-
- the Win32 SDK that you have has both netbeui & tcp/ip support - Windows NT
- can support more transports, including the ones you mention, but they're
- not done by the various vendors yet, and not in your cd-rom
-
- If the vendor implements their transport in the streams environment,
- or to the defined interfaces, the built-in networking will operate
- over that tranport, including file & print, and RPC services -- Alistair
