MEMORY OPTIMIZATION

Optimizing Your Workstation’s Memory for Foray PPP Client

If you are not running a memory manager and your workstation produces 
"insufficient memory" messages when you execute programs, you can 
edit your workstation’s configuration files to make your pc’s use 
of memory more efficient.

If  you do not have enough memory to run your DOS editor, you must 
unload some files from memory before you begin.  We suggest that 
unloading two files,  VLM.EXE  and IPXODI.COM,  from conventional 
memory will help solve this problem.  

To unload these files from conventional memory, type the name of 
each file, a space and a "u"  at the DOS prompt:

c:\>vlm.exe u

c:\>ipxodi.com u

-----------------

Editing Your CONFIG.SYS file

In your CONFIG.SYS file, you can add lines which will tell workstation 
to load certain application files "high" or above the level of 
conventional memory.   If you are not already using a memory manager, 
the following lines must be present to allocate memory high: 

dos = high,umb

device = c:\dos\himem.sys

device = c:\dos\emm386.exe noems

To change your memory allocation, follow these steps.

·	Change to your root directory by typing 

        c:

        at the DOS prompt.

·	Open your CONFIG.SYS file with your DOS editor by typing 

        edit config.sys

·	Add the necessary lines to the text.

·	Save your changes.

·	Exit the file.

·	Reboot the machine to effect this change.

-------------------------------------------------

Editing Your AUTOEXEC.BAT file

Once your workstation allocates "high" memory,  you must specify, in 
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, which files you want loaded high.  We suggest 
loading high these files from the Foray PPP Client bundle:  

·	LSL.COM

·	IPXODI.COM

·	VLM.EXE

·	NETX.EXE.

Please note that attempting to load EWPPP.EXE  high does not 
improve use of memory on your workstation.

To load files into high memory, edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT in the 
following way: 

·	Change to your root directory by typing 

        c:

        at the DOS prompt.

·	Open your AUTOEXEC.BAT file with your DOS editor by typing 

        edit autoexec.bat.

·	Find each program file listed above.

·	Insert the load high command and a space in front of the program 
        file you want to load high.  For example, when you find the 
        program file

        c:\foray\lsl.com

        change the syntax to

        lh c:\foray\lsl.com

·	Save your changes.

·	Exit the file.

·	Reboot the machine to effect this change.

--------------------------------------------------

Editing Your NET.CFG file

If editing your CONFIG.SYS  and AUTOEXEC.BAT does not free up enough 
conventional memory, you can also edit NET.CFG.   We suggest that you find 
the Netware DOS Requester section of this file and add two lines to it:

load low conn = off

load low ipxncp = off 

These lines will load IP and IPX stacks into high memo

To edit your NET.CFG file, follow these steps.

·	Change to the directory in which your active NET.CFG file resides.  
        If you have not installed Novell before using the Foray PPP Client, 
        the NET.CFG will be in your FORAY directory.

·	Open your NET.CFG file with your DOS editor by typing 

        edit net.cfg

·	Find the Netware DOS Requester section in the file. 

·	Add the following lines under the Netware DOS Requester heading:

        load low conn = off

        load low ipxncp = off 

·	Save your changes.

·	Exit the file.

·	Reboot the machine to effect this change.

--------------------------------------------------

Tips for Configuring Your Workstation

·	IFSHLP.SYS is a device driver that is needed for Microsoft Networking 
        under Windows for Workgroups  (but not in Windows 3.1). When the user 
        runs Network Setup, Network Setup fails to install IFSHLP.SYS in some 
        circumstances.  You are missing this file in your CONFIG.SYS, if you 
        receive the following message in a dialogue box:

        "The Windows for Workgroups network was not started.  Check your 
        configuration, or run Setup again to set up Windows for Workgroups 
        properly.  The Windows for Workgroups network driver was unable to load."

·	To add IFSHELP.SYS to your CONFIG.SYS file, open the CONFIG.SYS with 
        your DOS editor and add the following line at the bottom of the file text:

        device = c:\windows\ifshelp.sys

·	Reboot the machine to effect this change.
