[HECnet] Looking for WWENG2.SYS for DECserver 900TM

[David R. Lennon]

Hi,
      I believe that "Network Access SW V3.6 BL01" is the very latest WWENG2.SYS available that supports many different types of DECservers. However, it is still being actively(?) sold by Vnetek (the company after DNPG):

http://www.vnetek.com/p-2887-dnas-decserver-network-access-software.aspx

    I did have an issue with that version with modems and DECserver 700s that I had to fall back to V3.5 on those.

    I think the "Network Access SW V2.3A" was the last one from DEC.

Regards,
Dave

Thanks to all for WWENG2.SYS. The DECserver 900TM seems to be working well.

Regards

Rob

I believe the WWENG2.SYS from Dave McGuire is version 2.2.

I have a 900TM booting 2.4, and another which I loaded with 2.2 from Dave.

2.2 works, but 2.4 seems more stable and faster, but I just have 2.4 on
a card in the one 900TM. Does anyone either have the 2.4 or newer file, or
know how to copy the WWENG2.SYS off a 900TM?
