Greetings All!

I have decided to probably put max or lora on my arca installation.. I plan to use hpt/binkd (hoping max without squish may do jam?) anyhow I installed vsio2k and it appears to work.. vmodem starts and runs no errors... However for the life of me I cannot find documentation to have it listen for telnet ports.. Ive searched high and low, logged on to probably 25 BBS's looking, tried reaching out at os2world and fb no usable data.. Has anyone here got that to work? If so feel like helping me out?

Thanks in advance

I am using v1.60 and here is my entries into config.sys. I am not sure if 2k works the same or not, But this might get you headed in the right direction.

REM SIO Setup
DEVICE=c:\sio\sio.sys (COM1:115200,INTERNET:3F8,4,-) (COM2:115200,INTERNET:2F8,3,-) (COM3:115200,INTERNET:3E8,4,-) (COM4:115200,INTERNET:2E8,3,-)
DEVICE=c:\sio\vsio.sys
DEVICE=c:\sio\vx00.sys

The first DEVICE line is assigning the comports to use for telnet. I have 4 of them setup. vsio and vx00 are DOS drivers I believe. s

Thankyou for that... I did try your config lines with vsio2k and crashed system... So I installed 160 and it seems to boot fine and claims to be running... when I run vmodem from a command prompt it loads and says that it is fine.. So setting those com ports to "internet" is that the only variable? Is there no where to mention telnet and perhaps a port? or does it just listen for any traffic? So far I can get it to react to an incoming telnet....

ANyhow thank you I am another step further I suppose...

It should automagically grab port 23 and the first connection will connect it to COM1, and if another connection comes it it goes to COM2, etc.

Vmodem should load with 4 lines on top for each of the com ports. And when someone attempts to connect to the port, it should show the incoming connection
below that. It shows the IP and the port it is assigned to.

Is it showing any of that?

Hi, Rick!

I have also been looking for help with SIO2K for a long time and
the result of everything is a functional configuration so that I have
2x standard COM1 and COM2 and 2x VMODEM on COM3 and COM4.

You can find the necessary here: www.popper.cz/ecs-arcaos/Rick

Thank you very much robin... I did not know how to use your devlist? is that placed in sio2k dir or? I tried using it as sio2k.cfg which created errors at boot so I guessed wrong I believe... Thank you so much for your help.
