I'm having one heck of a time getting the network to run in virtual pc. I'm having so many different errors on so many different things, it's amazing. The problem is i'm trying to network DOS 6.22 in Virtual PC, which uses a DEC 21140, so I can use Arachne to get on the internet. I fiddled with the setup INI to get the DEC driver in, and installed the Network Client for MS-DOS. So many problems are coming up, I can't even list them all. It's ridiculous. Can someone here tell me how to set up networking under DOS 6.22 in Virtual PC?

Ahem, Arachne does not need and will not work with NDIS Drivers or Network Client 3 various differing protocol drivers.

All you need is a TCP/IP Packet Driver at 0X60, and during setup Arachne will locate this. Packet drivers can be manually loaded or auto started thru AUTOEXEC.BAT.

Packet Driver is here:

PLEASE NOTE ABOVE INFO IS IN REGARDS TO STANDALONE INSTALL OF MS-DOS 6.22
