-
- (1) Rename STARTUP.CMD to STARTUP.BAK.
- (2) Create a program object called TCP/IP Startup. Have that program
- object run \TCPIP\BIN\TCPSTART.CMD.
- (3) Drag a shadow of this TCP/IP Startup program object to your
- Startup folder.
- (4) Change the START lines in your TCPSTART.CMD file to START /MIN ...
-
- That should get you started.
