Using an OS/2 LAN Server with Windows for Workgroups

To set up Windows for Workgroups on an OS/2 LAN Server, follow
these steps:

1

Make sure you have an account on the OS/2 LAN server. Make sure that NETBEUI is
loaded and functioning.

If you are not sure, ask your system administrator.

2

Open the Main group, double-click the Control Panel icon, and then double-click the
Network icon.

3

In the box labeled Workgroups, assign your computer to the same workgroup that
contains the OS/2 LAN Server.

If you wish, add your user name on the LAN Server in the box labeled
Default Logon.

4

Restart the PC.

Next time you start Windows, you can log on using the user name assigned to
you in the OS/2 LAN Server group.
