- Hi,
-
- I have a Thinkpad 750 that at my work sits in a dock 1 connected via a
- Future Domain adapter in the dock to a 1 Gb HD and a CD-ROM. The whole is on
- a ethernet via a PCMCIA card. Today I downloaded 1.99P and was able to get
- it running again under OS/2 Warp. The latter has TCPIP 2.0 installed, as
- well as Novell netware requester Now, what happened was the following:
- When the browser appeared the network drives showed up in the active band!
- However I could not get any files visible in an open window after clicking
- on the drive icon. But, when I launched any program, e.g. TextEdit, I could
- successfully load files from the network drives, as long as they were at the
- root of the drive. When clicking on a folder it showed an error message in
- the band where the name of the folder should have appeared.
-
- So, this means that Executor, under Warp, is almost network savvy! It looks
- as if little hacking is needed to get it really running well. At present our
- Novell server is not set up for a Mac environment. It will be in a month or
- so. If on that new server files in folders become accessible, ARDI has a
- very nice extra bell on Executor for people running Warp. Maybe Cliff and
- friends can look into this, because, really, you are very near a working
- network connection!
-
- Keep up the good work!
