TITLE IBM OS/2 LAN SERVER VERSION 3.0 AND IBM OS/2 LAN SERVER FOR MACINTOSH
VERSION 1.0
ABSTRACT OS/2 (R) LAN Server Version 3.0 Entry and Advanced exploits
the power of the OS/2 2.0 operating system. Included in the Entry
and Advanced versions are redirected install enablement
(Configuration/Installation/Distribution (CID)), Domain Management
API, Peer services, up to 1,000 requesters per server on a single
network, a Thin Client, NTS/2 and TCP/IP coexistence.
The OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 Advanced product also uses the
386 High-Performance File System, has improved disk fault tolerance
and multiprocessor enabling for the PS/2 (R) Server 295.
Available with OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 is a DOS LAN
Requester (DLR) and an OS/2 Requester orderable as distributed
features. The DOS LAN Requester includes the IBM LAN Support Program
Version 1.31 and has performance improvements over the previous DOS
LAN Requester. The OS/2 Requester has been enabled for redirected
install feature, NTS/2 and performance improvements.
The OS/2 LAN Server for Macintosh (1) Version 1.0 broadens the
scope of support for the IBM OS/2 LAN Server products. With OS/2 LAN
Server for Macintosh running on an OS/2 LAN Server, DOS, OS/2 and
Macintosh clients may access files created by each other. The OS/2
LAN Server for Macintosh provides AppleTalk (1) File Server and Print
Server functions (over a token ring or Ethernet) that may be
integrated with the OS/2 LAN Server.
Planned Availability Dates:
o November 20, 1992, for OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 Entry and
Advanced
o January 29, 1993, for OS/2 LAN Server for Macintosh Version 1.0.

OVERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS
o Entry and Advanced Servers exploit the power of OS/2 2.0.
o Redirected install (CID) is enabled.
o OS/2 Requester includes a Thin Client.
o Peer services are included with OS/2 Requester.
o Advanced Server has multiprocessing enabling for IBM PS/2 Server
295.
o The new OS/2 LAN Server for Macintosh provides access to files
and print server functions.
o IBM offers upgrades from competitive LAN software.
DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONALLY: OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 Entry and Advanced share
numerous new features over previous LAN Servers. These features are
as follows:
o Redirected install (CID)
o Peer service
o Up to 1,000 requesters per server on a single network
o Domain Management APIs
o IBM Network Transport Services/2
o Thin Client
o System Management enablement
o DOS LAN Requester Virtual Device Driver
o DOS LAN Requester Support of DOS 5.0 task switching
o DOS LAN Requester Windows DBCS enabled user interface
o DOS LAN Requester performance enhancements
o TCP/IP Co-existence.
OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 Advanced has the following unique
features:
o 386 High-Performance File System
o Improved Disk Fault Tolerance (mirroring and duplexing)
- Re-mirror without format
- Mirror of the boot drive
o IBM PS/2 Server 295 enabled
o Local security.
REDIRECTED INSTALL: The Configuration/Installation/Distribution
(CID) feature of the OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 product enables the
installation of Requesters and Servers in a remote and unattended
manner. Remote installation is a form of redirected install that
supports the loading of code on workstations over the LAN from a
designated code Server. The code Server can use the existing
transport or use Server Installable File System provided by IBM
Network Transport Services/2 and could be either an OS/2 LAN Server
or an OS/2 workstation with a Server Installable File System. This
second option can be achieved by installing:
o Either -- NetView (R) Distribution Manager/2 Version 2.0, which
provides the unattended installation of OS/2 and DOS system and
application software on stand-alone and host-connected LANs. In
host-connected LANs, when used with NetView Distribution Manager
for MVS, the distribution and installation can be initiated from
the host.
o Or -- Network Transport Services/2, which provides the lightly
attended installation of OS/2 software on the LAN.
(R) Registered trademark of International Business Machines
Corporation.
PEER SERVICES: Peer Services is a feature that gives a Requester
file, printer and serial device access to another Requester on the
same LAN. The server need not be present to run.
