Hi, I've found in my garbagebin an old computer. I want to reinstall the machine with MS-Dos 6.22 and WFW3.11. I've installed DOS and everything works (Soundcard, CD-Rom etc) The only thing I can't get to work is the Networkcard :(. I've tried everything. Reinstalling, other cards etc. But everytime its installed DOS starts the nic, can see the MAC adress etc but it hangs on "Initializing TCP/IP via DHCP....." Well i thought maybe a Static IP? So i've did that according to my local network. When the computer boots it goes on now but i cannot ping etc. Other computers are not found :(. Maybe Hardware problem? I've created a Standard Ghost Bootdisk with TCP/IP support for creating an image of my freshly installed DOS. Setted the Multicast Server and works. So everything in the computer is not broken. I can send and receive over the network only not in Dos 6.22 with MS-Lanmanager 3.0 I hope someone can help me! Greetings Paul p.s. Sorry for my Crappy English. Tnx

MS-LAN MANAGER only went to version 2.0, did you mean MS-NETWORK CLIENT 3 ? http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/dosclien.htm WfW is network enabled so really no need to use MS-DOS Networking. http://83.67.55.228/links2.htm

Oh sorry :) Yes i'm using MS-Network Client 3, So what u say is when i install Wfw 3.11 i automaticly can connect to my Windows XP shares etc?

If this computer and NIC work with other OS's installed on it...? Can you ping with the other OS's (pings not blocked are they?) Create a shared resource on another computer on the network. Sometimes MSClient will not automatically see the share, you have to type it in manually. Rule #1 Good computers don't go down. Rule #2 There is no such thing as a good computer.

YES! WfW 3.11 has full networking capability: http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/wfw311.htm it is also best to download the updated TCP32B tcp/ip stack and IE5 16bit version.
