Subj : NETQ problems again

I wanted to try to start into the Visualage for JAVA deal once more. So I
opened up the HELP session on getting started. There is a version of KEYHOST
which can be used to generate digital certificates under your own CA game in
OS/2, I've discovered and I wanna play with it. So that wound me back up
again, sigh, with the NETQ server error an unable to reach port 49213 again.
Long ago and very far away, I got all this thing working, FINALLY, with DHCP
and setting all the hostname and host settings in the CONFIG.SYS file, plus
modifying the DHCPSTRT operations to make it all work.
Since that time, I've gone to a fixed address. I'm guessing that the failure
to start the NETQ server is now related to the difference between DHCP and what
all that dog drags in the door in sequence that satisfies the master of the
house for NETQ.
But where do I start now to unravel all this now that the fixed addressing
scheme is upon us?
A cursory look back at all this notes that my "servername" is different than
"localhost". It also notes in the NETQOS2 directory, that there was a previous
jockeying of switching the "localhost" to "servername" that was involved with
all this mess before.
What would be the effect, now that I'm looking at this all over again from a
different view, of naming my machine "localhost" for a name? Does anyone know
if this would magically solve the whole thing? I never considered that before.
Also!
This box is not on 32 bit TCPIP now. I have the paid-in copy of 32 bit TCP/IP
that I am considering installing on this FP 16 box. Would I be better off to
try to perhaps install the 32 Bit TCP/IP package on in BEFORE I start fooling
around with NETQ and all?
Mikey Dog is sitting on the edge of this huge canyon and looking at
the other side ... sort of like Evil Knevile (sic?), but with a
velocipede built for one and pedal power...
That haunting arpegio is playing in one ear as well! ;)
Advice?
--> Sleep well; OS/2's still awake! ;)