Peer Service allows the owner to share directories, one
printer queue and one communication-device queue with other users on
the network. It lets one user at a time connect to (that is, create
a session with) the peer. This differs from an OS/2 LAN Server that
allows sessions with multiple requesters. The NET SESSION command is
enhanced to allow users to see who is connected to a server. This
allows a user who is denied access to a peer because of the session
limit to find out who is currently connected to the server.
IBM NETWORK TRANSPORT SERVICES/2 (TM): IBM Network Transport
Services/2 provides programming interfaces (NETBIOS, IEEE 802.2 and
NDISs) necessary for OS/2 2.0 LAN enablement. It also provides the
transport protocols and network adapter software to run network
applications.
Integrated with IBM Network Transport Services/2 is the CID
Utility, which supplies network support, file system redirection and
code server setup for OS/2 2.0-based products.
IBM Network Transport Services/2 enables Novell (2) NetWare
(2) Requester application support providing access to NetWare Servers
through the NDIS interface.
Using IBM Network Transport Services/2, DOS applications
written to the NETBIOS and IEEE 802.2 interfaces on OS/2 2.0 are
supported. This virtual LAN support enables these DOS applications
to share an adapter with other DOS and OS/2 applications.
IBM Network Transport Services/2 provides support for enhanced
multiadapter support. When combined with the support in the OS/2 LAN
Server Version 3.0, up to 1,000 LAN requesters can connect to a LAN
server across multiple adapters on a single network. For more
information on IBM Network Transport Services/2, refer to Programming
Announcement 292-582, dated October 6, 1992.

THIN CLIENT: A Thin Client is an OS/2 LAN Requester without the Full
Screen Interface (FSI) component installed. Often workstations that
are used by general users have no need to perform server
administrator tasks. In this case there is no need for a user to be
required to install the FSI on the hard file. A user logged on at a
Thin Client may load the full-screen interface from a server. This
allows the user to conserve approximately 2.5MB of disk space on his
local machine.
SYSTEM MANAGEMENT ENABLEMENT
FIRST FAILURE SUPPORT TECHNOLOGY/2 (TM) (FFST (TM)/2): The intent is
to migrate the current detection points to FFST/2 (TM). OS/2 LAN
Server Version 3.0 contains software detection points that
interrogate return codes. If an error condition is indicated, an
entry is made in the LAN Error Log. The code will be modified so
that each current detection point will now write the error
information into an FFST/2 structured error log. This will enable
the LAN Server to comply with the standard corporate RAS structure.

PERFORMANCE HOOKS TO SUPPORT PERFVIEW: The OS/2 2.0 supports an
architected performance hook technology and collection mechanism
known as Perfview. The Perfview performance hook types consist of
counters, timers and queues. A set of APIs are supported that allow
applications, device drivers and file system drivers to register
information with the kernel. SPM/2 relies on this capability to
monitor and manage system performance. This allows the administrator
to tune a LAN system.
SNAP DUMP FACILITY: The SNAP DUMP facility enables a customer having
a software problem to easily capture all the related information
requested by the support personnel. This information is typically
dispersed throughout the system and requires many steps to capture
completely. A generic ASCII file will define what should be dumped
and allow the system data to be captured in a single file.
DCDB (DOMAIN CONTROL DATABASE) ACCESS VIA REMOTE API: This allows
application developers to use published interfaces to manipulate user
information on the Domain Controller, facilitating in the migration
of the LAN Server into the DCE environment. It also allows an
application developer to create system management tools.
DOS LAN REQUESTER VIRTUAL DEVICE DRIVER: The DOS LAN Requester
Virtual Device Driver enables DOS applications running in the Virtual
DOS Machine environments (including WIN-OS/2 (TM)) of OS/2 2.0 to
call the LAN APIs without having to load the DOS LAN Requester code.
(TM) Trademark of International Business Machines Corporation.
DOS LAN REQUESTER SUPPORT OF DOS 5.0 TASK SWITCHING: One of the
features of the IBM DOS Shell is the ability to run two or more
programs at one time. A limited (Suspend/Resume) application task
switcher called Task Swapper is provided in the shell that allows the
customer to switch from one application to another without closing
applications. The DOS LAN Requester supports this application task
swapping.
