| Question - you stated that when you did a clean install of the v1.1.
client everything was ok - Am I correct?
There are several registry keys that are changed during
install/uninstall. You mentioned that you hand edited the registry - am
I correct? That's no guarantee since you may have missed several keys
that had to be changed.
I'm going to ask if you could give me the following pieces of info.
First in you windows\system directory would you please tell me the date
and size of the dclnamc.vxd both you when do a clean install and when
you install (upgrade) over a previously installed cluster kit. Also in the
registry after doing both the clean install and the upgrade would you
please check on the following registry key values?
1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Vxd\DCLNAMC
should have 2 values 1) start = 0
2) StaticVxD = "dclnamc.vxd"
2)HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\DigitalCluster\
NetworkProvider
should have 4 "important" values 1) CallOrder = 1
2) Name = DigitalCluster
3) NetID = 0x0,,, 300 (768)
4) ProviderPath = clunsapi.dll
3)HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\Order
should have 3 values (or more if you have more network redirectors)
in the following order
1) Default = value not set
2) DigitalCluster
3) MSNP32
Please let me know what you find. I'm getting suspicious about the
installing of the client if it works when you do a clean install but
not if you are just upgrading.

clean means a new installation of Windows 95 and a clusters 1.1 installation
not preceded by a 1.0 client installation.

You are right, no garantee at all. At last I followed the information
in the 1.1 documentation on what registry entries to delete manually, no
success.

Definition of situation A: After upgrade from cluster client 1.0 to 1.1
and reinstalling the network stuff.
Definition of situation B: After a new installation of Windows 95 and new
installation of cluster client 1.1
Situation A: dclnamc.vxd: 45 kb, 2/12/97 2:33 AM
Situation B: dclnamc.vxd: 45 kb, 2/12/97 2:33 AM

Situation A: correct
Situation B: correct
Remark 1:
When I reinstalled the Windows 95 network stuff (Situation A) I
retained the newer version of c:\windows\system\ndis.vxd
(97 kb, 8/28/96 11:50 AM)
Remark 2:
In the 1.0 time I have repaced a file on the cluster clients because of
an error with "find" in the explorer (explorer hangs).
Remark 3:
clunsapi files are the same (situation A and B)
Remark 4:
The two problem clients are the only clients I upgraded to version 1.1
(An installation over de 1.0 version). Maybe a deinstall of version
1.0 makes a difference?
Remark 5:
At this moment all my clients are working. As soon as the problem
reappers again (it happened once) I will gather all possible information.
Thanks,
Cor
