2.7.5 LAN Manager/X V2.0
Version 2.2 and later of LAN Manager/X or Advanced Server for UNIX is compatible with
Version 2.0 as regards the following:
●The API of Version 2.0 is a subset of the API of Version 2.2.
Important changes to Version 2.0
●The API of Version 2.0 has been extended.
●The Targon/31 system is no longer supported.
●You are now provided with a suggested name for the server name consisting of the first
nine characters of the host name and the suffix .srv instead of .serve (e.g. server1.sr v).
●In order to start a UNIX program from the PC, you should now use the c ommand netrun
(extended MS-DOS client) instead of uexec.
●In the case of an update installation, the configuration of Versions 2.0 and 2.2 can be
adopted.
●Server attributes such as server role, server name etc. can be changed afterwards with
a utility program.
●The servers and clients can be located in different subnets.
●You can save the entries for installation in a file and carry out the installation at a later
date. This file also makes it possible for you to carry out “automatic installation” – even
on other UNIX systems.
●Individual services can be started and stopped.
●The command net version shows which version of LAN Manager is installed on the
current system.
