NET3406 An error occurred while opening network device driver NET1=NETBIOS. SYS1719: The file C:\IBMLAN\NETPROG\NETWKSTA.200 specified in the IFS statement on line 36 of the config.sys file does not contain a valid device driver or file system driver. Line 36 is ignored. " I would prefer not to deinstall and reinstall MPTS because I've had difficulty with it in the past. When I deinstalled the two NICs, I of course had to remove each protocol before removing the NIC. Is there something in IBMLAN.INI or config.sys that I should change that would likely fix this? On a second box I have the NIC loading fine according to the verbose boot information but then am stopped by: "ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR): Invalid argument" and have to hit ENTER to continue. I recall searching for SIOCAIFADDR in all of the DLLs and SYS and other files I could think of since it was likely present in ASCII text. I found it that way and was able to solve a similar problem previously as a result. But, I seem to have saved the information in that secret place where I "save" so much valuable material for future reference. Any thoughts? Or, have I provided far too little background information?
