You also need to add the following entries in the WIN.INI file of each workstation: 

   [Wnap]
   WBinPath=(SNA Server client root directory, where *.EXEs are located)
   Remote=(For NetWare, this must be set to the domain name where SNA
      Server is running. For LAN Manager/Windows for Workgroups, this is
      optional, though must be set to the SNA Server machine name if the
      client is located in a different domain than the server, or is
      located remotely from the server).
   NosType=(Type of Network)  [ LANMAN | NETWARE ]
   NosSetup=(Type of client)  [ LANMAN | WFW | NETWARE ]
