IBM's DOS LAN Requester has been confirmed to work well with Windows 3.0, provided that the following files have been updated with IBM's corrective services (available through IBM): File Date ---- ---- NETAPI.DLL 2/5/90 PMSPL.DLL 5/22/90 WINPOPUP.EXE 5/23/90 Note: The files above should contain those dates or later if they have been corrected. MORE INFORMATION ================ The IBM DOS LAN Requester network (using IBM LAN Server software at the server) was originally released to the public in November of 1989, six months before Windows 3.0 was released. Many LAN Requester network files required updates, including the few listed above, which are critical to Windows. If these update files are not in use, it may be possible to set up your system as MS-NET or 100 percent compatible to get the basic connect and disconnect features available inside of Windows. If all else fails, set up Windows for no network and make all drive and printer attachments before starting Windows.
