SUMMARY
=======
IBM LAN Server 1.3 and Microsoft LAN Manager must be running the same interface
in order to communicate. Because LAN Manager uses NetBIOS and IBM LAN Server
uses IEEE 802.2 as default, an adjustment must be made to the Communications
Manager configuration file to change the interface to NetBIOS.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The installation process for IBM OS/2 1.3 Communications Manager creates a
configuration file that contains selected Communications Manager features. This
configuration file is called in the following lines in CONFIG.SYS:
device = c:\cmlib\etherdd.sys cfg=c:\cmlib\lclansrv.cfg
-or-
device = c:\cmlib\trnetdd.sys cfg=c:\cmlib\lclansrv.cfg
-or-
device = c:\cmlib\netbdd.sys cfg=c:\cmlib\lclansrv.cfg
To change the interface from 802.2 to NetBIOS, do the following from the GROUP
MAIN screen:
1. Choose Communications Manager.
2. Select Advanced Options-Configuration.
3. Specify the configuration filename (for example, LCLANSRV.CFG).
4. Go to the LAN feature profiles section of configuration file.
5. CHANGE the interface from IEEE 802.2 to NetBIOS.
This will write the changes back to the *.CFG file. Stop the server and
workstation and reboot the server for the changes to take effect.
