Abstract

This redbook details OS/2 Warp Server enhancements and emphasizes the integration of Windows 95 and Windows NT Workstation clients in an OS/2 Warp Server environment. We illustrate how to install and configure OS/2 Warp Server clients such as:

o OS/2 Warp 4
o DOS LAN Services for DOS and Windows
o IBM Networks Coordinated Logon Client for Windows NT 4.0
o IBM Networks Primary Logon Client for Windows NT 4.0
o Apple Macintosh

Each platform discussed focuses on file and print services configured for NetBIOS and TCP/IP environments, dynamic TCP/IP, where appropriate, and remote access through the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). The information in this redbook is intended to help network administrators in enabling various clients, such as OS/2 Warp 4, DOS (with or without Windows), Windows 95, Windows NT, and Apple Macintosh, to work with OS/2 Warp Server 4.0. The enhancements made to OS/2 Warp Server since its roll-out in October 1995 are included. This book also provides end users with the knowledge they need in order to work more efficiently with their clients in a networked environment.
