Hello,

my current DOS program which uses the 802.2 Interface (IBM Lan
Support Program) does not work in the DOS window under OS/2.
After searching through a few documents, I came across the
following:
  In an application program using the IEEE 802.2 OS/2 Device
  driver interface, the register pairs ES:BX contains a pointer
  to the CCB issued.  This pointer must be a GDT when using the
  device driver interface.

Could someone provide me an example of how this is done?

Thanks in advance.
