995.0. "Winframe - DECNET timeouts???" by HGOVC::PATRICKNG () Thu Feb 20 1997 10:31

Hi,

A customer has tested Winframe on NT 3.51 with Pathworks for WNT 4.1x. They can 
successfully access ACMS host on VAX platforms via DECNET, but it is very 
unstable. The network timeouts/drops after a few access to the the host.


The setup is following :



     Winframe Client		Winframe Server		VAX host
     Win 95			NT 3.51			ACMS
     TCP/IP --------------------DECNET -----------------DECNET
				ACMS Desktop		ACMS Server
			        

Did someone experience similar problem on WINFRAME - DECNET timeouts or 
network dropout frequently? What are the problems you have experienced on 
Winframe?



Thanks,
Patrick

    Hi Patrick,
    
    I've only played with it for a short time.  I'm running TCP/IP
    exclusively.  The client is a WYSE Winterm.  Winframe version is
    equivalent to NT 3.51 SP5.
    
    Office95 applications seem to work fine.  Vt320e works fine.
    Exchange for NT V4.0 doesn't work properly.  I haven't had time
    to try anything else yet.  The server itself seems stable.
