Problem with WinQVT/NET

	I have just attempted to run WinQVT/NET and have not had much luck.
I am using a packet driver for an in-house ethernet board which has run
without any problems with NCSA Telnet 2.2 for nearly a year.  After I have
installed the packet driver and pktint, when I start WinQVT/NET it
immediately complains: "Stop!  Packet Class is neither Ethernet nor Slip.
Not supported class."  Followed closely by "Network Initialization Error!"

	I have a few questions:
  1) Why should this packet driver not work with WinQVT/NET?  It was written
to the FTP packet driver spec 1.08.

  2) In the QVT_TCP.RC file, is the packet_vector parameter supposed to be
the pktint vector (0x80) or the real packet driver vector (0x60 for this
driver)?  The above operation is when packet_vector=80 is used.  If I use
packet_vector=60, the packet driver sign-on message is displayed and the
system crashes.

  3) Are there any tools that will allow me to probe the packet driver that I
have, i.e. find out the packet class, functions supported, etc.?

	Thanks for any help you can provide.  Please respond via email.  If I
receive other requests, I will summarize to the net.

 -Bob
