Hi,

is there a possibility to connect a OS/2 (do you remember? ;-) as client at
OES2SP1 (Linux, there is no IPX-Protocol) to use file and print services?

As i know support for OS/2 was discontinued with the release of NW5?

TiA

Bernd

I'm guessing if you could even find a "NetWare" client for OS/2 it would
be for IPX. If you can connect to CIFS I would say your best bet is to
use CIFS in order to share files from OES2 SP1 to OS/2. I'm not sure if
there's any way to access printers, though.
