`MW Main Help |A# (Adapter Number) What network adapter the node is connected to. On a single adapter system this number will be '0'. |NAME (Node Name) The name typed when LANCHECK was started. The node name is case sensitive, so both joe and JOE could be node names. |NODE NUMBER The node number assigned to an adapter. Every node should have a unique node number. |MINUTES RUNNING How many minutes a node has been active. |STATUS Tells you if a node is active, inactive or local. A local node is the node associated with your computer. |ERROR INDEX What percentage of good transmissions and receives are errors. It is calculated by adding the CRC errors, Alignment errors and bad transmissions then dividing this number by the successful transmissions and receives. This percentage is only a general indicator of the state of your node. It should only be compared against other nodes using the same hardware and software. A more complete status report can be obtained by highlighting a node and pressing return or by pressing the INSert key and typing the name of the node you want a status report on. `SH Status Help The name of the node you are getting the status report from is being displayed at the top of the window. |Adapter Number The network adapter the node is connected to. On a single adapter system this number will be '0'. |Node Number The unique node number assigned to the node. |Software Version The version number of the NETBIOS software a node is running. |TRAFFIC AND ERROR STATISTICS |Minutes Running How many minutes a node has been active. |CRC Errors A hardware generated error associated with corruption of data as it passes through the network. |Alignment Errors A hardware generated error associated with misalignment of data as it is received. |Collisions Collisions result when two or more adapters attempt to access the network simultaneously. |Bad Transmissions The number of unsuccessful transmissions. |Good Transmissions The number of successful transmissions. |Good Receives The number of successful receives. |Retransmissions Number of times a retransmission was made due to an error. |Resource Exhaust Number of times a receive could not be made because there were no receive buffers available. |ADAPTER RESOURCE STATISTICS |NCBs Available How many Network Control Blocks (NCBs) are available. |NCBs Allocated Maximum number of NCBs supported by the adapter as configured by the Reset command. |Max NCBs Possible Maximum number of NCBs the adapter could support. |Active Sessions Number of active sessions. |Sessions Allocated Maximum number of sessions supported by the adapter as configured by the Reset command. |Sessions Possible Maximum number of sessions the adapter can support. |Max Packet Size Maximum size of a session data packet. |Number of Names How many names are present on the local name table. `AW Select Adapter Help If you have multiple adapters installed on your system, you will need to specify which adapter to use to find the requested username. `NS Enter the Node Name Help Enter the node name of the adapter you want to see an adapter status report on. NETBIOS is case sensitive so you MUST enter the node name exactly as it appears in the main window. You can request an adapter status of any node running NETBIOS if you know it's node name. Because you cannot enter ASCII zeros you will be unable to access some nodes. `CE Critical Error Help |Retry the Network, Disk or Device operation Will attempt the operation again. First, check if a floppy door is open or if some other minor problem caused the error. If so, correct the problem and select this option. ~01 |Fail the Network, Disk or Device operation Will cancel the operation in progress and return to the last window. You should then correct any problems or type ESC to exit the window. ~02 |Ignore the error, continue with program The program will continue as though nothing happened. NOTE that the operation will NOT be properly completed and may lead to future errors. Do NOT normally select this option. ~03 |Abort the program and return to DOS immediately Will exit the program immediately. `ZZ THIS MUST BE THE LAST LINE IN THE HELP FILE
