Too bad, and too complex to search for the error. Bernd, I just saw the Arachne diskette in VMware running fine. So please check your setup or try boot with a diskette. When your VMware accepts 2.88 images to boot from, grab fd288ara.img from ftp://ftp.veder.com/nwdsk/ This image has all drivers available to NwDsk on board and also some means to check the WATTCP layer on the packet driver (PING, TCPINFO).

I downloaded the imagefile you mentioned, opened it with Winimage 6.3-x64 (yes, WinXP 64bit running here), saved as disk image file (not self-extracting), then set it in Vmware as primary diskette drive. I powered on Vmware guest, and your disk boots and asks me questions. Finally, Arachne complains it cannot get online, even though packet driver found. Too bad, and too complex to search for the error. Network: -Provider -Cable Modem -Router -Gbit switch -Gbit switch -My computer -Vmware guest (bridget network, so gets a network IP from the router) perhaps DNS doesn't get set or so.

[Freedos-user] [Announce] NwDsk Arachne plug 'n play bootflop
A gadget for the FreeDOS internetters: NwDsk-Arachne bootflop: browsing with full packaged Arachne 1.75 from bootflop using NwDsk's generic packet driver layer setup on FreeDOS core. Boot it and see the FreeDOS-homepage appear, nicely rendered by Arachne running from your bootflop. Get Fd16ara.exe from http://www.veder.com/nwdsk/#images On the generic packet driver layer (odipkt on 16-bit ODI nic drivers) of the NwDsk base I loaded the lastest Archne 1.75 (unaltered) from http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/ar175gpl/ NwDsk will autodetect your nic from the 11 widely used nic drivers on diskette and autostart Arachne (without user- intervention if DHCP is installed on your network). When your nic is not recognized run WHAT1632.BAT (included on the diskette) which will show the available drivers for your nic. Get them from http://www.veder.com/nwdsk/#niclist16 (choose only 16-bit ODI drivers !) and put them in place of the current drivers in A:\Lib\Odi16. Run ARACHNE.BAT to rerun Arachne, run SETUP.BAT to force new setup of Arachne.
