LAN Manager/X V2.0

Version 2.2 and later of LAN Manager/X or Advanced Server for UNIX is compatible with
Version 2.0 as regards the following:

The API of Version 2.0 is a subset of the API of Version 2.2.

Important changes to Version 2.0

The API of Version 2.0 has been extended.

The Targon/31 system is no longer supported.

You are now provided with a suggested name for the server name consisting of the first
nine characters of the host name and the suffix

.srv

instead of

.serve

(e.g.

server1.srv

).

In order to start a UNIX program from the PC, you should now use the command

netrun

(extended MS-DOS client) instead of

uexec

.

In the case of an update installation, the configuration of Versions 2.0 and 2.2 can be
adopted.

Server attributes such as server role, server name etc. can be changed afterwards with
a utility program.

The servers and clients can be located in different subnets.

You can save the entries for installation in a file and carry out the installation at a later
date. This file also makes it possible for you to carry out “automatic installation” – even
on other UNIX systems.

Individual services can be started and stopped.

The command

net version

shows which version of LAN Manager is installed on the

current system.
