I am using memdisk to remotely flash the BIOS and other firmware. It works well for most flash programs. After the flash I need to initialize the NIC to send a signal to my management server that the flash is complete. I am curious as to how others have solved this problem. Thanks.

I am trying to build FreeBSD update, STABLE branch, and buildkernel apparently snagged on ndis, which I don't want to do without. According to "man ndis", I need in kernel config options NDISAPI device ndis device wlan which I have: device wlan # 802.11 support options NDISAPI # This is in the hope of enabling Hiro USB wireless adapter dev...

While I'm aware that tinc is known to have problems with the latest Windows TAP driver (NDIS 6), we want to run tinc on Windows server 2016 which doesn't support NDIS 5 drivers. Since using the old version of the TAP driver is not an option, I'd like to better understand the issues with tinc and the NDIS 6 TAP driver. Can anyone point me to a discussion of the known issues? From...

All - desperate plea for help here. Overview Centos 4.5 Kernel 2.6.9.55.0.9.EL with source dell Latitude 810 Im totally at my wits end... Ive tried like mad to get ndiswrapper to work for my lynksys WPC54GS wireless card. No matter what I try ndis gives some kind of error on installing the module after about a dozen attempts 8 kernels, and 5 days- I finally GAVE UP! unreal So, I install the http://www.linuxant.com/company/ ever$ion (im not above paying $...

Hi Todd, I did some tests with NDIS 6 TAP-Windows about three years ago. The outcome of that was https://github.com/gsliepen/tinc/pull/73/commits/ 0c010ff9fe50b4046b5c7977bafac3e74037f075 It was a long time ago and I don't remember the details, but I remember I was quite confused because I couldn't explain why OpenVPN did no...

Did find a solution to this? I am getting the same relocation errors. It seems rather odd that the relocation errors should refer to the directory that ndis is built in, rather than the one it is installed in. That doesn''t make sense, does it?

Hi, I'll need to buy a new wireless card. I need a recommendation for PCMCIA wireless card that simply works with CentOS out of the box. By "works out of the box", I mean that it doesn't need ndis wrapper (or whatever it is called), kernel hacks, or whatever. Thanks

I would like to implement a replacement MSCDEX driver (based on the replacement in FreeDOS SHSUCDX http://johnson.tmfc.net/freedos/shsucdx.html and SYSLINUX) however instead of talking to disk BIOS calls or PATA chipset I would like it to talk to the NDIS driver and act as a TFTP client simply forfulling application get block requests through TFTP. Its not clear where the ISO9660 CD filesystem is handled, maybe within the existing MSCDEX itself already and BIOS calls are used to get disk blocks from the CDROM unit. If possible I'd like to...

I found the 3Com one, but I'm looking for the intel one. The PXE PDK doesn't have it anymore, and the intel site points me to the proboot.exe archive, which has no *.dos files in it. Does anyone know of other generic drivers for dos that work with memdisk's keeppxe option?

...ram needs Flash, Wine requires an instance installed under Wine. * If a program uses some fonts, Wine requires the fonts to be in Wine's fonts directory and does not use already installed in the system (and Wine's fonts cannot be used by a Linux application) * Windows drivers loaded under NDIS wrapper cannot use Wine's APIs, that's why the functionality of NDIS wrapper is so limited (and Wine cannot load Windows drivers even NDIS-compatible). This leads to doubling in functionality, incompatibilities and limitations. I think Wine should fully utilize the subsystems already provi...

Some version of Windows appear to give the network adapter driver a packet broken up into fairly small pieces, eg Page 0: 14 bytes of Ethernet Header Page 1: 20 bytes of IP Header Page 2: 20 bytes of TCP Header Page 3: 1460 bytes of TCP Data When this happens, Linux appears to not pass the packets beyond the vifX.Y interface - a tcpdump on (say) vif455.0 shows packets but a tcpdump on eth0 does

I would propose it have three categories: FOSS chipsets Native driver but not FOSS chipsets (ie atheros via madwifi) NDIS Wrapper FSF has compiled somewhat of a list at http://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/net/wireless/cards.html but of course, there's no way to know which of the FOSS cards have drivers that are actually in the RHEL/CentOS kernel - and user experiences would also be beneficial for people looking f...

I would like to add that from Windows guest support perspective it makes more sense. To support vsock we most probably need NDIS protocol driver and if it will be binded to NDIS miniport driver (the driver that currently handles virtio-net in Windows) it will make our life much easier. Otherwise we need to ?plug? into NIDS on one hand, and handle transport outside of NDIS on other hand or in some strange way by creating mini...
