Newsreader and Location of Network settings

QNX Newsgroups (Archives) qdn.public.qnx4
1

Hi,

I’m running QNX4.25D and I’ve finally managed to get the browser to work.

I’d like to be able to check the newsgroups from within QNX and I was
wondering what program (preferably shareware) that I should be looking for.

I currently have to manually type in the following two lines before I can
access the internet through voyager.

  1. ifconfig en1 netmask 255.255.255.224
  2. route -n add default 207.XXX.XXX.XXX

How would I add these into the network files so that they would be
automatically loaded.

Thanks in Advance
Dan

Are you using /etc/netstart (a shell script) to start uip TCP/IP?
If so, you can add these lines there. If netstart is being started from
sysinit, then you may have to prepend /usr/ucb/ to these commands as
it’s not normally part of PATH at bott time.
