Subject:  [VOICENWS] TIP: Check your LIBPATH

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++

From: "Peter Koller" <peterDESPAM at DESPAMmanglais.com>

I don't quite know which category to post this in, but it's worth posting 
as there appears to be a fairly common problem with the libpath statement 
in OS/2 Config.sys.

Here is a libpath (shortened) as it was sent to me:-

LIBPATH=C:\OS2\DLL\LIBC06.DLL;C:\OS2\DLL\LIBC061.DLL;C:\OS2\DLL\GCC335.DLL;C:\ECS\DLL\VROBJ.DLL;C:\IBMLAN\NETLIB;C:\MUGLIB\DLL;C:\ECS\DLL;.;C:\O
S2\DLL;

.... in case you can't spot it, there are filenames in there. This won't 
affect OS/2 starting, but expect some strange behaviour!

As I am fairly sure these dll names were not added manually (I have seen 
this happen on my own system), I suggest that all OS/2 users do a little 
regular DIY house maintenance, and check that their libpath statement only 
contains paths to folders, and not filenames!

You could also look on hobbes,

where you will find a number of config editors which can help you maintain 
your config.sys file.
