NetBIOS error (3 posts)

I have a DOS app which uses NetBIOS. It is reporting NetBIOS error 35 "Invalid Adapter Number" when I try to run it on a Compaq DeskPro with Win2000. It works fine on an IBM PC with Win 2000. What is the NetBIOS error about?

Re: NetBIOS error

Firstly WINS is used for resolving NETbios names to IP addresses and reduces broadcast traffic. Netbios name resolution is required for win9x. However, this is not a requirement with win2k.

I have solved this problem

My DOS app was dependant on LANA numbers, and I downloaded a LANA configuration tool from corporate.windowsupdate.microsoft.com which let me fiddle with the numbers so my app would work.
