Where is the Entria II /Netstation software?

Hi,

I have a Entria II box that I want to LAN boot GUI from a HPUX 11.11 server. Where can I download the Netstation software? and how do I connect a Entria to the server.

Thanks,
John

Entria II is not supported on HP-UX 11.11. Even if you install an older version of the software (Enware 1 or Enware 2), you may find it difficult to work with this OS. However, if you properly connect and configure the Entria II box, you can make use of the 'text' terminal screen.

You can actually install an older version but you must you the swinstall switch that forces an imcompatible version. The last version of this software was 10.20 but it runs fine on 11.11 because nothing actually runs on the HP-UX box itself. The HP-UX box simply serves as an NFS file server and a bootp server for the X terminal.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

John,

I have a very old 700/RX and recently was able to pull it out of mothballs and get it to boot from a 11.0 server. I am using it as a dumb/serial terminal with some extra X-Windows functionality as a bonus. :-) I prefer the NFS method over TFTP if you have that luxury.

The following site really helped me out with finding the software and also had some good info on the hardware:

Good luck...
