1612.0. "Does Hubwatch 3.1 support/run on Windows NT 3.5?" by OSL09::OLAV (Do it in parallel!) Tue Oct 25 1994 03:54

Will Hubwatch 3.1 support any windows sockets compliant TCP/IP stack like
Microsoft TCP/IP-32 for Windows for Workgroups? Will it run properly
on Windows NT 3.5? Do you have any plans for a Win32 version of Hubwatch?

1612.1Windows NT: Not supported.SLINK::HOODI'd rather be at the PenobscotTue Oct 25 1994 09:538
HUBwatch has never been officially run on Windows NT, nor has it ever
been officially tested to run on Windows NT.

If there's a need for HUBwatch for Windows NT, contact the product
manager, Jack NAC::Forrest.

1612.3Works GREAT under NT V3.1WRAFLC::WOODALLMACRO is the best.Tue Oct 25 1994 12:3412
    I am successfully running HUBWATCH X3.1.3 on WINDOWS-NT V3.1.  I had to
    boot dos/windows v3.1 and install hubwatch from there.  Something about
    the hubwatch install procedure couldn't handle WINDOWS-NT.
    
    Once HUBWATCH was installed, it was easy to shutdown, reboot under NT,
    manually create an ICON group and create the hubwatch entry.
    
    Everything works great!

1612.4INSTALLIT does not run under Windows-NTNETCAD::WAGNERCOFFILMon Oct 31 1994 11:255
    The version of INSTALLIT(the installation program for HUBwatch for
    Windows) does not support Windows-NT. That is why you had problems
    with the HUBwatch installation under NT.

1612.5Windows NT 3.5 revisited...BIGUN::chmeee::MayneMy TARDIS isn't big enoughFri Feb 03 1995 00:045
So, has anybody tried the installation under Windows NT 3.5 (Intel)? If it 
doesn't work, does anyone have a workaraound? (Booting to DOS isn't a 
workaround: this must be done entirely from Windows NT.)

1612.6Just boot Win 3.1 to install it, then pointer in Win-NTROMEOS::HARRIS_MASales Executive IIMon Feb 06 1995 15:5911
    I've been told that if you have Win-NT *AND* Windows V3.1 running on
    the same machine (using dual-boot option for instance) then you can
    boot into Windows V3.1 like regular and install Hubwatch, THEN
    re-boot the machine to Win-NT and add an icon for the HUBwatch
    application (since it was already installed). You can then disable
    dual-boot option and run the whole thing from Windows-NT and never see
    DOS and/or Win 3.1 again...
    
    So I've been told.

1612.7BIGUN::chmeee::MayneMy TARDIS isn't big enoughTue Apr 04 1995 05:2213
So, we installed HW on a Windows machine and copied the files to Windows NT. 
Ran fine. So we then ZIPped up the files and took them to the customer's Windows 
NT machine. Not only doesn't it run, it crashes the Win16 subsystem when it 
attempts to start.

Please don't remind me that Hubwatch isn't supported on Windows NT. I know that. 
Please don't remind me to write to the PM. I've done that.

Has anybody got even the faintest idea as to why Hubwatch is doing something as 
drastic as crashing the Win16 subsystem on one machine, using the same files 
that were copied from a Windows NT machine where it works fine?
