NET.CFG Options Reference

Protocol IPX Option

IPX now uses interrupt 64h to maintain compatibility with earlier versions of NetWare software.

If an application’s documentation requests interrupt 64h, or if you have an application that works with earlier versions of NetWare but hangs with NetWare 3.1, set the value for this parameter to “off.”

Syntax

int64 [on off]

 

 

Default

on

 

 

Example

To allow an application use interrupt 64h, you would place

 

the following lines in your NET.CFG file:

 

protocol ipx

 

int64 off

 

 

INT7A [on off]

Allows applications to use interrupt 7Ah to access IPX services.

IPX now uses interrupt 7Ah to maintain compatibility with NetWare 2.0a.

If an application’s documentation requests interrupt 7Ah, or if an application works on earlier versions of NetWare software but hangs with NetWare 3.1, set the value for this parameter to “off.”

Syntax

int7a [on off]

 

 

Default

on

 

 

Example

To allow an application to use interrupt 7Ah, you would

 

place the following lines in your NET.CFG file:
