How to setup QNX RTP in a Windows NT 4.0 Enviroment?

I cannot setup QNX RTP to work in a Windows NT environment.
The ethernet card is correctly identified, using the el900 driver.
The NT environment has WINS servers.
I have used Network Cfg in Photon, but it refuses to accept a gateway
IP.
I enter the gateway IP, click add, and it goes away.
I don’t understand what the “destination” IP is for the gateway either.

I can’t seem to get ttcpip to work either.
io-net -del900 -pttcpip
nettrap
io-net -del900 (no ttcpip)

Any pointers?

I have had success with QNXrtp on a WIN2K/WIN98SE network where ICS is
running on one of the WIN2K boxes.

From a terminal prompt in QNXrtp execute the following three lines
after you boot into Photon (do NOT use the Netconfig GUI) …

slay io-net
nettrap -p tcpip -i -v start
dhcp.client -i en0 -m

Now, go into the Netconfig GUI and DHCP should indicate that it is up
(the Enabled Box will be checked).

You should now be able to browse the web through the ICS gateway.

I use 192.168.0.1 for the Gateway and etc. Don’t seem to need a netmask

  • can’t get it to stick anyway.

What kind of 3COM card do you have? When you do ‘nicinfo’ does it show and
tx or rx bytes?

I had a combo card, which did not work with the el900 driver.

Well, I can now get to the NT servers. The magic command was “fs-cifs”.
The command is NOT “fs -cifs”, no spaces, cifs is NOT an option, but part
of the command.
You must be logged on as “root” and run “terminal” in the Photon
environment.

If you have a NT server with the name “Alfa” and an ip address of
18.23.45.78 and the directory you are
permitted to access is “\project” , i.e. \Alfa\project then issue:
fs-cifs \Alfa:18.23.45.78:\project \project myid mypasswd &

Then using “File Manager” from Photo, click to the root ("" folder) and
you should see a folder named \project.
(“myid” is your NT server username. “mypasswd” is your NT username
password.)

To get help on the command fs-cifs, you can either access “Help” in photo,
or the command:
use fs-cifs (not “man”, as I had originally
thought. Use “use” instead of “man”)

I hope this explanation can help others get their QNX Photon setup working.

Now, can anyone help me access network printers under NT??? Say I have a
printer \Alfa\hp1234 at the address ip 18.23.200.101…
