5.2.6 Code
ServersA simple and powerful tool called LAN CID Utility (LCU) ships as part of Multi-Protocol Transport Services (MPTS) included in OS/2 Warp Server for e-business.
From a software distribution standpoint, MPTS consists of three primary components:
The Adapter and Protocol Services component provides the LAN transport (network communication) subsystem for OS/2 environments. The LCU utility is designed to allow an administrator to chain together a series of CID installations. SrvIFS is actually a small NetBIOS-based file server and requester (THINIFS). This utility provides file redirection in a CID environment, enabling clients to access the code server and, consequently, to install from diskette images.
For complete information on how to set up this feature, please refer to the on-line information (.INF) file The LAN CID Utility Guide, which is part of the product documentation.
