Back in Oct. 88, I read some postings about problems with running setup(8)
with class B networks when doing a remote installation of Sun OS 3.5.
Since I am having problems with setup(8) and have a class B network, I was
wondering if anyone could tell me what they did to solve this problem?

As suggested in Oct., I configured the tape server to make tapeless client
a boot client, booted the tapeless client in single user mode, and then
used dd(1) to copy over the miniroot.  I was able to run setup(8) but I
got complaints such as "Unable to make contact with 1/4" Tape Drive".  I
tried to fake out setup(8) by using 128.109.40961 instead of 128.109.160.1
(40961 = 256*160 + 1) for the tapeless client's host address but that
didn't seem to work.  Am I doing this right?  Is there some other trick
that you have to play on setup(8)?

I also get the following error on the tapeless client whenever I try to
execute setup(8), rsh, or rlogin:

	ioctl: Operation not supported on socket
	Where are you?

What does this message mean?

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!
