DRIVERS AND SHIMS
Recommendation
Crynwr drivers free
Support Contact Crynwr for info
The Crynwr drivers, formerly known as the Clarkson University
CUTCP drivers, are created by Russ Nelson of Crynwr Software,
which sells packet and other driver support. The Crynwr
drivers support many Ethernet adapter boards, including
those from 3COM, Telesystems, AT&T, Digital, Mitel, HP,
BICC, NCR, Novell, Interlan, MICOM, Racal/Interlan, NTI,
Tiara, Ungermann-Bass, and Western Digital.
The Packet Driver Specification v1.09 is available via:
file://vax.ftp.com/pub/packet-d.ascii,
file://vax.ftp.com/pub/ppacket-d.mss
PC-NFS drivers available in
file://ftp.sun.soe.clarkson.edu/pub/packet-drivers/compat.zip
(requires Sun's PC-NFS).
The drivers, currently in release 11 are available at:

file://oak.oakland.edu/pub/msdos/pktdrvr/pktd11a.zip (sources)

*Downright speculation
Drivers for Western Digital Ethernet Boards free
Available as:
file://ftp.cdrom.com/.2/SimTel/msdos/lan/wdpost.zip
Recommendation
NDIS Drivers free
Libraries of free NDIS drivers for DOS and OS/2 are
available at FTP Software, Inc. at
file://vax.ftp.com/ndis/ndis.txt. Another source of
NDIS drivers is the Windows for Workgroups package.
New drivers are available for download from Microsoft
Product Support Services, available at (206)936-MSDL,
or on CompuServe or GEnie. The Windows Driver LIbrary (WDL),
which includes printer, display and network drivers is also
available on disk from Microsoft by calling (800)426-9400.
The NDIS spec is available as:
file://vax.ftp.com/pub/ndis-mac.v101.txt,
file://vax.ftp.com/pub/ndis-mac.v201.txt
Suggestion
SLIPPER v1.3 Free
CSLIPPER Free
SLIPPER and CSLIPPER get rave reviews for being less
obtrusive than some other SLIP/CSLIP drivers so that
the machine loses fewer clock ticks. The result is
that the clock stays more accurate. SLIP/CSLIP operation
is supported at up to 57.6 Kbps on a 486. CSLIPPER is a
version which supports Van Jacobson header compression.
Supports PKTMUX.
SLIPPER is available from:
file://ftp.utas.edu.au/pc/trumpet/slipper/slipper.zip
file://biochemistry.cwru.edu/pub/slipper/slippr13.zip
CSLIPPER is available from:

Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 61-02-202346;
mailto:peter@psychnet.psychol.utas.edu.au
Recommendation
ETHERPPP Free
Glenn McGregor, formerly of Merit Network, has released
ETHERPPP, a PPP packet driver that simulates a class
1 (Ethernet) packet driver. It works well enough, is
simple to configure, but takes up too much RAM (121K).
Available as: file://merit.edu/pub/ppp/etherppp.zip
Recommendation
PKTMUX v1.2 Free
This program allows multiple TCP/IP protocol stacks to
use a single packet driver. It can also run over shims
such as DIS_PKT; I have used it with four or more
simultaneous DOS-based applications. Works great. However,
if you are only using a single DOS TCP/IP application
under Windows, use WINPKT instead, since it takes less
memory and is faster.
Available via file://ftp-ns.rutgers.edu/pub/msdos/wattcp/pktmux12.exe,
or file://biochemistry.bioc.cwru.edu/pub/dos/pktmux12.exe,
file://biochemistry.bioc.cwru.edu/pub/dos/pktmux12.txt
Downright speculation
ODITRPKT v2.0
Supports packet drivers over ODI and token ring.
Available as file://datacomm.ucc.okstate.edu/pub/oditrpkt/BETA12.ZIP
Recommendation
WINPKT free
WINPKT is needed for running DOS applications with
built-in TCP/IP stacks under Windows, as well as for
some Windows-based TCP/IP stacks (suck as Trumpet
Winsock). Compatible with ODIPKT.
Available at file://biochemistry.bioc.cwru.edu/pub/slip/dos/winpkt.com
Downright speculation
PKTINT
PKTINT is included with the non-Winsock-compatible version
of WinQVT/Net to communicate with the real mode packet driver.
Available at file://biochemistry.micro.umn.edu/pub/qvtnet/qvtne397.zip
*Recommendation
DIS_PKT free
Provides a packet driver over an NDIS driver. This is useful
when you need to run both packet driver software (such as
KA9Q or NCSA Telnet) and NDIS-based software (such as Chameleon NFS).
The latest version works with WFW v3.11, and includes a help file
WFW.TXT with sample PROTOCOL.INI files, etc.
Available via:
file://biochemistry.bioc.cwru.edu/pub/qvtnet/dis_pkt9.zip
file://netlab.usu.edu/novell.dir/dis_pkt9.zip
Suggestion
PDEther v1.03
Supports ODI over packet drivers. Although I haven't had much
success with it, others have used it on thousands of machines
and found it better than ODIPKT, especially under Windows.
Available as:
file://sjf-lwp.novell.com/odi/pdether/getpde103.zip
*Recommendation
Odipkt v3.0
Supports packet drivers over ODI. This is the recommended
method of getting Novell NetWare to coexist with a packet-driver
based TCP/IP stack. Compatible with WINPKT.
Available as file://hsdndev.harvard.edu/pub/odipkt/odipkt.com,
file://hsdndev.harvard.edu/pub/odipkt/net.cfg,
file://hsdndev.harvard.edu/pub/odipkt/odipkt.8,