The Active Task List displays the names of programs that have
been started. Programs are added to the Active Task List by starting
the program from the IBM DOS Shell. Switching to active programs is
done through the Active Task List or by cycling through the programs
in the Active Task List using the ALT and TAB keys. To remove a
program from the Active Task List, the user must quit the program.
TCP/IP CO-EXISTENCE: The LAN Server Version 3.0 product can co-exist
with the existing IBM TCP/IP product. In addition, the LAN Server
will be able to use the IP network to communicate. In this
environment, both the server and requester will be required to use
the IP protocol provided by the TCP/IP for OS/2 and NETBIOS for
TCP/IP products from IBM.
The current release of TCP/IP from IBM shares the common LAN
Adapter and Protocol Support with the LAN Server. In the past,
customers have used this support provided by the NETBIOS for TCP/IP
program with the IBM TCP/IP program. In this release, the
environment is supported.
NETBIOS is a programming interface used in a large inventory
of PC-based LAN customer application programs. TCP/IP is a
networking protocol used in LAN and wide area networks (WANs) to
facilitate communications among heterogeneous, multivendor system
environments. The TCP/IP protocol has standards defined,
specifically request for comments (RFC) 1001 and RFC 1002, which
provide the ability to encapsulate NETBIOS application traffic and
send it over the TCP/IP network.
Installation of this module onto the workstation effectively
replaces the native NETBIOS module normally used for
NETBIOS-to-NETBIOS traffic on the LAN. Therefore, once installed,
only the TCP/IP path will be used for communication.
NOTE: Remote IPL is not supported in this environment.
FEATURES UNIQUE TO THE ADVANCED SERVER: The Advanced product runs on
an OS/2 2.0 operating system and is a highly optimized network server
designed for advanced 386/486 based platforms with very large hard
files. It consists of an optimized Ring 0 Server tightly coupled
with a bootable installable High Performance File System (386 HPFS)
and customized device drivers to accelerate network file I/O.
The Local Security feature of the 386 High Performance File
System (HPFS) provides file protection against unauthorized access to
any Server file. This protection cannot be evaded by rebooting the
Server and is functional even when the LAN Server code is not
running. This protection applies to all files stored on the 386 HPFS
file partition.
Fault Tolerance now provides two new key features, re-mirror
without format and the capability to mirror the boot drive.
Re-mirror without format simplifies the recovery of a detached
secondary drive. The process is as simple as using the FTSETUP
program to recover the drive and re-booting the system, saving time
and steps required to backup and restore the complete drive.
ADMINISTRATION
SINGLE SYSTEM IMAGE: A domain is the logical grouping of one or more
servers in a LAN. This grouping is referred to as a DOMAIN and is
defined by a Network Administrator. This association allows a user
to log on to a domain and gain access to resources on the individual
servers. Once logged on, Single Systems Image allows the user to
view both local and remote resources as if the resources were all
part of the local workstation.
REMOTE ADMINISTRATION: The Network Administrator can perform
administrative tasks on a given domain from an OS/2 Requester on the
LAN. The Network Administrator creates and maintains the domain
definitions centrally stored in the Domain Control Database on the
Domain Controller, a role given to one of the servers in the domain
at server installation time.
SERVER MONITORING: Extensive capabilities allow the Network
Administrator to determine the status of server resources, list
utilization statistics, view error logs, identify logged on users,
monitor attempts to logon with an invalid password or invalid
attempts to access resources, receive alerts (informative messages)
when events of interest occur. The product provides not only
security related information but also diagnostic and resource usage
information to the Network Administrator.
OPERATORS: There are three basic user types: user, guest and
administrator. A user can access LAN resources as defined by the
Administrator. The guest is a special user type that enables user
IDs not explicitly defined in the domain to have access to a
specified set of LAN resources. The administrator type is the
network administrator and has overall control of Domains on the LAN.
