Introduction to Advanced Server for UNIX

Compatibility

i

The RFC 1001/2 implementation (NetBIOS™ on TCP/IP) is the basis for communication with the server system.

The MS LAN Manager OS/2 products referred to above are only available for OS/2 V1.x.

If you are using the client with MS LAN Manager V2.0, you must set up the TCP/IP communication software with the Siemens product LAN1 Vx.

The product MS LAN Manager provides TCP/IP with Version 2.1 and later; with this product you have the option (e.g. if you want to implement an emulation in parallel) of incorporating the product LAN1 Vx.

The product LAN1 is not supplied with Advanced Server for UNIX.

The commands referred to, i.e. udir, uren, and uchmod, cannot be used on all clients. In this case you should use the corresponding UNIX commands.

2.7.2 Role of the server

You can install Advanced Server for UNIX and LAN Manager/X in a domain with Windows NT servers. Only one Advanced Server for UNIX or Windows NT server can be installed as a primary domain controller in a single domain. LAN Manager/X servers cannot take on the server role of primary domain controller.

i

The server roles of member server and standalone server have been omitted from Advanced Server for UNIX.

2.7.3 Server hardware

Advanced Server for UNIX can be operated via any network with TCP/IP capability, e.g. via Ethernet® or Token Ring™.
