NetBIOS

Distribution: world
Subject: Need Info about NetBIOS-programming!
Summary: NetBIOS
Keywords: NetBIOS, nowait-mode.

I developed a (realtime) multi-user networkapplication which is based on 
NetBIOS. To use NetBIOS I developed a toolbox which is implemented in Turbo
PASCAL version 6. NetBIOS is used entirely in nowait-mode and the toolbox allows me to transfer mail and files acros an Ethernet-PC network. An automatic
login- and logout-system creates sessions between stations. 
However...
sometimes NetBIOS suffers from crashes which I cannot control. So I have a 
few questions maybe you could answer!:
- When a station crashes, NetBIOS remains 'active' at the station. How can I
  avoid interference of this station at other stations?
- I use NetBIOS-version 3.02c. Is this the latest version?
- Does disc-access (harddisc) influence the correct working of NetBIOS?
- Do nested interrupts occure while using NetBIOS?

Some related questions:
- Is it possible to highload NetBIOS?
- Does 'Inline($FA)' and 'Inline($FB)' in TP6.0 really disable and enable
  interrupts? Particularly with respect to disable interrupts of NetBIOS!  
- The toolbox I spoke about is implemented in Turbo PASCAL 6.0. Could this
  cause some of the problems?
- Are there ANY good manuals of NetBIOS?

Thanks for reading it!!

Do you have any plans on distributing this toolkit?  Perhaps in shareware 
form?  It sounds like a really good NetBIOS tool, especially for TP
programmers...
