I had performance problems in #Doom over #IPX, that turned out to be because one of my nics was running at 10 half duplex.

So I replaced it with a PCI nic. But it wasn't getting an IRQ at all. So I had to move it to a different slot which was directly next to the AGP. So now there's capton tape on the back of the NIC so it doesn't short out against the VGA heatsink.

Aren't #retrocomputers just the best? 😄

I think i just made the first timid steps on understanding some core concepts behind #ipv6 that i always struggled to understand.
I just started to think about it like a more sane version of #IPX than a totally insane version of #ipv4 and suddenly things start to make sense...

Of course that doesn't help anyone who never used IPX, but it is a great help for me. To be honest I am still scared of IPV6 because #NAT feels like a security feature if all your FW-Rules look at ip headers anyway.

Loving the days when I get the IPX Up and running (scheduled function test any 6 months)

Gestern war es soweit, es wurde das alte DOS-Spiel "Master of Orion 2" gespielt jedoch nicht wie zuerst angedacht in englisch sondern in der deutschen Version (na ja eher einer denglischen Version 🤣).

Gespielt wurde es via DOSBox über IPX-Netzwerk im Multiplayer.

Morgen wird der DOS Klassiker "Master of Orion 2" gespielt, im Netzwerk (IPX-Netzwerk). Wir werden es auf Englisch spielen da nur die Version bis heute aktuell gehalten wird mittels Patches.

@JoeRess @LateNightLinux Your 'What if Linux Torvalds hadn't written Linux?' this week really didn't do the topic justice. All the presenters did it from a narrow view in a Linux bubble. Working in the industry during the 90s, there were a lot of other things to take into consideration and possibilities. There are probably many others like me that could have brought a more diverse insight and arguments to the conversation.

FWIW, the #IPX protocol was from Novell and was part of their NetWare stack. #NetBEUI was the protocol that you were after, while an IBM thing, was part of the Microsoft Windows ecosystem before Winsock TCP/IP and eventually TCP in WfW 3.11 replaced it.

@quux I love that lift door. But I haven't used any of those and used stairs. Was that #IPX then? 😅

How does #DOSBox #IPX emulation work within its environment? I get the "tunnel packets over UDP" thing but my question is, how does a game (DOOM, for example) within DOSBox know the IPX network is "running" and how to send packets into it?

Usually DOS stuff had to have drivers for everything - a game would have 10 different soundcard drivers, for example, because no common soundcard API existed - how is this not the same situation for IPX networks, which could be on an NE2000 or a 3c501 or any other NIC?

Запускаем DOOM на отечественной ретро-сети ИОЛА: игра в 4 руки на 2-х мегабитах

Здравствуйте, дорогие друзья! Что общего, между ретро-сетью ИОЛА и канонической тест-игрой DOOM? Правильно: мультиплеер, игра по сети. В данном очерке вы увидите настройку 8-ми битной сетевой ISA-платы от отечественного производителя, сети ИОЛА и мультиплеер DOOM. А не увидите вы следующего: не будет никаких Windows (ну или самую малость), Linux и xBSD, сегодня только чистый-светлый MS-DOS 6.22. В статье используются процессоры Am386 SX-33. Приготовьтесь к крайне медленному отображению игрового процесса, это сделано намеренно, ведь процессор 80386, первый в своем поколении, способный протянуть сквозь себя вышеописанную игру, хочется напомнить, как это было, ретро ведь. Кто не равнодушен к ретро-железу и ретро-геймингу, добро пожаловать под кат, вас ждут фото, конфиги и видеодемонстрация процесса, следуйте за мусье.

So.. After a few - no, a lot - of snags and bugs and corner cases and compromises: #Novell #NetWare 4.2 (which is really 4.11 with some make-up) for OS/2 running on a 486DX50 EISA-based machine. Networking is by a pair of 100Mbit network cards (one for each kernel personality), while main file storage is on a #ZuluSCSI connected to an Adaptec 2742-controller.
For the occasion I also built a new "rack", with dedicated console for the machine. Next up - #IPX-ify all my #DOS machines :D
#retro #retrocomputing #supervisorhero
New "rack", cheap storage shelf from Clas Ohlson.. Top shelf with server mounted on an open frame hanging from the back wall; shelf below with display, keyboard and mouse.Close-up of server; shelf is covered in gray LEGO surface with a few small LEGO cars and The Joker's helicopter suspended in front of the motherboard.Screenshot (well, photo) of server; shows OS/2 desktop with the NetWare server in one window, the NWADMIN tool in a DOS box, NetWare Tools for OS/2 in a third window, and a Babylon 5 wallpaper.Details of server: 128MB RAM, serial ports, Sound Blaster 16, Compaq NetFlex-3 EISA 100Mbit NIC, a hidden 3Com EISA 100Mbit NIC, an ISA ATI Mach64 with 4MB VRAM, an Adaptec AHA-2742 wide-SCSI controller, and (hidden) a Tekram VLB caching IDE controller.

Parlant amb el meu cunyat d'especificacions #IPX ("que me la pela el que digui el pamfleto del mòbil que et vols comprar, quin estàndard IPX ha declarat?"), he arribat a aquesta imatge i la veig molt interessant de compartir

Taula de valoració de la protecció de sòlids i líquids IP, mostrant el valor de 0 a 6 per a sòlids i de 0 a 8 per a líquids, amb una icona i descripció de cadascún.
