Setting up WfW with TCP Manually: Resource Kit Manual Error (93124)
This article was previously published under Q93124
SUMMARY
On page E-5 of the Microsoft Windows for Workgroups "Resource Kit"
version 3.1 manual, the device driver name in the [ms$tcp] section of
the PROTOCOL.INI file is incorrectly shown in lowercase letters:
[ms$tcp]
drivername=TCPIP$ (not tcpip$ as shown in the guide)
SYMPTOMS
If the drivername is lowercase, TCPDRV.DOS fails to initialize in the
CONFIG.SYS file, and this error message is displayed:
DOS TCP/IP Resident Driver Initialzation failed
(with "initialization" misspelled as shown).
CAUSE
Initialization fails because the drivername contains lowercase letters.
RESOLUTION
Use uppercase letters for the drivername.
LAN Manager 2.2 includes a protocol disk in Windows for Workgroups format,
so you can ignore the NDIS transport protocol integration procedure
described in the "Resource Kit."