The administrator can delegate management of any of the following
areas to an Operator (for example, any user ID) by specifying (via
the /operator parameter of the NET USER command) the appropriate
sub-level of authority:
o Server
Lets a user control shared resources on a server, read and
clear the error log, and close sessions and files that are
open. User control is through the command line interface.
o Accounts
Lets a user control user and group accounts (for example,
add, delete and modify user accounts, and update logon
requirements for the user accounts database). This operator
privilege does not allow a user to grant administrative
privilege or assign operator privilege. User control is
through the command line interface and/or User Profile
Management.
o Print Queues
Lets a user control shared printer queues and control print
jobs. User control is through the command line interface
and/or Print Manager.
o Communications Queues
Lets a user control shared serial communication devices.
User control is through the command line interface.
TIME SOURCE: This feature allows a domain controller to be
designated as the network time server. This function provides for
use by applications that need to synchronize their time with a
designated time source server. A bit is set (SV_TYPE_TIME_SOURCE)
that identifies a Server as the time source. This bit can be queried
through use of either the NetServerEnum or NetServerGetInfo APIs.
NetServerEnum2 can be used to obtain a list of the time servers in up
to four other domains by specifying these domains on the OTHDOMAINS
line in the IBMLAN.INI or in the /OTHDOMAINS parameter on NET START
REQUESTER. NetRemoteTOD can be used to obtain the time/date
information from the time server.
INSTALLATION
OS/2 (SERVER/REQUESTER): A Presentation Manager (R) application will
provide the capability to install, configure, and remove the LAN
Server and OS/2 Requester on all supported hardware platforms.
Installation of the LAN Server Version 3.0 product requires an
OS/2 2.0 operating system.
(R) Registered trademark of International Business Machines
Corporation.
DOS LAN REQUESTER: An installation program is also provided for the
installation of the DOS LAN Requester.
REPLICATOR SERVICE: The LAN Server provides a powerful Replicator
service that helps make network administration easier and more
efficient. This service enables a set of files stored on one server
to be selectively replicated to other servers or OS/2 requesters on
the network. Replication can be used to distribute any
administrative or application-related files.
UPS SUPPORT: The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) support provides
warning and orderly server shutdown facilities when used with a
compatible uninterruptible power supply available from a variety of
vendors. The power supply signals the software through the serial
port.
DISK MIRRORING AND DUPLEXING: Disk Mirroring enables the duplication
of data on another drive attached to the same disk controller. Disk
Duplexing enables this duplication on a drive attached to another
disk controller. This feature also provides error logging, alerting
and monitoring of disk activity in a mirrored, duplexed, or standard
server disk subsystem. Both mirroring and duplexing are available
with the Advanced product only. This is in addition to the HOTFIX
service available on all three products, which provides for an
automatic attempt to recover from an initial data write error by
transferring data from flawed disk areas to writable disk space.
REMOTE INITIAL PROGRAM LOAD (IPL): Remote IPL is meant to support
workstations with or without local media in both a DOS and OS/2
environment. The Remote IPL feature mimics the normal boot process
of a PC booting from a local drive with several slight variations,
which allow the boot information to come from the network, rather
than from the hard disk or diskette drive. Remote IPL for both DOS
and OS/2 is supported over Token-Ring, PC NET and Ethernet. A single
server will be able to provide this Remote IPL service to
workstations connected to the network via IBM bridges. A full screen
interface is provided to support the Remote IPL function. The Remote
IPL function supports DOS 3.3 and 5.0, and OS/2 2.0. The requesters
shipped with the LAN Server Version 3.0 products are supported as
part of the Remote IPL process as is the DOS and OS/2 LAN Transports
and adapter drivers.
A Remote IPL environment capability provided in these products
is the User Selected Boot Configuration. This function provides, via
a Presentation Manager application, a means to request an alternate
boot to an OS/2 Remote IPL requester. For example, the function
provides the capability of Remote IPLing a different version of OS/2
than is installed at the Remote IPL server, a PS/2 reference
diskette, or an occasionally used DOS application that does not run
in the OS/2 DOS compatibility window.
