Re: ISeries Expert near Austin?

Paul,
You've got 2 possible ways of getting Ethernet on that machine:
Option 1:
Remove the C06 2793 card (it's a modem, was used for calling IBM back in
the day)
Put a 2849 on C02 (MFIOP supports max 4 IOA cards, thats why we take the
2793 out)
Option 2:
Put a 2844 on C12 and a 5701 on C10.

Best Regards

I will gladly take one of whichever kind will work in the machine. If any
of those are a gig copper card, I would be glad to purchase one from you
sir. :)

For that machine you can use:
2838 (old 10/100 card)
2849 (newer 10/100 card)
5701 (Gigabit card)
Depending on the occupied slots you might need a 2843/2844 IOP card.
If you can list what card is in what slot i can verify the config.
The above mentioned cards should be no more than 40/50 bucks (more for
the
gigabit one) so i believe it's a good idea to get one.

Best Regards,

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
