Do you have another token ring card to try?  We've had problems with
certain types of cards, particularly with IBM PCs refusing to connect
either to our AS400 or our Novell network.  Is your PC a Valuepoint P/60 by
any chance.  This machine was almost completely unconnectable for us, but
we've had no problems at all with our new Gateway's with any card.

Hello.

I have a big problem when I try to connect my IBM PC equiped with an
Olicom Token ring card with one of my three AS400 in the Token.

I am using the Netsoft router and I have installed the protocol MS DLC
32 bits and the update file of DLC that I have taken from the Microsoft
WEB.

Well, the Netsoft router is unable to connect  with any AS400.

I get an error like "error in adapter", that seems related with the
Olicom card. But the card works fine, because the PC is in a Novell
network.

My AS400 is V3R7.

Does anybody have any idea???

Thanks very much in advance..

Just because a TR card works with IPX or TCP doesn't mean it will work
with DLC. In my experience, many don't with Win95 & MSDLC-32, INCLUDING
IBM's that flat out don't work at all with Win95!

We found much to out surprise that, having experienced this infuriating
problem with cards known to be functioning, deleting the midrange workspace
entry and recreating it caused things to wirk just fine.  It just wasn't
the kind of thing that we would have typically done on purpose.
