drive. You must set up Network Client on another type of drive.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
7. Windows 3.x Setup Network Choice
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
If you have installed Microsoft Network Client 3.0 and then later
|
||||
install Windows 3.x, the Windows Setup program asks you to choose
|
||||
your network type from a list. "Network Client" does not appear on
|
||||
the list because it is newer than Windows 3.x. Instead, choose
|
||||
"LAN Manager 2.1."
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
8. If COMMAND.COM is Not in Root Directory
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
Network Client will not start if your COMMAND.COM file is not in the
|
||||
root directory of your startup drive, unless you have a SHELL command
|
||||
in your CONFIG.SYS file that specifies the location of COMMAND.COM.
|
||||
For information about the COMMAND and SHELL commands, see your
|
||||
MS-DOS documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
9. Using INTERLNK and INTERSVR
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
Do not use the MS-DOS INTERLNK or INTERSVR commands with Network Client.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
10. Using TSRs with Network Client
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
If you start any terminate-and-stay-resident programs (TSRs) and you are
|
||||
using the basic redirector, you might be unable to unload the basic
|
||||
redirector.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
11. Named Pipes and Enhanced Mode Windows
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
Asynchronous named pipes are not supported on Microsoft Network Client
|
||||
when the client is running under enhanced mode Windows. All other client
|
||||
APIs are supported, including NetBIOS, TCP/IP, and IPX/SPX.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
12. Using Qualitas Maximize or Quarterdeck Optimize
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------
|
||||
In some rare situations, Qualitas(R) Maximize and Quarterdeck(R)
|
||||
Optimize may attempt to load some Network Client commands into the
|
||||
upper memory area. If this causes problems, use Maximize or Optimize in
|
||||
manual mode and do not use it to load Network Client commands into the
|
||||
upper memory area. Network Client automatically loads its commands
|
||||
into the upper memory area, if there is enough space. For information
|
||||
about using manual mode, see your Maximize or Optimize documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
13. Using QEMM Lastdrive
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
If you add drive letters by using QEMM(R) Lastdrive, and then use
|
||||
Network Client to connect to one of them, the connection will be
|
||||
successful but no information about the shared resources on it will be
|
||||
displayed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
14. Making the Pop-up Interface Visible on a Monochrome Monitor
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
To make the Network Client pop-up interface appear in monochrome
|
||||
mode, type MODE MONO at the MS-DOS command prompt before you display
|
||||
the pop-up interface, or include the MODE MONO command in your
|
||||
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
15. Enabling Validated Logons to Windows NT Server and LAN Manager
|
||||
Domains
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
You must run the Network Client full redirector to have your
|
||||
user name and password validated by a Microsoft Windows NT Server
|
||||
or LAN Manager server.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
16. Network Settings in SYSTEM.INI
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
The [Network] section of your SYSTEM.INI file contains the following
|
||||
settings:
|
||||
|
||||
filesharing= Does not apply to Network Client.
|
||||
|
||||
printsharing= Does not apply to Network Client.
|
||||
|
||||
autologon= Determines whether Network Client will automatically
|
||||
prompt you for logon when it starts.
|
||||
|
||||
computername= The name of your computer.
|
||||
|
||||
lanroot= The directory in which you installed Network Client.
|
||||
|
||||
username= The username used by default at logon.
|
||||
|
||||
workgroup= The workgroup name. Note that this may be different
|
||||
from the "logondomain" setting.
|
||||
|
||||
reconnect= Determines whether Network Client restores previous
|
||||
connections when it starts.
|
||||
|
||||
dospophotkey= Determines the key you press (with CTRL+ALT) to start
|
||||
the pop-up interface. The default is N, meaning that you
|
||||
press CTRL+ALT+N.
|
||||
|
||||
lmlogon= Determines whether Network Client prompts you for a
|
||||
domain logon when you log on. Set this to 1 if you need
|
||||
to log on to a Windows NT Server or LAN Manager domain.
|
||||
|
||||
logondomain= The name of the Windows NT Server or LAN Manager
|
||||
domain.
|
||||
|
||||
preferredredir= The redirector that starts by default when you
|
||||
type the NET START command.
