The Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows for Workgroups (WFWTCP.EXE) includes the NDIS 2 protocol stack to support connecting computers running Windows for Workgroups together or computers running Windows for Workgroups to Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server using the TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows for Workgroups does not include any TCP/IP utilities; however, support for the Windows Sockets Interface is provided, which allows any Windows Sockets-compatible TCP/IP utility (including terminal emulators and file transfer software) to be used.
NOTE: See the READTCP!.TXT file for initial installation instructions and the included MSTCPIP.HLP file for detailed installation instructions with Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
The Microsoft TCP/IP-32 version 3.11b (TCP32B.EXE) is the latest update to the TCP/IP-32 stack for Windows for Workgroups 3.11. It has been updated since version 3.11a and includes a number of fixes, primarily to provide compatibility with several third-party WinSock applications, and to correct problems with using DNS to resolve NetBIOS names. This also has updated code related to Windows 95. This update is a complete refresh of TCP/IP-32 (WFWT32.EXE) and contains all components of the product.
This product is compatible with and supported exclusively on Windows for Workgroups version 3.11. If you are running a different TCP/IP product on your computer, you must remove it before installing Microsoft TCP/IP-32. For information on this TCP/IP-32 Update, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

TITLE : UPDATE.TXT: TCP/IP-32 3.11b for Windows for Workgroups
Microsoft Data Link Control (DLC) Protocol for Windows for Workgroups (WFWDLC.EXE) includes the NDIS 2 protocol stack that allows computers running Windows for Workgroups to operate in IBM SNA environments and to connect to mainframes and minicomputers, such as the AS/400. The DLC interface is most commonly used by 3270 terminal emulators to communicate to IBM mainframes. Support of these emulators is the main role of the Microsoft DLC protocol. Products from companies such as DCA, Attachmate, IBM, Microcom, and Wall Data support the Microsoft DLC protocol.
NOTE: See the READDLC!.TXT file for initial installation instructions and the included MSDLC.HLP file for detailed installation instructions with Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
