Re: ops console v5r1 new install failing

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob - are you saying C07 is where you left the card? Dwayne in prev post
said move it
to C06. I'm on Win98 and wondering if I should go with lan option instead of
hard cable.
Ethernet card for lan option currently in C06.