|
||||
|
||||
autostart= If you choose a network adapter during setup, and specify
|
||||
the startup option Run Network Client Logon, autostart
|
||||
determines which redirector you are using. If you select
|
||||
No Network Adapter from the adapter list, or Do Not Run
|
||||
Network Client from the startup options, autostart has
|
||||
no value, but the NET START command still appears in
|
||||
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
|
||||
|
||||
maxconnections= Does not apply to Network Client.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
17. NWLink Supports IPX Only
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
The NWLink protocol shipped with Microsoft Network Client supports
|
||||
only IPX. SPX is not supported.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
18. Installing the MS-DLC Protocol
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
If you install the MS-DLC protocol, you must edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file
|
||||
to add "/dynamic" to the NET INITIALIZE line. The line should be:
|
||||
|
||||
net initialize /dynamic
|
||||
|
||||
If one does not already exist, add a NETBIND line after all lines in
|
||||
AUTOEXEC.BAT that load network drivers. The line should simply be:
|
||||
|
||||
netbind
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
19. Installing Remote Access Service 1.1a
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
To use RAS, you must use the Network Client full redirector.
|
||||
|
||||
After creating the RAS 1.1a disks, run the Network Client Setup
|
||||
program. Do not use the setup program provided with RAS 1.1a to
|
||||
configure your network settings.
|
||||
|
||||
1. In the Network Client directory, run SETUP.EXE.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Choose Change Network Settings, and then select Add Adapter.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Select Microsoft Remote Network Access Driver from the list of
|
||||
adapters, and then choose The Listed Options Are Correct.
|
||||
|
||||
4. After running Setup, run the RASCOPY.BAT batch file. It will prompt
|
||||
you for the Remote Access Service disk 1 and disk 2.
|
||||
|
||||
To disable remote access, remove Microsoft Remote Network Access Driver
|
||||
from the list of adapters. To re-enable it, follow steps 1 through 3.
|
||||
|
||||
When the Remote Access files are installed, a RAS directory is created
|
||||
in your Network Client directory. Use the SETUP.EXE program in this
|
||||
directory only to configure your modem, not to configure network
|
||||
settings. In particular, do not select Enable Remote Access or Remove
|
||||
Remote Access when running SETUP.EXE from the RAS directory.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
20. Browsing the Network Requires a Windows for Workgroups or
|
||||
Windows NT Computer on the Network
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Network Client does not provide a browse master. In order for you to
|
||||
browse the network, a browse master must be present. Therefore,
|
||||
a computer running Windows for Workgroups or Windows NT must be on the
|
||||
network and belong to the same workgroup as the computer running
|
||||
Network Client. See the Windows for Workgroups 3.11 Resource Kit for
|
||||
information on making the Windows for Workgroups machine a browse
|
||||
master.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this does not prevent you from connecting to a shared
|
||||
resource. You will just need to know the name of the server and share
|
||||
beforehand in order to connect to it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
21. IPCONFIG.EXE and Controlling DHCP Leases
|
||||
--------------------------------------------
|
||||
The IPCONFIG.EXE utility provides DHCP configuration information.
|
||||
The version of IPCONFIG.EXE provided with the Microsoft Network Client
|
||||
does not support command-line switches for controlling DHCP
|
||||
address leases; you must use the DHCP Administration Utility
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Specifically, the Network Client IPCONFIG.EXE utility does not support
|
||||
the following switches, which are available in the IPCONFIG.EXE utilities
|
||||
for Windows for Workgroups and for Windows NT:
|
||||
|
||||
IPCONFIG /release
|
||||
IPCONFIG /renew
|
||||
IPCONFIG /?
|
||||
IPCONFIG /all
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
22. Specifying WINS Servers
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
If your MS-DOS client uses DHCP (the default setting for MS-DOS TCP/IP),
|
||||
it will automatically receive the address for the WINS server. If you
|
||||
want to statically configure your WINS server IP address, you must edit
|
||||
the client's PROTOCOL.INI file and add the IP address into the [TCPIP]
|
||||
section.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you have 2 WINS servers available, add them into the
|
||||
[TCPIP] section as shown in the example below. Note that there are no
|
||||
dots (.) in the IP addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
[TCPIP]
|
||||
WINS_SERVER0 = 11 101 13 53
|
||||
WINS_SERVER1 = 11 101 12 198
|
||||
|
||||
Name queries will be sent to the WINS servers in the order in which they
|
||||
appear in the .INI file. The IPCONFIG command may show a different order
|
||||
of WINS servers (or even different WINS servers altogether) -- these
|
||||
are the WINS server names sent by DHCP, and the PROTOCOL.INI settings
|
||||
override them.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
23. Differences in MS-DOS TCP/IP
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
There is a difference in functionality available in TCP/IP for
|
||||
Windows for Workgroups, and Windows NT Workstation and Server, versus
|
||||
MS-DOS TCP/IP. Specifically, an MS-DOS TCP/IP client does not:
|
||||
|
||||
support DNS resolution using WINS
|
||||
support WINS resolution using DNS
|
||||
register its name with the WINS database; it does queries only
|
||||
act as a WINS proxy node
|
||||
have multihomed support
|
||||
support IGMP
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
24. Logging On With TCP/IP Across a Router
|
||||
------------------------------------------
|
||||
If the domain controller is across a router from the Network Client
|
||||
computer, you must add a line to the client's LMHOSTS file for logons
|
||||
to be validated. The line is of the following form:
|
||||
|
||||
www.xxx.yyy.zzz SRV_NAME #DOM:DOM_NAME
|
||||
|
||||
where
|
||||
www.xxx.yyy.zzz is the IP address of the domain controller
|
||||
SRV_NAME is the NetBIOS name of the domain controller
|
||||
DOM_NAME is the name of the domain
|
||||
|
||||
You must also ensure that the domain controller can contact the client,
|
||||
using one of the following methods:
|
||||
|
||||
Enter the client's IP address and name in the domain controller's
|
||||
LMHOSTS file.
