RE: Express and Netserver

["Allen, Stuart" <sallen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

IBM are removing support for V3.1.3 in May 2000, so i'd do the upgrade.
Haven't noticed any performance problem, if anything its a bit quicker
'cause you only share the folders you are interested in.
Plus you can hide it in the network neighborhood, and just give those who
need it a mapped network drive.

As in all client access's (!), bits of it are free, other bits like 5250 you
need a licence.

Gets my thumbs up.