DOS REQUESTER FUNCTIONS: An improved synergy between the DOS LAN
Requester (DLR) and Windows 3.0 is provided. This allows users of
Windows to access network files, printers, applications and other
services available on a LAN Server domain through the graphical user
interface of Windows. The DLR user can do the following through
Windows:
o Log on and log off a LAN server domain and modify logon
assignments
o View, connect and disconnect available LAN server shared file
sets
o View, connect and disconnect available LAN server shared printers
o View, install and use available LAN server shared applications
o Send messages to other network users.
The DOS LAN Requester is able to accept Double Byte Character
Set (DBCS) characters in command line parameter strings.
The DBCS Printer Support enables the use of those printers
unique to the DBCS environment.
ALERT SUPPORT: Detailed, informative messages (alerts) are sent to
designated users or administrators on the LAN when events of interest
occur. Alerts are sent for printer or disk problems (printer out of
paper, server disk is almost full), security problems, such as
attempts to violate security (excessive password violations), or
excessive entries in the error log (error log nearly full). When
alerts are sent, all pertinent data is recorded, including the server
name, date and time of alert, a description of the problem and
recommended action.
First Failure Support Technology (TM) (FFST/2) provides
superior and consistent reliability and serviceability (RAS)
functions to the customer. In the event of an error, FAST supports
the capture and recording of error data and reporting of the error.
This facility will remove the necessity of having to recreate
problems in the defect correction process. FAST functions include:
o Error logging
o Message logging
o Dump process
o Generic alert build.
Generic alerts are generated, formatted in Network Management
Vector Transport (NMVT) format and then sent to IBM LAN Network
Manager to notify them when critical system situations occur.
Generic alert supports detection points to detect the critical
situations, generates and builds the NMVT formatted alert, and
transports the alert to a host system or focal point.
(TM) Trademark of International Business Machines Corporation.
APPLICATION COEXISTENCE: Applications written to the OS/2 LAN Server
Version 3.0 APIs will be compatible with the LAN Server Version 3.0
product. The OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 command line commands are
compatible with those in the LAN Server Version 3.0 product.
A Domain Control Database (DCDB) Migration Utility is provided
to assist in the migration from a PC LAN Program Version 1.3 or OS/2
LAN Server Version 1.0 environment. The Migration Utility provides a
procedure for migration and preserves the data integrity and
consistency of the definitions in the domain. A migration handbook
provides scenarios with step-by-step procedures addressing the
migration from a PC LAN Program Version 1.3 environment to
environment and from an IBM OS/2 LAN Server Version 1.0 environment
to an IBM OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 environment. Upgrading from
LAN Server Version 1.2, 1.3 or 2.0 does not require the execution of
the migration utility. The handbook does address the upgrade
procedures when moving from LAN Server Version 1.2, 1.3, or 2.0 Entry
or LAN Server Version 2.0 Advanced to the file system available with
the LAN Server Version 3.0 product.

* Reference restrictions section.
The support provided by the IBMXLN driver works with code in a
3174 control unit. This 3174 support is provided in the 3174 Peer
Communication RPQ 8Q0718 or the 3174 Peer Communication feature
(#8010 or #8060).
The LAN over coax function does not support the family 14K
3270 adapter, called the long card.
An innovation in IBM OS/2 LAN Server Version 3.0 is to bring
the workstation that is coax-attached to the IBM 3174, the advantage
of a Token-Ring LAN. This is achieved via appropriate configuration
of the 3174 to allow Peer Communications and is intended for users
who:
o Require both host interactive and casual LAN communications and
o Have not rewired (or cannot rewire) to the IBM Cabling System and
IBM Token-Ring.
DEVICE DRIVER SUPPORT OF ADDITIONAL LAN ADAPTERS: In OS/2 LAN Server
Version 3.0, IBM has implemented the 3COM/Microsoft LAN Manager
Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) for support of
adapters. In addition IBM has extended the NDIS specification in its
implementation of NDIS drivers. The specific details of IBM's
implementation of NDIS Media Access Control (MAC) driver development
will be available upon request to:

PLANNING INFORMATION
INSTALLABILITY: Interoperability between Novell NetWare and IBM DOS
and OS/2 LAN Requester.
o Users of IBM DOS LAN Requester and OS/2 LAN Requester
workstations can log on to both OS/2 and NetWare servers and
access resources available on both servers.
o To enable this capability on a DOS LAN Requester workstation, you
must make some changes to its CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files
and install Novell NetWare Requester for DOS workstations on it.
