I too wish to thank the more knowledgeable for this bit of trivia. I had recently reinstalled with OS/2 Warp Connect w/HPFS and FP17, experiencing the same COMW errors. Thank you! While I'm typing, I'll add something I did to avoid hitting enter on boot up, when I'm not attached to the network. On my system, there were two lines in CONFIG.SYS I commented... REM CALL=D:\OS2\CMD.EXE /Q /C D:\MPTN\BIN\MPTSTART.CMD REM CALL=D:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\NETBIND.EXE This got rid of the "hit enter" when I boot disconnected from the network card. I moved the NETBIND call to the MPTSTART.CMD file, and added a entry on my toolbar to run the MPTSTART.CMD when I needed it. So from home I run slip, and at the office on my Dock II I run MPTSTART.CMD.
