  1. You probably first want to put all licenses on all nodes. This
    can be done with the “license” utility if you have license
    diskettes, or you can edit the /.licenses file and enter
    all your qnx… licenses.

  2. Once this is done, you will want to assign different node
    numbers to each cpu. To do this, go to the /boot/build directory
    and find the current build file. Edit the file and change the line
    that says:

Proc32 -l 1

and make the 1 some other node number. Use 2, 3, 4 etc. up
the maximum number of licenses.

  1. You will now want to setup a netmap file. This is
    described in the documenation, however you basically
    want a file /etc/netmap that looks like this:

1 1 00A044 5CF4F9
2 1 008033 8c2396
3 1 002022 1050C4

Now you can reboot your systems, make sure that you
run:

Net &
Net.YOUR_DRIVER &
netmap -f


Instead of the 2nd line, you can try:

nettrap start

You should now have a working QNX network.

To get TCP/IP running, you will need to decide
on a configuration. You can configure each node
with an IP address, or have only one TCP/IP node
that will provide TCP/IP for all nodes.
