Title: Error Running PING, ARP, or NETSTAT Under 3+Open TCP
Date: 12/5/89

Copyright 3Com Corporation, 1991.  All rights reserved.

When PING, ARP, or NETSTAT is run under 3+Open TCP with DPA, the
following message may appear:  "NMF1005: Need to run nmtsr.exe first."
But if NMTSR.EXE is run, the error message appears: "NET0116 access
failure by NMTSR."

This is because NMTSR.EXE depends on TCPTSR.EXE; therefore,
TCPTSR.EXE should have been loaded before NMTSR.EXE.  To ensure that
the files are loaded in the correct order, you can load them once and
keep them loaded.  Or, you can create a PING.BAT file like the
following:

:begin
echo Loading TCP/IP Protocols...
tcptsr
nmtsr
ping %1
echo Unloading TCP/IP Protocol...
unload
:end

You may need to move the PING.EXE file to the drivers directory so
that the PING.BAT file is the first file referenced by DOS.  The
"ping %1" line in the file can be replaced by another network management
utility if desired.
