PC ARPA/NS & LAN MANAGER 2.2 CLIENT COMPATIBILITY
This article is a statement regarding support of PC ARPA/NS 2.5 and
LAN Manager 2.2 clients.
The PC ARPA/NS product, J2246A, version C.00.00 (internally known as
PC ARPA/NS 2.5), has been successfully tested with LAN Manager 2.2
clients. However, the C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT file must be checked. A minor
edit of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file might be necessary PRIOR to the
installation of the PC ARPA/NS product.
This is the relevant text from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
@REM ==== LANMAN 2.2 === DO NOT MODIFY BETWEEN THESE LINES === LANMAN 2.2
====
SET PATH=C:\LANMAN.DOS\NETPROG;%PATH%
C:\LANMAN.DOS\DRIVERS\PROTOCOL\tcpip\umb.com
NET START WORKSTATION
LOAD MSDLC
LOAD TCPIP
@REM ==== LANMAN 2.2 === DO NOT MODIFY BETWEEN THESE LINES === LANMAN 2.2
====
If the first and last lines have version 2.1, no edits are necessary.
The PC ARPA/NS product can now be installed.
If the first and last lines have version 2.2, edit the file and change
all 2.2's in the REM statements to 2.1's. Then install the PC ARPA/NS
product. There are no plans, at the current time, to fix the installer.
The following is a matrix of PC ARPA/NS versions and supported
environments:
