I would contact Larry Bolhuis and ask if he has one of the real Ethernet
cards. I don't recall the part number.

Subject: Re: ISeries Expert near Austin?
Just touching back on this subject with the group - thanks to some able
assistance in the local area, I was able to successfully load and license
the iSeries 820 we were able to acquire to version 5.4. All that works
nicely - except - there was no ethernet card in the machine. I thought that
there was, but that tuned out to the the console port. How embarrassing..
I was able to configure up an old PC with an IBM 5250 Express PCI card
which
comes with TCP/IP over twin axial drivers, and that works okay to a degree.
I seem to have managed to configure it so that only one TCP Session at a
time can happen. It can happen from anywhere on the network, but only one
session makes it kinda rough. The docs for the card hint at multi-session
capability, but I have no ideal if that means SNA sessions only, or if the
TCP/IP stack can handle multiple requests. I would hope the latter, but
greatly
Any input on this would be greatly appreciated.
Network looks like this:
iSeries [192.168.20.1] <---> WinNT 4 [192.168.20.4]
[192.168.10.40] <<------->> Internal network
The NT machines routes between the 192.168.10.X network and the rest of the
world.
Yours,
-Paul
