I just got ODINSUP installed yesterday and had the same problem with
a NE2000 NIC i.e. TCP/IP works for a minute or so then dies.
Anybody got a solution for an NE2000?

Of course to get that far I had to learn that Figure 6.1 p 6-4 in the
NW Requester manual has the sequence of ODINSUP.SYS and NE2000.SYS reversed
so that the CONFIG.SYS as illustrated doesnt work!
(Thanks to hamish@waikato for getting me out of that one)

BTW why does NW spell it requestER and IBM spell it requestOR (TCP/IP docs).
Does Novell, er, know how to spell, or, did IBM get it right?
