- The file you downloaded (nsd201.zip) is not the full OS/2 2.0 requester, it
- is simply an update file for those already owning the requester. There are
- two ways (legal ways, that is) to get the requester; Novell and IBM. To
- get it from Novell, call 800-update1. It's $30, which pays for disks,
- manuals, and shipping. IBM charges a couple of hundred for the requester and
- the Network management map for OS/2. (BY THE WAY, that $30 is a corporate
- site license).
