Thanks. > >Brian >bsanders@netcom.com In autoexec.bat, I load my hardware packet driver followed by PKTMUX with at least two PKTDRV slots. The DOS-based programs such as NCSA Telnet use one of them and Trumpet winsock connects to the other. This arrangement will _NOT_ work with the built-in stack, nor will it work with 32-bit network applications such as Mosaic or Netscape32. On the other hand, I can use the TEK4010 emulation of NCSA Telnet, and the configuration is very stable under Win95 from Build 347 to Build 950R-6, which is the release that will ship on Aug. 24.