|
||||
|
||||
Register the client with a WINS server that is accessible by
|
||||
the domain controller. (Network Client computers do not
|
||||
automatically register with WINS servers; they only query the
|
||||
WINS servers.)
|
||||
|
||||
Use the LAN Manager 2.1a (and higher) "TCP/IP Extensions for
|
||||
LAN Manager," a hub/node service that runs on LAN Manager
|
||||
servers to integrate domains across routers.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
25. Overview of Windows Sockets
|
||||
-------------------------------
|
||||
Microsoft TCP/IP includes support for Windows Sockets on Microsoft Windows
|
||||
and Workgroups for Windows workstations. A socket provides an end point to
|
||||
a connection; two sockets form a complete path. A socket works as a
|
||||
bi-directional pipe for incoming and outgoing data. The Windows Sockets API
|
||||
is a networking API tailored for use by programmers using the Microsoft
|
||||
Windows operating system. Windows Sockets is a public specification based
|
||||
on Berkeley UNIX sockets and aims to:
|
||||
|
||||
* Provide a familiar networking API to programmers using Windows or UNIX.
|
||||
* Offer binary compatibility between heterogeneous Windows-based TCP/IP
|
||||
stack and utilities vendors.
|
||||
* Support both connection-oriented and connectionless protocols.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running an application that uses Windows Sockets, be sure to
|
||||
enable Windows Sockets when you configure Microsoft TCP/IP. If you are
|
||||
unsure whether any of your applications use Windows Sockets, refer to the
|
||||
documentation included with that vendor's application.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
26. Setting DNR and Sockets Settings
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
If you specify the MS TCP/IP protocol during setup, you will now see an
|
||||
additional dialog box after you have used the Advanced button in the
|
||||
MS-TCP/IP Configuration dialog box. This new dialog box, DNR and Sockets
|
||||
Settings, is used only if your MS TCP/IP network has a domain name service
|
||||
(DNS) server. If your network has a DNS and you choose to configure the
|
||||
Domain Name Resolver (DNR) parameters, the DNR module will be loaded with
|
||||
your sockets and Telnet applications to resolve hostname-to-IP address
|
||||
mappings. This allows you to specify remote computers by computername
|
||||
without knowing specific IP addresses. If you use this dialog box, these
|
||||
are the values you will need to supply:
|
||||
|
||||
Username
|
||||
Your username.
|
||||
|
||||
Hostname
|
||||
The computername your workstation will report when using the remote
|
||||
services. The default is your LAN Manager computername.
|
||||
|
||||
Primary Nameserver IP Address
|
||||
The IP address of the DNS server you want the DNR to consult first when
|
||||
resolving computername-to-IP address mappings.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use DHCP, the DHCP server typically provides a DNS server
|
||||
address automatically; you can leave this entry blank. If you do
|
||||
specify an address here, it overrides the address provided by DHCP.
|
||||
|
||||
Secondary Nameserver IP Address
|
||||
The IP address of the DNS server you want the DNR to consult when
|
||||
resolving computername-to-IP address mappings if the request to the
|
||||
primary nameserver fails.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use DHCP, the DHCP server typically provides a DNS server
|
||||
address automatically; you can leave this entry blank. If you do
|
||||
specify an address here, it overrides the address provided by DHCP.
|
||||
|
||||
Domain Name Suffix
|
||||
The suffix appended to any computername for DNS processing. Your network
|
||||
administrator can tell you what to enter here.
|
||||
|
||||
Enable Windows Sockets
|
||||
Mark this checkbox if you want Sockets to be invoked from the
|
||||
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
|
||||
|
||||
Number of Sockets
|
||||
The maximum number of sockets that can be made available to applications
|
||||
at any one time. The range is 1 to 22 sockets.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Some applications may use more than one socket to provide a service.
|
||||
Consider this when trying to maximize available memory. The total
|
||||
number of sockets and NetBIOS sessions combined must not exceed 22.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