Recommendation

out an IP address from a pool.
Available as file://pine.circa.ufl.edu/pc/rarp/rarp.zip.
Recommendation
RARP client Free
This is a RARP client that can store the retrieved IP
address in a DOS environmental variable, for later
substitution into a file.
Available as file://pine.circa.ufl.edu/pc/rarpset.zip.
Recommendation
BOOTPQ v1.2 Free
BOOTPQ is a BOOTP client that can take an IP address
extracted via BOOTP and put it into a DOS environmental
variable.
Available as file://biochemistry.cwru.edu/pub/dos/bootpq12.zip
Recommendation
BOOTP Free
A bootp server available via
file://biochemistry.cwru.edu/pub/dos/bootp.zip or

WINDOWS SOCKETS IMPLEMENTATIONS
Recommendation
Trumpet WinSock
A shareware version of Windows Sockets that runs over packet
drivers and requires WINPKT. Available as:
file://ftp.utas.edu.au/pc/trumpet/winsock/twsk10a.zip,
file://ftp.utas.edu.au/pc/trumpet/winsock/winapps.zip, or

P. Tattam, Programmer; Psychology Department, University of
Tasmania, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, 61-02-202346;
mailto:peter@psychnet.psychol.utas.edu.au
Recommendation
Dialer
DIALER is a Windows program that will dial up a host and then
run a series of WIndows applications. It isn't needed with
Trumpet Winsock anymore, since this now has its own built-in
scripting language. Available at:
file://ftp.cica.indiana.edu/pub/pc/win3/util/dialexe.zip
Recommendation
Chameleon Demo Free
This is a a demonstration version of the NetManage Chameleon
TCP/IP stack. Quoting from the install instructions:
To install the software, copy each .zip file onto a
separate floppy. Insert diskette #1 into drive A:
type win a:setup (assuming you have the installation
floppy in the A drive). You will be prompted for all
the other relevant information (i.e. adapter type, IP
address, subnetmask, etc.). You can use Custom to
configure some optional information (i.e. default
gateway, DNS server, etc.). During the installation
you will be prompted for a serial number. The valid
serial number is DEMO_520045343970001, and the Key is F39B.
The included software is only valid for 30 days from
March 3, 1994. So, some time in April you'll get a
license violation message, at which time you are
supposed to run out and purchase a legal copy (we
will not object to purchases prior to the expiration day).
The winsock.dll provided in this release is compatible
with the Windows Sockets version 1.1 specification.
If you find any problems, please send your e-mail to
winsock@netmanage.com. Actually, we want to hear
from you even if you don't have any problems. ╥

prior to printing, since it will timeout quickly. Also,
remember to name the spool files correctly and once you set
the default spool directory, don't specify a full path in
