Re: Client Access Express on a CISC system

["John Taylor" <john.taylor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff,

If you need IFS access through CA, then I believe you must be on V4R2 in
order to run express. This is the first release that Netserver became
available.

The following link will take you to the installation guide for further
reference.
