2.7.4 LAN Manager/X V1.1
Version 2.0 and later of LAN Manager/X or Advanced Server for UNIX are compatible with
Version 1.1 as regards the following:
●The environment variable $xLMX
●The environment variable $LM_HOMEDIR
●The file /etc/rclmx, in which the environment variables are set
●The automatic call of /etc/rclmx from the script /etc/profile
●The utilities

d

os2unix and unix2dos, which can be called under the system path and
under $xLMX/bin
●The programs net and lm, which can be called under

$xLMX/bin
●The script lmx for starting and stopping the server (with the NetBIOS administratio n
program) and the server status display.
Important changes to the previous version for Version 2.0 and later:
●The domain concept is supported.
●You can route the output of the printer spooler to a printer that is connected to a client
(shared client printer).
●The share table and usernames are saved in a different format (if required th is data can
be converted manually for the new version).
●The MS-DOS notation must be used with the command net, for example options may
only be introduced with the character “/”.
●For shared directories, c: must always be specified with the command net share,
e.g. net share sf1=c:/u1/sf1.
●Programs which create LM named pipes must have root authorization.
●LAN Manager/X must be started when creating the LM named pipes.
●Remote systems can be administered from a client with the command net a dmin. For
this purpose, the server name must always be specified e.g.
net admin \\server1 /command
●The prefix net must always be set in the administration shell.
●The configuration file is now called

$xLMX/lanman.ini, and only contains values which
deviate from standard. The program

srvconfig should always be used for viewing or
modification functions. The chapter “Lanman.ini File“ contains a descrip tion of this.
