Hard to say. My notes may refer to an old problem which is now no longer
applicable. The order I suggested will not cause problems.

So, that's not the problem. :-(

I realize that.

I was wondering about that. Try changing the hostname of the machine.
Use

SET HOST=peterskye

in config.sys.

I'm still a bit confused by this. I've never seen a lantran.log that does
show a MAC address. However, I've always been working on boxes that had
NetBIOS installed. That may be the reason. Everything else says the
driver is loaded.

Just a secondary indication that the driver is loading. Everything else
says it is.

>Nope. (I used EPM for a "quick look for text".) This particular driver

This is normal. The keywords would all be in protocol.ini.

I don't expect to need NetBIOS forever. It's just a testing tool, in this
case, because I know what it should look like.

Yes, that would be good. You could also try using the generic NE2000
driver supplied with Warp.

I'll respond more in the IPTRACE message.
