Howdy All.

I'm having a hardware issue with SCO (my version is 3.2v4.2).

I am trying to add memory to the computer running this OS (a DEC Prioris
series system). Once the memory is installed, am am able to boot
normally, but have NO remote access to the system (no ping, no telnet,
no rlogin etc.). Ifconfig says the interface is up, and I CAN ping the
loopback address. If I remove the memory, the interface behaves just
fine. I'd really appreiciate it if someone could shed some light on
this, as I have software which requires the additional memory. Thanks
very much.

Simon

Your network card is probably using some memory space which overlaps
with the added memory. So: tell us what network card (brand and model);
what driver; show us the driver's initialization string ("%cardname ..."
at boot time); and tell us how much memory you had before and after the
upgrade.
