PKTADDR is a small program that you can use to find out the hardware address
of your network board if you have a packet driver loaded for the board. Just
type:

pktaddr 0x60

at the DOS prompt. This assumes that the packet driver is using interrupt 60
hex, which is the most commonly used address. If your network has a BOOTP
server, you can report the hardware address to your network manager so your PC
can be entered in the BOOTP table. This allows MS-DOS Kermit to obtain all
the necessary TCP/IP parameters from the BOOTP server, provided you have told
MS-DOS Kermit (e.g. in your MSCUSTOM.INI file) to SET TCP/IP ADDRESS BOOTP.

    Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

    This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

    But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
