NFS/PMX and MPTNS and TCPIP upgrades

[Tom Eichenberg]

I have recently had to build a new WARP4 system from
scratch on my old THINKPAD 760ELD. Two very important
pieces of software for me are the NFS client and PMX server
which I bought years ago from IBM. After loading the base
WARP 4 system, I can use my NFS and PMX without any
problems.

I then use the WARPUP CD system (last one available, Nov 2001).
I have no problems updating to FIXPACK 15 level. However,I have
discovered if I try to update MPTNS/TCPIP to the most recent
level on the WARPUP CD, I have problems with my NFS
and PMX (and TELNET/FTP also!!). I get these problems
updating with either the 16-bit or 32 bit packages. There doesn't
appear to by any updates for the NFS client driver either.

I am using a 3COM PCMCIA card, driver v1.6 from the base
WARP4. When Updating the MPTNS the driver becomes v1.8, but
I don't think my problems are card driver related.

Does anyone know anything about these MPTNS/TCPIP packages?
Is it possible to download and update my NFS package so I will be
compatible with the MPTNS/TCPIP updates? My current driver
is dated 1994, Version 2 I think.

Thanks in advance.
Tom.

TCP/IP 4.3x contains updated NFS stuff.
