- I would NOT recommend upgrading your servers to OS/2 2.0 until Microsoft
- comes out with new server software. I believe it is more important right
- now to have the continued support of the server software than to realize any
- small gains which might be achieved in upgrading the operating system at
- this time. I DO believe, however, that you should upgrade ANY workstation
- that is using OS/2 to the new 2.0 version. Make sure your servers are
- running NETBEUI if you want to take advantage of IBM's TCP/IP. IBM TCP/IP
- and LAN Manager TCP/IP won't work together. NETBEUI and IBM TCP/IP will.

- I'll be glad to help, if you need it - see the address below. Our mail
- server lopped off the domain name, so use gill@eagle.sangamon.edu
