WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: FYI:
A customer was using the AT&T Starlan Network V.3.3b. When he entered WordPerfect, he received Disk Error 58. After the customer changed the PROMPT statement in the AUTOEXEC.BAT back to the normal PROMPT=$P$G, the problem disappeared.

Another customer got this error while trying to save or print a file on a 3Com 3+ Open network. This customer edited the LANMAN.INI file on the file server and changed the value of AUTO DISCONNECT to -1. This prevented the file server from dropping the workstation's connection because of inactivity or idle time.

A Disk Error 58 error message can occur on other networks as well. A Disk Error 58 occurs when an application makes a request to the file server, and either the file server does not respond or the response from the file server is incorrect. The exact definition of a Disk Error 58 according to the IBM Technical Reference Manual is "Incorrect response from network."
