7366.0. "Native DLL for NE2000?" by NETCAD::FERGUSON () Fri Mar 14 1997 14:39

    NPB has recently started shipping DE305, which is an NE2000- 
    compatible network adapter.  A question has come from the field, 
    asking if there is a Pathworks native DLL driver for DE305.  
    We do not ship one with the product.  However, I was hoping an 
    NE2000-compatible native DLL ships with Pathworks?  I would 
    appreciate if someone could tell me for certain if it does or not, 
    so that I could answer.
    
    Thank you.

There is not a NE2000 DLL in Pathworks.
7366.2SPELNK::curlessSure it's a bug, but did you CLD/QAR it?Wed Mar 19 1997 09:409
Nor would there be a native driver for the 305 unless the NPB
folks write it... and to what end?  PATHWORKS and the industry is
heading to Windows 95/NT support... why waste money on a native
driver for an adapter that will be used by a limited number of
people, when the money could be better spent on marketing the 
product.
