NE1000.COM and NE2000.COM
NE1000.COM is a driver for ETHERNET NE1000 network adapters,
NE2000.COM is a driver for ETHERNET NE2000 network adapters.
When setting NETBIOS parameters, LotLAN manager inquires the following
parameters: port and IRQ-number. These parameters should correspond to
switches' positions on the network adapter. You can also get this
information by running the NET_ADDR.exe program.
You can also specify the needed parameters in the command line.
Syntax: NE1000.COM [PORT=XXX] [IRQ=XX] [TIMEOUT=XXX] [NCB=XXX]
[SESSIONS=XX] [ADAPTERS=X]
or
NE2000.COM [PORT=XXX] [IRQ=XX] [TIMEOUT=XXX] [NCB=XXX]
[SESSIONS=XX] [ADAPTERS=X]
Parameters:
PORT - Port number (300H by default). Usually the following values
are used: 260, 280, 2A0, 2C0, 2D0, 300, 320, 340, 360.
IRQ - interrupt number (3 by default). Base port and interrupt
numbers should correspond to switch positions at the network
adapter.
NCB - this parameter sets maximum number of Network Control Blocks
(NCB). Each NCB corresponds to NETBIOS driver command to be
executed. For normal operation the server usually needs (N+4)
NCB (N - number of work stations using its resources). But if
you are also running some other applications which need NETBIOS
driver, this may prove insufficient. In such a case it would be
necessary to increase NCB number. By default, NCB=32.
SESSIONS - this parameter sets maximum number of sessions. The server
usually needs N sessions (N - number of work stations using its
resources). By default, SESSIONS=16.
ADAPTERS - this parameter determines the number of NETBIOS driver
adapters. The adapter number is, in fact, the driver's ordinal
number. In other words, when using the second network card you
should start the second NETBIOS driver with ADAPTERS=1
parameter. By default, ADAPTERS=0.
TIMEOUT - this parameter sets internal timeout by the second.
By default, TIMEOUT=4.
