I'm using a laptop with OS/2 2.0. To connect to the ethernet in my
office I have a Xircom Pocket Ethernet Adapter for the printer port.

The TCP/IP configuration is ok, but the NDIS driver doesn't install.
It always says 'adapter not found'.

Q1.  Is there a problem with the printer port? Does OS/2 2.0 _always_
     have the port so that no other driver can get it?

Q2.  The NDIS driver by Xircom is for 16-Bit OS/2. Does anybody know
     about problems using it with 32-Bit OS/2
     (I don't have Problems using the 16-Bit drivers for 3COM-Boards)

Please respond by email.

Thanks for your help.
