January 21, 1994
Product number: 5764-031 V4.0 (P04264)
LAN Automated Distribution/2 (LAD/2) Release 4.0 is now available

distribution and tracking can be performed centrally from the MVS host.

program that allows you to easily install, migrate or remove LAD/2
from your hard disk. Finally, LAD/2 Release 4.0 is capable of handling
