| You still have the wrong syntax. Don't put an "=" in the "/I:" switch. The
following is what you need:
DEVICE=\PROTMAN.SYS /I:A:\

| re :-1
I tried that first.... the base note lists the error with that syntax.
Any help appreciated.

| 1666.3 | It all looks the same if you stare at it long enough :-) | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Wed Nov 09 1994 12:29 | 16 |
| RE: Dennis
The first example you gave was this:
"DEVICE=\PROTMAN.SYS /I:A\"
There is no ":" between the "A" and the "\" for the device specification in the
/I switch. The second example you wrote was this:
"DEVICE=\PROTMAN.SYS /I:=A:\"
That, too, is wrong. Do not put an "=" in the /I switch. The proper syntax is:
"DEVICE=\PROTMAN.SYS /I:A:\"

| 1666.4 | My version !? | EEMELI::SOHLMAN | Jouko Sohlman , NIS Helsinki Finland | Wed Nov 09 1994 12:49 | 9 |
| Hello!
On my downloader disk the config.sys contains:
device=PROTMAN.SYS /I:A:\
It worked for today!

| 1666.5 | Still doesn't work | GRANPA::DFAUST | Bad Things, man... | Mon Nov 14 1994 10:52 | 27 |
| I have just copied the DNU Plus kit from NETCAD (DOS version) and
edited the CONFIG.SYS to the reflect the EWRK3 driver. My CONFIG.SYS
consists of:
shell=\command.com /P /E:526
device=PROTMAN.SYS /I:A:\
device=\ewrk3.DOS
When I boot the disk, the print out is as follows:
MS DOS LAN Manager Protocol Manager v1.1
PRO0011E: Equal sign missing between keyword and value
It bombs out trying to do all of the other network loads because the
Protocol Manager isn't loaded.
I have gotten the same errors using two different versions of the
HUBwatch for Windows (Version 3.1) of the NDU distribution kit. I have
modified PROTOCOL.INI to remark out all of the non EWRK3 driver stuff
and loaded EWRK3 into the Bindings section.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?!?!?!

| 1666.6 | PROTOCOL.INI problem? | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Mon Nov 14 1994 13:02 | 8 |
| Dennis...
There must be something wrong in your PROTOCOL.INI file. That's what gets
read in when the protocol manager runs. Check that file for improper syntax.
Note 836.5 has an example of a PROTOCOL.INI file that works for me with an
Etherworks III card.

It now works... the problem was that I used rem to get rid of the lines
I didn't need, rather that using a semi-colon. I just _love_ DOS.

| 1666.8 | When DOS is not DOS ... | ROGER::GAUDET | Because the Earth is 2/3 water | Tue Nov 15 1994 20:28 | 7 |
| Yup, that'll do it. PROTOCOL.INI is not a DOS batch file. It's the
initialization file read by PROTMAN.SYS (the /I switch tells PROTMAN where to
look for PROTOCOL.INI). As you discovered, PROTMAN doesn't do REM.
Glad it's working now.
