2.10 Using Digi’s NetBIOS to Assign IP Address

2.10.1About the Digi Utilities

Digi distributes a pair of utilities that are for any DOS system with a NetBEUI stack. Systems include Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/ 98, Windows NT, and DOS LAN Manager clients. The two utilities are:

•SHOWPRN.EXE: Finds any FastPort(s) on the network

•NBMON.EXE: Allows users to configure FastPort

These utilities require a NetBEUI stack to be installed on the client machine. If not already done so, install NetBEUI first before using either utility. Copy the utilities to the “local” system from the CD-ROM or by retrieving them from Digi’s ftp sites: FTP.MILAN.COM. Files are located in the following directory:

/pub/fastport/software

•FastPort is available on the network

•NetBEUI stack on is properly configured

1.Open a DOS prompt and enter the directory where the utility is located (e.g. cd \digi_ins\win_95).

2.Run the utility by typing showprn.exe and pressing [return]. The following output appears:
