LAN Manager
Problems
Table 11.4
LAN Manager problems
(page 11-21) lists
common LAN Manager problems using the TCP/IP protocols,
the possible causes, and recommended corrective actions.
If you are having trouble reaching the XNIC on the network,
first verify the following points:
Verify that all network connections are functioning.
Verify that the TCP/IP protocol stack is correctly installed
on your file server and that you are using the correct IP
addresses. Also verify the subnet mask, if any.
Ensure that you have low level TCP/IP connection
between the LAN Manager file server and the XNIC by
using the
ping
utility.
If other applications are using the TCP/IP sockets, ensure
that your
NumSockets
is configured for the correct value.
This value may also be increased to add multiple printers.
NumSockets is located in the [SOCKETS] section of
TCPUTIL.INI.
The XNICs LAN Manager process uses one TCP/IP
socket for each active printer.
Ensure the value of
TcpConnection
in the PROTOCOL.INI
is the sum total of:
TCP/IP NetBIOS se sockets sessions
+ telnet sessions.
The correct values for these are given in your LAN
Manager documentation.
