I  am writing a application using WATCOM's C386 in the DOS4G extender.
I fails to install a packet receive function by using access_type(). It
seems to me the problem is that the Packet driver was runing under real
mode and it can't address the receive function which is in protected
mode (offset > 1MB). 

Is there any experienced  know how to registor a packet receive function
in the access_type()? Is there a way to force a receive function address
under 1MB in WATCOM C386, or install a protected mode function(I mean 
address > 1MB) to a packet driver?

Thanks for your time  and helpness.

you may response to kchen@math15.math.umbc.edu, and I will post
instereted answers or, answer on the news group.
