NIC will not work, but it did work.
I have a client machine that was built and loaded with SCO UNIX 2.1.3, (yes it is old). The machine worked fine on the closed network that I tested on in my shop. I then had to change it to the network that it would be connected to. Below is the host file, router and subnet mask file that I usually change to make it work.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
clt1
IP addresses for all four machines, found in the /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.78.4.71 srv1
10.75.13.75 srv2
10.75.13.76 clt1
10.96.14.100 clt2
Router location is found at /etc/inet/config line 4c.
4c:/usr/sbin/route::y::add default 10.75.13.65 1
Subnet mask is found in /etc/confnet.d/inet/interface, 2nd to last line of the file.
lo:0:localhost:/dev/loop::add_loop:
TCM5X9:0::/dev/TCM5X9_0:netmask 255.255.255.192 -trailers::
ee16:0::/dev/ee16_0:-trailers::
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I run netstat -rn I should see something like this:
Routing tables Destination Gateway Flags Refcnt Use Interface 10.120.10.78 10.120.10.78 UH 0 0 lo0 default 10.120.10.1 UG 3 4549 TCM5X90 10.120.10 10.120.10.78 U 1 822 TCM5X90 # ifconfig -a TCM5X90: flags=23<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS> mtu 1500 inet 10.120.10.78 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 10.120.10.255 lo0: flags=49<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 2048 inet 10.120.10.78 netmask ff000000
But when I run it it only come back with the local host, 127.0.0.1. When you run ping it says "Network Unreachable". The NIC does or did work here before shipping, but I had to test on a closed network.
I must be missing something that needs to be changed.
Thanks for the help,
NC user

eshconfig
ESHCONFIG(8) BSD System Manager's Manual ESHCONFIG(8)
NAME
eshconfig -- configure Essential Communications' HIPPI network interface
SYNOPSIS
eshconfig [-estx] [-b bytes] [-c bytes] [-d filename] [-i usecs] [-m bytes] [-r bytes] [-u filename] [-w bytes] [interface]
DESCRIPTION
eshconfig is used to configure device-specific parameters and download new firmware to the Essential Communications RoadRunner-based HIPPI
network interface. The interface is very sensitive to the DMA performance characteristics of the host, and so requires careful tuning to
achieve reasonable performance. In addition, firmware is likely to change frequently, which necessitates a reasonably easy way to update
that firmware.
Available operands for eshconfig:
-b bytes
Adjust the burst size for read (by NIC of host memory) DMA.
-c bytes
Adjust the burst size for write (by NIC of host memory) DMA.
-d filename
Filename for file to download into NIC firmware. This must be a file in the standard Essential format, with :04 preceding every
line, and a tag line at the end indicating the characteristics of the firmware file.
-e Write data to EEPROM. Normally, setting tuning parameters will only persist until the system is rebooted. Setting this parameter
ensures that the changes will be written to EEPROM.
-i usecs
Interrupt delay in microseconds.
-m bytes
Minimum number of bytes to DMA in one direction (read or write) before allowing a DMA in the other direction. Tuning this prevents
one direction from dominating the flow of bytes, and artificially throttling the NIC.
-r bytes
Bytes before DMA starts for read (from host to NIC). This controls how soon the DMA is triggered; until this many bytes are
requested, the DMA will not begin.
-s Show statistics for the HIPPI NIC. Repeat the option to suppress non-zero statistics.
-t Show current tuning parameters on the host.
-u filename
Name of file to which the NIC firmware should be uploaded. Not currently supported.
-w bytes
Number of bytes required before write (from NIC to host) DMA is started. Until this many bytes are ready to be written, the DMA will
not start.
-x Reset the NIC. This is necessary for the HIPPI-FP support, as ifconfig(8) will no longer physically reset the NIC when the inter-
faces goes up and down.
Only the super-user may modify the configuration of a network interface.
DIAGNOSTICS
Messages indicating the specified interface does not exist or the user is not privileged and tried to alter an interface's configuration.

esh(4), ifconfig(8)
HISTORY
The eshconfig command first appeared in NetBSD 1.4.
