DESCRIPTION

This document describes how to obtain the latest version of the 
Requester so you can run OS/2 on a Novell NetWare network.

RESOLUTION

There are two supported versions of the Requester, plus several patches 
(NSDs) available:

* From Novell:

  Novell supports OS/2 2.x with OS/2 Requester 2.10. You can download
  the latest requester from Novell's NetWare forum on CompuServe, or do
  an anonymous FTP to:
     
      ftp.novell.com /pub/netware/novfiles/ client.kit/os2

* From IBM:

  Download files OS2DC1.EXE, OS2UT1.EXE, WSDRV1.EXE, WSOS21.EXE, and
  WSOS22.EXE from the PCC BBS (919-517-0001). Each file is a
  self-extracting zip file that should be unpacked to its own diskette.
  For example, type:

     WSOS21 -d a:

  OS/2 2.1 can have many problems if you are using an old Requester. To
  tell which Requester is running, look at the date of the
  \NETWARE\VIPX.SYS file. It should be dated 4/8/94 for Requester
  version 2.10.

  If there is no NetWare server with global directory services on the
  LAN, add the line DIRECTORY SERVICES OFF to the NET.CFG file. The
  line must start with at least one space.
