525.0. "win95 client problems" by NCMAIL::LEFFLERM () Tue Mar 25 1997 10:59

    I am having problems with a win95 client.
    
    Whenever I start up the user or administrator application from the
    client, I get a message saying "connecting to server", then I get 3
    pop-ups in a row, all saying something like "winworker - This program
    has caused an illegal operation and will be shut down". The details
    button reveals that "WINWORKR caused an invalid page fault in module
    WSOCK32.DLL ...etc"
    
    This client can ping the server (A UNIX machine) and vice versa. I have
    NT clients being backed up on the same server with no problems.
    
    Any suggestions?
    
    Thanks,
    Mark

	Do you have tcp/ip setup on this 'W95 system? Please provide version info for NetWorker on the client.
525.2	tcp is setup	NQOS01::bfo7.bfo.dec.com::leffler		`Tue Mar 25 1997 11:31`	9
	Yes, TCP is setup. I can ping the server, the server can ping the client, the w95 machine has full internet access, etc. The w95 kit was copied off of slugbt.zso.dec.com this AM, came over as win95.zip. Although I can not start the admin or user program to verify the version, the Scheduled Backup Program reports that it is version 4.2. -Mark

	So, apparently some of the client is running (scheduled backup), right? What happens if you start a window in the Dark Place, cd \"Program Files"\legato\nsr\bin and perform this command: winadmin -s <server name> ?
525.4	no luck	NQOS01::bfo7.bfo.dec.com::leffler		`Tue Mar 25 1997 12:51`	10
	The same ugly error message(s). When I don't specify a server, it searches for about 60 seconds then I get the errors. The client has been added at the server using the server admin tool. I've de-installed (manually removing the registry entries) and re-installed, no luck. I think I'll find another w95 box & try installing there. -Mark
525.5	fixed	NQOS01::bfo7.bfo.dec.com::leffler		`Tue Mar 25 1997 13:54`	7
	The problem was that this was a laptop with the AltaVista Pseudo Tunnel adapter installed. Networker was getting a bogus address from the tunnel adapter instead of the correct address from the ethernet card. I released the Tunnel adapter address & everything works fine now. -Mark

	I'm seeing the same set of errors on two Windows 95 machines which have the Tunnel software installed. Both report this error message regardless of whether I have the tunnel active or not: WINWORKR caused an invalid page fault in module WSOCK32.DLL at 0137:7e2e7bdf.

I can't deinstall the tunnel, because that's how I connect back in to Digital, yet it's painful to run Windows Backup to a NT-served drive and then NSR-backup that. --Ed
