- I'm locked into a Netware 2.0a SFT network for the time being, so I can
- can't use DOS higher that 3.3. Are you saying that I should be able to
- log on to this network in a DOS box, using a 3.3. boot image? That
- would mean that I could run an application off of the netware server,
- but could I run more than one application off the server, i.e. two
- simultaneous logins from the same machine? (Greedy aren't I).
-
- Thanks.
