Re: Netserver problem -- MIDRANGE-L

This is for mapping network drives to the IFS. I'm using CAE for ops nav,
Personal communications (I got my own copy) for TN5250. File and print
sharing, which were a part of CA for 95/NT, are not a part of CAE.
NetServer is the 400 implementation of Windows file and print sharing,
allowing it to be a part of Windows networks, and that uses NETBIOS over
TCP/IP.
