  29. The level of security for a LAN Server is the same as LAN Server 2.0 Adv. - loc 
  30. al security is available.  The level of security for the peer services at this  
  31. time is either a user level security or a share level security.  UPM on the pee 
  32. r machine is used for the user level security, and a password must be supplied  
  33. with the net use command if using share level security.  A peer servers securit 
  34. y compares very much to a LAN Server 2.0 Entry.
