System Messages

IPXNCP-1.00-55: The IPX interface does not support checksums. The IPXNCP.VLM file will load successfully without using checksums. Make sure the installed IPXODI. COM is version 2.01 or later and that it is not bound to a board configured to use the ETHERNET_802.3 frame format.

Explanation: The IPXNCP.VLM file loads without supporting checksums. For checksum to be supported in IPXNCP.VLM, the loaded IPXODI.COM file must support checksums. Either the loaded version of the IPXODI.COM file does not have checksum support or the protocol bound to the IPX™ software does not support checksums.

Action: No action required at this point. However, to avoid receiving this message the next time the IPXNCP.VLM file is loaded, either load the IPXODI.COM file with checksum support enabled or add CHECKSUM=OFF to the NetWare DOS Requester section of the NET.CFG file. See Chapter 2, “NET.CFG Options Reference,” for more information.

IPXNCP-1.00-56: The IPX socket for large internet packets could not be opened. The IPXNCP.VLM file will load successfully without using large internet packets. Configure the IPXODI.COM file for enough sockets in the NET.CFG file or add LARGE INTERNET PACKETS=OFF to the NET.CFG file; then load the IPXNCP.VLM file.

Explanation: This message is only a warning. The NetWar® DOS Requester™ software functions properly without the use of large internet packets. The large internet packet protocol, which is a part of the IPXNCP.VLM module, requires an IPX socket to function properly. The request to open a socket failed, indicating that not enough IPX sockets are available.

Action: If you want large internet packets, make sure that the IPX interface is configured for enough sockets in the NET.CFG file before loading the NetWare DOS Requester. If you do not want large internet packets, add LARGE INTERNET PACKETS=OFF to the NetWare DOS Requester section of the NET.CFG file.See Chapter 2, “NET.CFG Options Reference,” for more information.
