2.7.5 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.
