Caldera Preview II IPX config

Caldera Preview II IPX config

Post by R.A. Henders » Thu, 07 Dec 1995 04:00:00



I'm running the Caldera Desktop Preview II. Everything is ok
except I started getting error messages logged from the IPX
side of the box.

I've seen this before, I think some other device on the network
has the same address as I do. I can't remember exactly what it
is I'm supposed to change in the /etc/sysconfig/ipx file to
prevent this.

Caldera doesn't exactly document the ipx config files, in fact
they don't document them at all |-\.  Come on caldera, we know
you're out there.

1. Getting installed Caldera Network Desktop Preview II with a 3c589B

Hello everybody,

I have got a Lion6500- Notebook and I am using a 3c589B-PCMCIA-card.
I want to install the Caldera Network Desktop via NFS.
So I have to use the Card. The default values are Irq 10 and I/O-Port
280.
But the linux is using port 0x2e0 and irq 3.
So when I want to Mount a NFS directory, this message appears:

mount clntupd_create: RPC:Port mapper failure RPC: Timed out

I have tried to give linux the irq and the port-adress as
boot-parameters:

linux ether=10,280 or
linux ether=10,0x280h

but it didn't get it.

Could anybody help???

Thanks

Jacques
