[HECnet] NetWare and DECnet

It had support for ethernet too: 10 Mb/s media only IIRC. DECnet got started and replaced the physical address of the NIC with the AA-00-04-00-xx-xx DECnet address The user had no control over the latter. That was introduced later when Windows 2000 was released. -----Original Message----- From: Cory Smelosky <b4 at gewt.net> Sender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2013 20:13:19 To: <hecnet at Update.UU.SE> Reply-To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Subject: Re: [HECnet] NetWare and DECnet On 4 Jan 2013, at 20:10, hvlems at zonnet.nl wrote: IIRC DECnet for Netware was a separately sold item of the Pathworks product suite. It was DECnet for pc's running Netware, as basic Pathworks was DECnet for PC-DOS and MS-DOS pc's or DECnet for the Macintosh. It brought DECnet connectivity to PC's running Netware; it had support for 4 and 16 Mb/s tokenring adapters. Tokenring puts bits in a different order on the wire so AA-00 addresses became 55-00 addresses. Hans Ahhh. Did it support non-tokenring as well? Was it a loadable module a user could define manually as a binding on the NIC? ------Origineel bericht------ Van: Cory Smelosky Afzender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Aan: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Beantwoorden: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Onderwerp: [HECnet] NetWare and DECnet Verzonden: 5 januari 2013 01:49 Hi! As I've already gotten a bunch of my NT systems on HECnet, I thought i'd try a new beast: old NetWare.
