  55. OVERVIEW  DESCRIPTION                                                           
  56.           MPTS/2 TRANSPORT PROVIDED FOR ENTRY AND ADVANCED SERVERS              
  57.           LAN Server 4.0 is supported by a significantly enhanced               
  58.           communications subsystem known as "MPTS -- AnyNet (TM) for OS/2".     
  59.                                                                                 
  60.

  63.                                                                                 
  64.                                                                                 
  65.           MPTS stands for Multi-Protocol Transport Services, and AnyNet denotes 
  66.           its conformity to the MultiProtocol Transport Networking (MPTN)       
  67.           architecture which is IBM's framework for solving the challenges of   
  68.           multiple disparate networks within or between organizations.          
  69.                  MPTS 1.1 consists of four parts:  CID utilities, adapter       
  70.           drivers, protocol support, and Multi-protocol (AnyNet) support.       
  71.           These are a compatible superset of the Network Transport Services     
  72.           (NTS/2) contained in LAN Server 3.0; and all programs written to this 
  73.           previous level can be carried to the version 4.0 environment without  
  74.           modification if desired.                                              
  75.                  CID utilities allow enabled programs (such as LAN              
  76.           Server/Requester) to be centrally configured and remotely installed   
  77.           across a LAN by an administrator.  This is the same support as        
  78.           offered under LAN Server 3.0, with a completely revised publication   
  79.           to reflect the latest environment.                                    
  80.                  Adapter driver support has been extended to include the        
  81.           LANStreamer (TM) and the IBM EtherStreamer (TM) drivers for both      
  82.           single and dual port allowing access to the power of these latest IBM 
  83.           LAN adapters.  Other vendors adapters certified for conformity to the 
  84.           NDIS interface are supported either with drivers shipped with the     
  85.           transport or provided by the vendor.  In addition, the IBM PCMCIA     
  86.           Token-Ring and Ethernet Adapters 2 are supported, so that itinerant   
  87.           or intermittent PC users can use the LAN, then remove the PCMCIA card 
  88.           while they use their PC for other purposes or travel; and finally     
  89.           plug in again without rebooting.  For a full list of adapters         
  90.           supported, refer to the list in the COMPATIBILITY section.            
  91.                  The NetBIOS protocol continues to be available.  The BSD 4.3   
  92.           Sockets API and associated TCP/IP protocol has been added for users   
  93.           who want to use the many public domain applications available or who  
  94.           wish to gradually migrate to TCP/IP networks.  New applications may   
  95.           be written to this 32-bit Sockets API and used natively on TCP/IP or  
  96.           NetBIOS networks, both LANs and WANs.                                 
  97.                  Non-native protocol support is available in two areas: Sockets 
  98.           (TCP/IP applications) over NetBIOS and also NetBIOS NCB over TCP/IP.  
  99.           The former allows users to begin developing TCP/IP applications for   
  100.           future use with NetBIOS LANs.  This conforms with IBM LAN Systems     
  101.           direction to encourage the use of Sockets as the communications API   
  102.           of choice and to facilitate the use of resulting applications across  
  103.           LANs and selected WANs. Refer to the LIMITATIONS section for details. 
  104.                  The latter, which conforms to Internet's Request for Comment   
  105.           (RFC) 1001/1002, allows the use of NetBIOS applications -- including  
  106.           the LAN Server and OS/2 Requesters -- over TCP/IP.  Users can change  
  107.           the LANs to TCP/IP and link them to a TCP/IP WAN and run LAN          
  108.           Server/Requester across the combined network, as well as other legacy 
  109.           NetBIOS and new Sockets applications.  Enhancements have been made to 
  110.           contain the NetBIOS broadcasts on the LAN to manageable proportions.  
  111.                  The APIs and protocol stacks are mutually compatible in the    
  112.           sense that both may be present together in either server or client.   
  113.           With this combination, clients may  access the local server using the 
  114.           higher speed obtainable with NetBIOS, and remote servers across the   
  115.           WAN using the routing capability of TCP/IP -- "the best of both       
  116.           worlds".

