LAN Server 4.0

To configure printers to be shared on the network, login to the LAN Server as admin and verify setup.

Verify the network interface card (NIC) is configured for TCP/IP.

1)Run the Multi-Protocol Transport Services Utility (MPTS).

2)Select CONFIGURE LAN ADAPTERS AND PROTOCOLS.

3)In the CURRENT CONFIGURATION box, there should be an entry for IBM TCP/IP protocol under each appropriate adapter or interface card (NIC).

4)If not, refer to the LAN Server documentation for information on configuring and enabling the TCP/IP protocol stack.

Installation

To install the software utilities:

1)Insert the distribution diskette or CD-ROM into a drive.

2)Open an OS/2 Window.

3)Select the appropriate drive.

4)Type INSTALL and press ENTER.

The INSTALLATION screen will be displayed.

NOTE: When installing from CD-ROM change the default path to d:utils/ps50/lanservr. This path assumes d: is the CD-ROM drive.

5)Choose LAN SERVER.

When the installation is complete the following message will appear:

Installation Completed Successfully.

6)Click EXIT.
