Symptom(s):
- An "Unable to find PROTMAN.DOS" error appears at bootup
- Error: "Unable to find PROTMAN.DOS"
Cause: Wrong driver
Solution: Only a Packet Driver is needed to run TCP/IP protocol with PCTCP software. Correct the problem as follows:
1) During PCTCP v3.0 setup, select the NDIS 2 / Other Packet Driver option. The PCTCP PROTOCOL.INI is formed with all default sections.
2) In the CONFIG.SYS file, remove the following PCTCP lines added during the installation:
- PROTMAN.DOS - CXCFG.EXE - XPSNDIS.EXE - the line with the file extension .GUP
3) Then make sure that the following lines appear in each of the specified files:
CONFIG.SYS DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D200-D3FF
AUTOEXEC.BAT C:\PCTCP\XPSPD.COM SET PCTCP=C:\PCTCP\PCTCP.INI C:\PCTCP\ETHDRV.EXE
PROTOCOL.INI (in the C:\PCTCP directory) [pctcp general] time-zone = EST time-zone-offset = 300 etc-dir = c:\pctcp host-name = charmed domain =
[pctcp kernel] interface = ifcust 0 mtu-discovery = yes multicast = no pktdrv-loopback = no router-discovery = no serial-number = xxxx-xxxx-xxxx authentication-key = xxxx-xxxx-xxxx kernel-does-dns = yes host-table = c:\pctcp\hosts
[pctcp ifcust 0] ip-address = xxx.xxx.xxx ;(individual IP Address) subnet-mask = 255.255.0.0 ;(appropriate mask for ; your network) router = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ;(router IP Address) interface-type = PKTDRV ;(notice PKTDRV syntax) frame-type = DIX-Ethernet
[pctcp netbios] adapter-number = 0 cache-elements = 10 loadhigh = yes names = 16 mcbs = 20 sessions = 10
[pctcp addresses] domain-name-server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ;(IP Address for DNS)
[pctcp bootp]
[pctcp time] dst-begins = 97 dst-ends = 305
[pctcp vpctcp] MinimumCopySpace = 12 HiTSRFenceSegment = A000h
[PKTDRV] ;(same syntax as interface type line) DriverName=PKTDRV$ INTVEC=0x60 CHAINVEC=0x62 BINDINGS=XIRMAC
[XIRMAC] DriverName=XIRCOM$ ;IOADDRESS=0x320 ;INT=5 ;MEM=0xD2000 ;DOMAIN=
NOTE: If the driver does not load at the default resources, remove the semi-colons from the XIRMAC section above and change the resources to free (unused) ones so the driver can load.
