Peter Karrer Announces SLIP for WFW

-[NEW 03-22-95) -

-Hello, -

-I've discovered a way to run WfW's TCP/IP-32 over a SLIP packet driver. This -allows WfW users to do Windows networking over dialup lines just like it is -possible with NT and the Windows 95 beta! -

-For instance, you can mount Microsoft's FTP server as a network drive in File -Manager or connect to an MS Mail post office over the Internet. Of course, -the usual Internet stuff works as well. Another interesting site is -WINSERVE.001; check out www.winserve.com. -

-This method should work with any class 1 (Ethernet II) packet driver. However, -I'm not in a position to try anything else than SLIPPER/CSLIPPER. -

Files you need:

-WFWT32.EXE: ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/msclient/wfw/wfwt32.exe -

- Microsoft's free TCP/IP for WfW. It's a self-extracting archive which - should be executed in an empty directory. -

-SLIPPER.EXE: ftp://biocserver.bioc.cwru.edu/pub/dos/slipper/slippr15.zip -

- Peter Tattam's SLIP packet driver. CSLIPPER.EXE is a variant which supports - VJ header compression. -

-PDETHER.EXE: ftp://sjf-lwp.idz.sjf.novell.com/odi/pdether/pde105.zip -

- Don Provan's ODI-over-Packet Driver shim. This *must* be version 1.05 (or - above). -

-LSL.COM: -

- Novell's LAN Support Layer. If you're an owner of Windows 3.10, you'll - have it on one of your install disks. Use "expand a:lsl.co_ lsl.com" to - expand it. Microsoft has stopped bundling LSL.COM with WfW 3.11, though. - The newest version of LSL.COM can be downloaded as part of - ftp://ftp.novell.com/pub/netware/nwos/dosclnt12/vlms/vlmup2.exe. - However, it's not clear if this one may be legally used outside Netware - environments. -

-NET.CFG: -

- A configuration file for LSL and PDETHER. It should contain the following - text: -

-Link Support
-        Buffers 8 1600
-Link Driver PDETHER
-        Int 60
-        Frame Ethernet_II
-        Protocol IP   800  Ethernet_II
-        Protocol ARP  806  Ethernet_II
-        Protocol RARP 8035 Ethernet_II
-

-DISCOMX.COM: -

- A little hack of mine to disable the COM port used by the SLIP packet driver. - Usage is e.g. "discomx 2" to disable COM2. This should be run before - starting WfW, otherwise you'll get "device conflict" messages. Here it is: -

-begin 644 discomx.com
-F,=N)V8H.@`"P(+^!`/.N3XH="=MT!DN`XP/1XS')!R:)CP`$S2``
-`
-end
-

- (Save this text to disk as filename, then run "uudecode filename". - uudecode can be found, for instance, at - ftp://ftp.switch.ch/mirror/simtel/msdos/starter/uudecode.com ) -

-LMHOSTS: -

- An optional file which should be stored in your Windows subdirectory. It is - used to map NetBIOS computer names to IP addresses. Example: -

-198.105.232.1   ftp             #PRE  # ftp.microsoft.com
-204.118.34.11   winserve.001    #PRE  # Winserve
-

How to install it:

Put the files mentioned above into a directory, e.g. C:\SLIP. -
-
Put the following lines into AUTOEXEC.BAT: -
```
-  cd \slip
-  slipper com1 vec=60 baud=57600 ether	(may vary with your modem setup)
-  lsl
-  pdether
-  discomx 1				(must correspond to SLIPPER's COM port)
-
```
- (If you use another vec= setting, you must update that in NET.CFG as well.) - Use CSLIPPER instead of SLIPPER if your SLIP provider supports VJC. -
-
Start WfW. -
- Under Windows Setup, choose "Change Network Settings". -
- Select "Install Microsoft Windows Network". -
- In "Drivers...", choose "Add Adapter" - and install the "IPXODI Support driver (Ethernet) [ODI/NDIS3]". -
- In "Add Protocols...", select "Unlisted or Updated Protocol". When asked for a - driver disk, enter the directory where you expanded WFWT32.EXE. -
- Configure TCP/IP (IP address, enable LMHOSTS lookup, try 204.118.34.11 as primary - WINS server). Remove all other protocols (NetBEUI, IPX/SPX). -
-
-
Windows will probably update the first lines of AUTOEXEC.BAT with -
-
```
-  c:\windows\net start
-  c:\windows\odihlp.exe.
-
```
- The "odihlp" line must be moved behind the "pdether" line. -
-
Windows will also update NET.CFG with some "Frame" lines. These must - be removed (except "Frame Ethernet_II"). -
-
Somehow, you will have to dial in to your SLIP provider. I do it manually - before slipper (or cslipper) gets loaded, using a DOS-based terminal program. - But there are some automatic dialers around. I've seen recommendations for - ftp://mvmpc9.ciw.uni-karlsruhe.de/x-slip/slip_it.exe. -
-
To connect to Microsoft's FTP server (or Winserve) go into File Manager, - choose "Connect Network drive" and enter "\\ftp" or "\\winserve.001" into - the "Path:" field. -

How it works:

-Microsoft's TCP/IP-32 requires an NDIS3 interface. NDIS is Microsoft's way -to interface with a network. -

-WfW also contains an NDIS3-over-ODI "shim", whose real mode component is -ODIHLP.EXE. ODI is Novell's way to interface with a network. -

-SLIPPER is a Packet Driver (PD) for use over serial lines. PDs are everybody -else's way to interface with a network. SLIPPER's "ether" option makes it -look like an Ethernet PD to applications using it. -

-A "shim" is a program which simulates a network application programming -interface on top of another. -

-There is no NDIS SLIP driver which would work with WfW. -

-There is no NDIS-over-PD shim. -

-However, there's an ODI-over-PD shim (PDETHER) and an NDIS-over-ODI shim -(ODIHLP etc.) -

-OK, so let's do NDIS-over-ODI-over-PD! -

-This should have worked all the time; however, a non-feature in PDETHER -versions < 1.05 has prevented the method from functioning until now. -
