Introduction:
My name is Peter Clifford, I teach mathematics at Oxford.
Problem:
I bought a Thinkpad 700 and have been trying to connect it
to the University ethernet (PCNFS). I used a Genius parallel
port ethernet adaptor, which is supposed to be self-configuring.
There is a programme supplied PEAPD.COM to do this. This works
fine on any ordinary PC ie straight Taiwanese clones, but fails
with the Thinkpad. Any ideas? I realise this is not 750 business
but this list is the closest approximation to a 700 list I could
find.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions. Maybe someone has managed to
get another make of parallel port ethernet adaptor working on a 700?
