- Yea, I'm currently doing this. It's neat and costs about 10 to 13 dB less
- than Novell's product. It took a lot of fiddling around to discover the
- correct pieces to keep but this is the general approach that ended up
- working.
-
- 1) Install LanMan and MS OS/2 1.3.
- 2) Comment out the LanMan related stuff in the CONFIG.SYS file
- 3) Install IBM TCP/IP.
- 4) Uncomment just the server, workstation, and other protocol statements
- in the CONFIG.SYS file. Be sure to keep the IBM NDIS stuff instead of
- the Microsoft NDIS stuff.
- 5) 'Merge' the IBM TCP/IP and LanMan PROTOCOL.INI files.
- 6) In STARTUP.CMD I start the LanMan stuff before the TCP/IP stuff.
-
- I know this is a little general, especially the part about merging the
- PROTOCOL.INI files. If anyone is interested I'd be happy to send along
- or post my CONFIG.SYS and PROTOCOL.INI files. So far almost everything
- has been real stable and worked real well. Our LanMan server now supports
- ftp access and acts as an NFS server for our Suns. The one piece I
- haven't gotten working yet is LPD.
-
- I archive LanMan related utilities and documents on the LanMan server,
- "lanman.gatech.edu". The programmers libraries are there as well as a
- number of issues of Microsoft NetNews. I'd be interested in more LanMan
- related utilities. Contibutions can be put in the UPLOADS section.
