Help: Win95 error -908
We've installed IDS 7.30.TC7 on a NT Server (4.0-sp4) and can access
"stores7"
while seated at the NT Server. We've enabled local users to have the
right to "log on locally" to this NT Server. Subsequently, we've
installed "Database Client" on a Windows 95 PC and have used SetNet32 to
set the following (the NT server's name is "nts-5"):
INFORMIXDIR=D:\\INFORMIX
INFORMIXSERVER=arc1
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=nts-5
Servicename = turbo
Protocol = olsoctcp
User Name = informix
When I run Ilogin.exe from the Win95 PC, I get the error:
Database: Sqlcode = -908
Looking up the error code in finderr.exe did not provide me with
sufficient insight to solve the problem. Help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

Check if you have defined the hostname correctly in the hosts file on the
WIN95 clients. Also, check that you added the same port no in the services
file on both win-NT and win95. In addition, try to ping nts-5 from your
clients and vice versa to make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is running
correctly on both sides.
I hope this helps.
