The one file included in this directory contains version 10.x of the packet drivers provided by Crynwr Software. These drivers were formerly provided by Clarkson College of Potsdam, NY. With this release of the drivers Clarkson is officially out of the packet driver business. Listed below is the text of the message Russell Nelson, developer and supporter of the drivers, sent announcing the availability of version 10.x. Please note the warnings and proceed with caution. =========================================================================== Date: Tue, 21 Jan 1992 11:16:22 EST From: Russell Nelson Organization: Crynwr Software; 11 Grant St.; Potsdam, NY 13676;315-268-1925 Reply-To: Russell Nelson To: drivers@sun.soe.clarkson.edu Subject: BETA test of 10.x release The 10.x packet drivers are on asylum.sf.ca.us for anonymous ftp, in beta-packet-drivers. There are three files, drivers.zip, drivers1.zip, and drivers2.zip. The first one contains executables and documentation. The other two contain sources. To the best of my knowledge, these drivers work. I have not made any "dangerous" changes since the 9.x release. HOWEVER, please treat them as a beta release until we've gotten some reports that they work. I haven't announced these anywhere else -- I want to hear from you before I do. Of special interest are PKTTRAF.COM, a graphical display of network traffic, and WINPKT.COM, a shim to make packet drivers work with Windows 3.0 Enhanced mode. The DEPCA driver works on the revision E DEPCA and DE-100 that I have. I haven't tried it on a DE-200, but I used the most general possible algorithm. The SLIP8250 driver now transmits using a busy-wait loop, which should be more reliable than the old interrupt method. If it proves to be unacceptably slow, I have some improvements to the interrupt method that may work. Still no Everex or UB-NIU or EXOS 205T packet drivers. Still doesn't work on some WD Elite-16 boards. -- -russ I'm proud to be a humble Quaker! Until my domain gets registered, you may need to use .
