I have done a An upgrade on term2 which was working on 98SE and did an upgrade to Win 2000....it worked fine but when i did a clean win 2000 install....I was able to get the terminal installed but during start up it would say:

Failed to register station name, error 0x23

after doing some research on these forums, it seems the problem is that aloha cannot reset the network card.

Any help would great.
Aloha 4.252
 
It's your LANA number. Aloha will respond only on LANA number 0 (newer versions work with 0 and 1)

Aloha CD includes a utility called LANACFG.EXE which is a command line utility.

Run "LANACFG showlanapaths" and press enter. You will see a list of your NICs and protocols. You need to know if you are running over TCP/IP or NetBEUI. Find the entry that says something like "Local Area Connection 1 -> TCP/IP" and see what the LANA number is for the entry. For the sake of the argument, let's say it was 4

Do "LANACFG setlananumber 4 0"
Do "LANACFG rewritelanainfo" and reboot the computer.
 
My experience is that the wrong lana does not result in that error- that's usually when your TCP is set with no address (set to DHCP w/ no IP) or when some network cards have the wrong drivers, or even on some cards when the cable is unplugged.

Usually the wrong lana number will just count.

Wouldn't bet my life either way, but check out those possibilities too.
 
- Assign specific IP address to your Ethernet Adapter (i.e. 192.168.1.100)

- If you don't have network cable plugged into ethernet (and switch at the other side), run Regedit via Start -> Run and add this DWORD variable into:
HKLM -> System -> CurrentControlSet -> Services -> TCP/IP -> Parameter -> DisableDHCPMediaSense = 1
