NET.CFG Options Reference
NetWare DOS Requester Option
If you are using any application that uses the “netx=off” command, such as
Microsoft Office, ensure that this parameter value is set to “on.”
PB BUFFERS=number
Controls the use of the Packet Burst protocol for file input/output.
Packet Burst is automatically enabled in the NetWare DOS Requester
software.
The values are as follows:
0 = off
nonzero = on and increases the number of buffers.
Setting this option to 0 decreases memory use and, in some cases,
performance.
PBURST READ WINDOWS SIZE=number
Sets the read buffer size (in bytes) for MS Windows.
Syntax
pb buffers=number
Default 3
Range 0 to 10
Modules FIO.VLM, IPXNCP.VLM
Example To disable Packet Burst, you would place the following lines
in your NET.CFG file:
netware dos requester
pb buffers=0
Syntax
pburst read windows size=number
Default 16
Range 3 to 128
Modules FIO.VLM
