withdrawn! NFS provides cross-platform file and disk sharing across TCP/IP
networks, especially to AIX, Sun Solaris, HP-UX, Linux, and other UNIX
systems. IBM's NFS Kit for OS/2 provides both client and server capabilities
on OS/2 Warp, and resharing of NFS drives lets OS/2 Warp Server act as a
"bridge" between PC LANs and UNIX networks. This affordable kit is available
by ordering IBM part number 65G1255. This kit may be used on any release of
OS/2 Warp provided that the latest NFS service pack is installed. Also, for
best results, the kit should be installed in a separate directory, and that
directory should be listed last in OS/2 Warp's LIBPATH and/or PATH lines in
CONFIG.SYS. (In other words, any files included with TCP/IP Version 3 or
later should take priority over any past release versions of those same files
included with the NFS Kit, a TCP/IP Version 2 product.) IBM's NFS Kit is
compatible with all TCP/IP network connections supported by OS/2 Warp,
including SLIP, PPP, and LAN Distance.
