Q-54: Resolving troubles with TCP/IP

Internet doesn't work:
* Check that you have IP-address. ifconfig (Windows: ipconfig)
* Can you resolve the hosts? utilities: host, nslookup, dig, ping
* ping a host/default gateway: ping, arping
* check ARP cache: arp -an
* Do you have DNS-servers: eComStation - file: \mptn\etc\resolv2 (Unix: /etc/resolv.conf)
* check the routing table: nestat -rn (Linux: route) 

Moreover:
* eComStation: tracerte (Windows: trracert, Unix: traceroute), tcptracerpute, mtr
* check the cables, gigabyte network requires special cables. Crooked cable maybe damaged


What to do?
* problems with DNS  -> IP address, DNS servers, table of routing
* No IP: ARP cache, link status, cabling
* No internet: check routing
* TCP/UDP: netio, netcat, ..
* all other problems - tcmdump

You can't stop time flow..

When UEFI and other barriers appeared, we said: it's not important what is changing in the computers. You can always install OS/2 to Used Core 2 Duo PC.

Time goes and we see that OS/2 must support new models of computers because old generations are not available. don't fit the requirements.


 

 

ArcaOS 5.1.1 - DOS works again

DOS virtual machine works again (it was working on Core 2 Duo, and didn't for i5). Install ArcaOS in UEFI mode to use DOS VM.

PNG icons on Desktop

eCo Software: it's a significant achievement that we have created PNG icons engine for OS/2 Desktop. and designed the set of system icons. In other words, we have modernized the external view of OS/2.

Now we can discuss how to attract new users.