Refer to the Coexistence Guide for OS/2 LAN Server and NetWare
from IBM on the modifications to be made.
o To enable this capability on an OS/2 workstation, you must make
changes to its CONFIG.SYS file and install Novell NetWare
Requester for OS/2 workstations on it. Refer to the Coexistence
Guide for OS/2 LAN Server and NetWare from IBM for detailed
information.

SECURITY, AUDITABILITY AND CONTROL
User Profile Management (UPM) performs the user ID and
password validation function at logon time. UPM also provides
facilities for the management of IDs and groups within the domain.
A network administrator has a wide range of mechanisms with
which to control and manage user access to the network. A network
administrator is able to define:
o Valid logon times
o Permitted logon times that can be specified in weekly intervals,
such as Monday, Wednesday and Friday between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m.
o Valid workstations
o By default, if a user can log on from any workstation on the
network -- administrator must specify one to eight workstations
to which user is restricted
o Account expiration date
o Individual accounts that can be set to expire on specified dates
(useful for temporary employees and classroom environments)
o Forced logoff
o When a user's account expires or the limits of a valid logon time
are reached. The system can be set to force the user to log off
immediately, grant the user a specified grace period before an
automatic logoff occurs or ignore the expiration and let the user
continue working.
The OS/2 LAN Server products use the U.S. Government Data
Encryption Standard (DES) encryption algorithm to encrypt passwords.
Network administrators can also use the following system wide
settings to control the use of passwords:
o Minimum password length -- specifies the required number of
characters.
o Maximum password age -- forces users to change their passwords at
specified intervals.
o Minimum password age -- stops users from altering their passwords
until a specified interval has passed.
o Unique password history -- ensures that a password chosen by a
user is different from as many as eight of the user's previous
passwords.
Once a user is logged on to a domain, the user's access to a
given resource is controlled by the access control profile for that
given resource. The permissions which follow can be specified in an
access control profile allowing flexibility in that combinations of
appropriate permissions may be constructed to give very specific
control to a user:
None = No access to the resource.
Execute = Use the resource (an application
program), but not able to copy to
your diskette or hard file.
Read = Read only.
Write = Write only.
Create = Create a file or directory.
Delete = Delete a file or directory.
Attribute = Change the attributes of a file.
Permission = Gives a user the ability to
grant other users access to this resource.
By default, all resources are protected. A network
administrator can grant permissions to groups and individual users.
Creating groups of users with similar resource needs makes it easier
to grant access permissions. New users added to an existing group
inherit the permissions previously given to the group. An
administrator can effectively manage the resources in the network by
using a combination of group designations and permissions.
There are several facilities available to secure an OS/2 LAN
Server which may not be locked away in a room of its own. The PS/2
hardware provides a power-on password facility which disables the
machines on startup until the correct password is provided. Another
password facility allows the locking of the keyboard for those times
when the operator is temporarily away. A Server Mode function is
also available which automatically disables input at startup but
allows the machine to come to full readiness without operator
interaction. The 386 High Performance File System (HPFS) provides
file protection against unauthorized access to any server file. This
protection cannot be evaded by rebooting the server and is functional
even when the LAN Server code is not running. This protection
applies to all files stored on the 386 HPFS file partition. 386 HPFS
is available with the Advanced product only.
A comprehensive audit trail facility enhances security by
enabling administrators to keep track of selected server resources.
Any network resource, such as a directory, an individual file, a
named pipe or a printer queue, can be designated for auditing.
Resource auditing can provide data on the type of access-open, close,
read, write, user name, accessing workstation, date and time of
occurrence, outcome of access and descriptive information about the
event. Server auditing can keep track of when the server is started,
stopped, paused, or continued, all logons and logoffs and all remote
administration connections. The administrator also is able to audit
changes to the user and group account database and to audit changes
to the access control list.
User management is responsible for evaluation, selection and
implementation of security features, administrative procedures and
appropriate controls in application systems and communication
facilities.
