- EE COM manager is NOT required. Please make sure that CONFIG.SYS has DEVICE
- statements for INET.SYS and IFNDIS.SYS and RUN statements for NETBIND.EXE
- and CNTRL.EXE. See README for details.
- Please note that 1.2.1 upgrade is available which (among other things)
- greatly simplifies the installation. It is available for free to 1.2 owners.
- Also, please note the existence of comp.os.os2.networking where questions
- like yours have a higher probability of being answered.