  126.           LAN SERVER 4.0-ENTRY                                                  
  127.           SIMPLIFIED LAN MANUALS:  Up and Running -- The manuals previously     
  128.           shipped with LAN Server have been made easily accessible on line.  A  
  129.           newly designed book,"Up and Running", has been included, to provide   
  130.           answers to more than 80% of the questions encountered within the      
  131.           first 90 days during the installation and administration of LAN       
  132.           Server 4.0.  The redesigned documentation reduces the support         
  133.           requirements of installation.                                         
  134.                  Seamless Install -- This treats the installation, as well as   
  135.           upgrades from previous versions of LAN Servers or requesters and the  
  136.           associated installation of LAN protocol drivers, as a common install  
  137.           procedure.  This reduces the complexity of the installation and       
  138.           reduces the amount of time necessary to install a server or           
  139.           requester.                                                            
  140.                  Auto Configuration -- A configuration scenario provides a      
  141.           default configuration that can be modified after the installation     
  142.           procedure is completed for more advanced users.  This reduces the     
  143.           complexity of installation and allows LAN Server 4.0-Entry to be      
  144.           installed without any LAN knowledge.                                  
  145.                  Adapter Autosense -- The seamless installation program detects 
  146.           the LAN adapter card installed on the machine and selects the correct 
  147.           drivers if available.  More adapters than ever are supported in LAN   
  148.           Server 4.0.  This function eliminates the need to physically identify 
  149.           the LAN adapter installed in the server or client machines, and       
  150.           allows LAN Server 4.0-Entry to be installed without any hardware      
  151.           knowledge.                                                            
  152.                  Network SignON Coordinator/2 -- NSC/2 provides any DOS and     
  153.           OS/2 requesters a simple method of logging on to a variety of systems 
  154.           and keeping passwords synchronized across multiple locally-attached   
  155.           workstations and central site hosts.  Users can log on to/log off     
  156.           from/change passwords on a variety of systems at once by using any    
  157.           one of the simple interfaces (graphical, command line, or full        
  158.           screen) to perform these operations.  For additional information,     
  159.           refer to Software Announcement 293-322, dated June 15, 1993.          
  160.                  Object Oriented GUI -- The LAN administration interface to LAN 
  161.           Server has been augmented with a drag and drop interface.  This       
  162.           allows for the creation, change, and deletion of users, groups, and   
  163.           resources and assignments of users or groups to resources.  By using  
  164.           the Workplace Shell (R) paradigm, the GUI interface reduces the time  
  165.           necessary to administer the LAN and simplifies the process so it is   
  166.           natural for non-LAN personnel.                                        
  167.                  TCP/IP -- This version of LAN Server includes OS/2 TCP/IP      
  168.           stacks and TCPBEUI for those users requiring TCP/IP as the network    
  169.           protocol.  Reduced cost and convenience when requiring TCP/IP as LAN  
  170.           protocol.  This implementation has a 200% increase in performance as  
  171.           compared to the previous version of TCP/IP.  While this               
  172.           implementation is not a native TCP/IP implementation it is effective  
  173.           as though it were with a nominal 9-byte IP routing information added  
  174.           to a NetBIOS packet.  This allow LAN Server 4.0 to operate in a

  181.           TCP/IP environment.                                                   
  182.                  32-bit API -- LAN Server APIs have been enabled for 32-bit     
  183.           operation so that no degradation is discovered when interfacing       
  184.           32-bit OS/2 applications.  This allows for full exploitation of       
  185.           OS/2 and LAN Server 32-bit applications.                              
  186.                  REXX API -- A REXX API interface enables the direct access to  
  187.           LAN Server APIs without requiring command line parsing or C language  
  188.           programming as an interface to REXX applications.  REXX allows for a  
  189.           fast and easy interface to LAN Server for the purposes of automating  
  190.           LAN Administration.                                                   
  191.                  Command Line Interface -- The command line interface (CLI) now 
  192.           has full parity with the other LAN Server interface.  Any LAN Server  
  193.           administrative function can now be invoked via any API, or thru the   
  194.           GUI or command line.  This allows for the automation of LAN           
  195.           Administrative tasks by CMD programs.                                 
  196.                  GUI Requesters -- A GUI interface is available for DOS,        
  197.           Windows, and OS/2 requesters to administer user profile management    
  198.           and allow for the connection to server resources.  This simplifies    
  199.           access to server resources by users who traditionally have no LAN     
  200.           knowledge.                                                            
  201.                  DOS Requester enhanced available memory -- DOS clients may     
  202.           have increased available memory for application programs, depending   
  203.           on the configuration.  The increased memory available to DOS          
  204.           workstations increases the variety of applications that can run on a  
  205.           DOS client and takes advantage of shared data offered in a LAN        
  206.           environment.  For more information, refer to PLANNING INFORMATION     
  207.           section under Customer Responsibilities.                              
  208.                  Peer Services -- DOS, Windows, and OS/2 requesters have the    
  209.           ability to informally share local resources with another LAN Server   
  210.           4.0 requester.  This can eliminate the need for additional            
  211.           peer-to-peer software providing similar functions.  The flexibility   
  212.           of LAN Server 4.0 offers the integrity of server maintained data with 
  213.           the flexibility attributed to peer-to-peer sharing of resources.      
  214.                  Networked DDE and Clipboard -- LAN Server 4.0 Windows and OS/2 
  215.           requesters can share data between applications across a LAN using DDE 
  216.           or cut, copy, and paste functions of the application.  This function  
  217.           enhanced productivity by providing a level of collaborative           
  218.           computing.                                                            
  219.                  Upgradeable -- LAN Server 4.0-Entry can be transparently       
  220.           upgraded to LAN Server 4.0-Advanced.  No migration of user data or    
  221.           resources is necessary.  This provides an easy path to LAN Server     
  222.           4.0-Advanced when high performance or Advanced extensions are         
  223.           required.  The pricing model of LAN Server does not penalize the      
  224.           customer when upgrading, since LAN Server Entry and LAN Server        
  225.           Advanced are priced independent of the number of users requiring      
  226.           their services.  Additionally, the ease of migration combined with    
  227.           ease of installation allows LAN Server to grow with your business,    
  228.           with minimal impact on time and money.                                
  229.                  Requester Messaging -- A windowed messaging service is         
  230.           available with LAN Server 4.0 that allows for the creation and

