Re: [foxboro] RE-RE-REbuilding a WP70

David...
 
In event viewer system log check for a message that may say DNBI Initialization 
Failed  if you find one then your WP70 is not seeing the DNBX.
 
Make sure that I/A is software bound to the correct ethernet card.
Should be the card in the PCI slot..not the motherboard.
 
Also make sure your day 0 committal was truly a day 0 committal...everything on 
that station marked NOTYET
Look at /usr/fox/sp/IIF.pkg file.  look for NOTYET

Subject: [foxboro] RE-RE-REbuilding a WP70



I/A NT guru needed. 

I have a Dell GX240 WP70, that recently died.  In an attempt to 
resurrect it, we had to do the re-initialize the harddrive.  It then 
boots up as NT4.0 Service Pack 5.  We installed I/A 6.4 Day 0 for NT 
Nodebus and did everything just like the installation manual says (or 
so I think), including loading the correct I/A device drivers.  Long 
and short it will NOT get on the nodebus.  It is connected to a DNBX 
and the DNBX is red-green and stays red-green. Letterbugs are 
OK.  Everything was working before it died.  The IP address is 
correct , based on SYSDEF, but I cannot ping anything on the nodebus, 
nor can anything on the nodebus ping me.  We are stumped. 

Any suggestions, including throwing this paperweight out, are appreciated. 

Regards, 
David
