============================================================ ============================================================ Section 3.8 Configuring HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS and HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS for NetWare Introduction This section explains how to order PC hardware and software to run HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS (D1811B) and HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS for NetWare (D1819A). HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS and HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS for NetWare products provide Network Services for DOS clients. Network Services includes the following functionality: * Terminal Access to an HP 3000 (VT) * Network File Transfer (NFT) * The ability to run NetIPC applications like HP NewWave Office Applications * The ability to run Berkeley Sockets applications. HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS provides these services for LAN Manager Clients or standalone users. HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS for NetWare provides these services on a NetWare Client PC without having to reboot. Both products support the DOS environment as well as the new Windows 3.0 and HP NewWave 3.0 environments in all three modes. HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS (D1811B) is compatible with HP LAN Manager for OS/2 and MS-DOS, MicroSoft LAN Manager 2.1 and with HP LAN Manager/X. There is no HP Network Services 2.1 support for OS/2 clients at this time. Summary A DOS HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS Client must be configured as follows: Platform Recommended From the supported list in Appndx B Minimum Required Same Memory Recommended 640 KB Minimum Required 512 K plus memory needed for terminal emulator Disk Recommended Hard disk and a 1.2 MB floppy Minimum Required any floppy (see note 1 below) Operating System Recommended DOS v 3.1 or later Minimum Required Same Links Recommended One of the supported links shown in Appendix B Minimum Required Same Networking Software Recommended HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS (see note 2 below) or HP Network Services 2.1 for NetWare Minimum Required Same Terminal Emulation Recommended Any supported Terminal emulation Software (see next page) Minimum Required Same NetWare Client Version Recommended NetWare Version 2.15C or later ( for D1819A only) Minimum Required Same Note (1): NS 2.1 code is shipped on 1.2 MB discs - instructions are provided which detail the process for copying these discs onto 360KB discs. Note (2): Existing HP LAN Manager 1.0 networks must be upgraded to HP LAN Manager 1.1. Memory DOS Clients running HP Network Services 2.1 or HP Network Services 2.1 for NetWare only (standalone) HP recommends that DOS clients have 640 KB of memory. This allows users to load DOS, the networking software and to run most applications. Less than 640 KB of memory will not leave enough memory for most popular applications. DOS Clients running HP Network Services 2.1 or HP Network Services 2.1 for NetWare and HP LAN Manager HP recommends that DOS clients running HP LAN Manager 1.1 and HP Network Services 2.1 services have a minimum of 640KB of memory. The 640KB memory limit may be pressed when using certain applications (such as HP NewWave Office applications and Advancelink with graphics). Customers who want to run these kinds of large applications can do the following: * use EMS memory * use the Demand Load feature to make the HP Network Services 2.1 services transient. (note: The Demand Load feature is not supported in Windows 3.0 enhanced mode). For DOS clients with 1MB or more of memory, 3rd party memory managers may be used to free even more conventional (0-640 KB) memory for applications. Terminal Emulators Supported Users must also have terminal emulation software. They may choose from the following terminal emulators: - HP AdvanceLink for DOS (68333F, 68333L) - HP AdvanceLink for Windows (D2104A, D2114A, D2124A) (version A.03.00 or later) - HP AdvanceLink for NewWave - or compatible third party product The following table shows which host services are available on which hosts: NFT from a DOS client running HP Network Services 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - Yes To HP 9000 Host - Yes To DEC VAX Host - NO NFT from a LAN Manager 1.1 DOS Client running NS 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - Yes To HP 9000 Host - Yes To DEC VAX Host - NO HP Block Mode VT from a DOS client running HP Network Services 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - NO To HP 9000 Host - NO To DEC VAX Host - NO HP Block Mode VT from a LAN Manager 1.1 DOS Client running NS 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - NO To HP 9000 Host - NO To DEC VAX Host - NO NetIPC from a DOS client running HP Network Services 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - Yes To HP 9000 Host - Yes To DEC VAX Host - NO NetIPC from a LAN Manager 1.1 DOS Client running NS 2.1 To HP 3000 Host - Yes To HP 1000 Host - Yes To HP 9000 Host - Yes To DEC VAX Host - NO Compatible Software Versions - NetWare Version 2.15C or later (for HP Network Services 2.1/MS-DOS for NetWare) - LAN Manager client version 1.1 - HP ARPA Services 2.0 or later - Windows 3.1 - Microsoft LM 2.1 - Users who have a need to use HP's PC networking products with Microsoft Windows must use the Microsoft Windows 3.00a version.
