China DOS Union

Changed back to "c:\intel\netbind.com", run debug test, after d180, no "xxxx:0183H" appeared, and no "PKT DRVR" characters on the right;
Protocol.ini is
[protman]
drivername=PROTMAN$

[pktdrv]
drivername=PKTDRV$
bindings=nic
intvec=0x60
chainvec=0x66

[nic]
DriverName=RTSND$
;MaxMultiCasts=10
;TxBuffers=4
;RxBuffers=4
;Medium=_100Full

Test environment is DOS

Regarding the problem of print output, the "InitSystem()" function has been executed

So it means my network card driver definitely hasn't started.

Then ask another question, how to set the network IP address under DOS

Is there the simplest way to check if "Packet Driver" is loaded successfully? It is to use the debug program to check whether the content of the 60H interrupt vector has the string "PKT DRVR".

(1) The first step, execute "Debug" under the DOS command line.
(2) The second step, type "d180" and press Enter.
(3) The third step, pay attention to the consecutive four bytes jj kk mm nn indicated by xxxx:0180. If it is 00 00 00 00, it is not loaded successfully; otherwise, the fourth step.

(4) The fourth step, type d nnmm:kkjj and press Enter (note: nn mm kk jj is the result of the third step).
(5) The fifth step, check whether there is the string "PKT DRVR" on the right side of the screen. If there is, it is loaded successfully; otherwise, it is not loaded successfully.

In the private Config.Sys file of WinSail, specify the key value "My_IP" in the "Netcard" section.


My_IP = 169.254.82.133

d180 does not indeed show the PKT DRVR word on the right, but there are prompts like Ethernet address 00e04cf... etc. when booting.

[Netcard]
My_IP = 169.254.82.133

So it seems that the network card driver was not loaded successfully, because the positions of jj, kk, mm, nn are all 0

(1) Displaying the NIC address can only indicate that the NDIS driver is loaded.
(2) Only after executing the NetBind.Com program can the NDIS be truly converted into a Packet driver. Note that the Protman.Exe and NetBind.Com files must be in the same directory.

NDIS driver is a network protocol interface standard proposed by Microsoft.
Packet driver is a network protocol interface standard proposed by xxxx company.
IPX driver is a network protocol interface standard proposed by Novel company.

Then the problem should be with netbind. How to solve it

If you are using an 8139 network card, you can directly execute "RtsPkt.Com 0x60" in the DOS command line to load the Packet driver. You can find this file in the Sail3000\Internet\Other directory. If the loading is successful, the NIC address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx will be displayed, and then try the "QQ Chat Room" of Sail3000.

Can such a thing be loaded into autoexec.bat? I'm using a realteck 8139 network card. Why does it go wrong when I load it according to the parcket driver instruction file you provided?

If you directly execute "Rtspkt.Com", then modify Config.Sys and "autoexec.bat" in the root directory of drive C as follows

The Config.Sys file is as follows

device=c:\windows\himem.sys/testmem:off
device=c:\windows\emm386.exe noems novcpi
rem devicehigh=c:\intel\protman.dos /i:c:\intel\RTL81xx
rem devicehigh=c:\intel\dis_pkt.dos
rem devicehigh=c:\intel\RTL81xx\Rtsnd.dos
dos=high,umb
stacks=12,256
files=30


The autoexec.bat file is as follows:
path c:\windows;c:\windows\command
lh smartdrv
rem c:\intel\netbind.com
lh c:\sail3000\internet\other\rtspkt 0x60

Please modify the directory where the above rtspkt.com file is located according to the actual situation

I removed all the network card configuration in config.sys, and sail3000 ran successfully; There is a question: After loading winsail, can't use the printf function? I feel that winsail is not very stable, and the program works sometimes and sometimes not.

To use network functions, the system memory should be at least "8M" or more


The printf function can be used in 16-color mode, but it cannot be used in 256-color mode. The graphic mode display function ChPrintf() can be used instead.
All Chinese displays in WinSail are implemented by calling the ChPrintf() function



(1) Display "I am learning WinSail" at x = 100, y = 50 on the screen with white stroke, red background, and text magnification factor of 1 time, then
::ChPrintf(100, 50, WHITE, RED, 1, 1, "I am learning WinSail");

(2) Display "I am learning WinSail" at x = 100, y = 50 on the screen with white stroke, transparent background, and text magnification factor of 1 time, then
::ChPrintf(100, 50, WHITE, RED, 1, 0, "I am learning WinSail now");

(3) Display "I am learning WinSail" at x = 100, y = 50 on the screen with white stroke, red background, and text magnification factor of 2 times, then
::ChPrintf(100, 50, WHITE, RED, 2, 1, "I am learning WinSail");

(1) Before executing WinSail, you should not execute UCDOS, Pdos95, etc.
(2) To save memory, do not execute the smartdrv.exe program in Autoexec.bat.
(3) You cannot execute WinSail in the Bc31 integrated environment.
(4) After booting into DOS, type "mem/c/p" in the DOS command to check the size of conventional memory. It is best to have more than "550K".