  448.           user's account and logon profiles, but will also erase the home       
  449.           directory.                                                            
  450.           BAD PASSWORD MONITOR:  This program will enhance the security on a    
  451.           server. It automatically revokes a user account when the limit of     
  452.           logon attempts has been made with bad passwords.                      
  453.           FORCE LOGOFF:  This forces all users to disconnect from a server.     
  454.           EXTERNAL ALIAS MIGRATION:  This program migrates external alias       
  455.           definitions to cross-domain aliases (share-at-admin request aliases   
  456.           that refer to a server on another domain) and allows creation of an   
  457.           external alias in a LS 4.0 domain as a workaround for people who      
  458.           still need certain external alias functions, and where LS 4.0 doesn't

  1419.           Network Administrators can also use the following system wide         
  1420.           settings to control the use of passwords:                             
  1421.           o   Minimum password length -- specifies the required number of       
  1422.               characters.                                                       
  1423.           o   Maximum password age -- forces users to change their passwords at 
  1424.               specified intervals.                                              
  1425.           o   Minimum password age -- stops users from altering their passwords 
  1426.               until a specified interval has passed.                            
  1427.           o   Unique password history -- ensures that a password chosen by a    
  1428.               user is different from as many as eight of the user's previous    
  1429.               passwords.                                                        
  1430.                  Once a user is logged on to a domain, the user's access to a   
  1431.           given resource is controlled by the access control profile for that   
  1432.           given resource.  The permissions which follow can be specified in an  
  1433.           access control profile allowing flexibility in that combinations of   
  1434.           appropriate permissions may be constructed to give very specific      
  1435.           control to a user:                                                    
  1436.           None           =  No access to the resource.                          
  1437.           Execute        =  Use the resource (an application                    
  1438.                               program), but not able to copy                    
  1439.                               to your diskette or hard disk.

  1442.           Create         =  Create a file or directory.                         
  1443.           Delete         =  Delete a file or directory.                         
  1444.           Attribute      =  Change the attributes of a file.                    
  1445.           Permission     =  Gives a User the ability to                         
  1446.                               grant other users access to                       
  1447.                               this resource.                                    
  1448.                  By default, all resources are protected.  A network            
  1449.           administrator can grant permissions to groups as well as individual

  1458.           group inherit the permissions previously given to the group.  An      
  1459.           administrator can effectively manage the resources in the network by  
  1460.           using a combination of group designations and permissions.            
  1461.                  There are several facilities available to secure an OS/2 LAN   
  1462.           Server which may not be locked away in a room of its own.  The PS/2   
  1463.           hardware provides a power-on password facility which disables the     
  1464.           machines on startup until the correct password is provided.  Another  
  1465.           password facility allows the locking of the keyboard for those times  
  1466.           when the operator is temporarily away.  A Server Mode function is     
  1467.           also available which automatically disables input at startup but      
  1468.           allows the machine to come to full readiness without operator         
  1469.           interaction.  The 386 High Performance File System (HPFS) provides    
  1470.           file protection against unauthorized access to any server file.  This 
  1471.           protection can not be evaded by rebooting the server and is           
  1472.           functional even when the LAN Server code is not running.  This        
  1473.           protection applies to all files stored on the 386 HPFS file           
  1474.           partition.  386 HPFS is available with the Advanced product only.     
  1475.                  A comprehensive audit trail facility enhances security by      
  1476.           enabling administrators to keep track of selected server resources.   
  1477.           Any network resource, such as a directory, an individual file, a      
  1478.           named pipe or a printer queue, can be designated for auditing.        
  1479.           Resource auditing can provide data on the type of access-open, close, 
  1480.           read, write, etc., username, accessing workstation, date and time of  
  1481.           occurrence, outcome of access and descriptive information about the   
  1482.           event.  Server auditing can keep track of when the server is started, 
  1483.           stopped, paused, or continued; all logons and logoffs; and all remote 
  1484.           administration connections.  The administrator also has the ability   
  1485.           to audit changes to the user and group account database and to audit  
  1486.           changes to the access control list.                                   
  1487.                  User management is responsible for evaluation, selection, and
