-Alternatives include two free implementations of AppleTalk for several kinds of UNIX machines and several more

-users, with no additional support required on the Macintosh. The two free implementations are <ulink

- <para>Basically, you need three components:</para>
-
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>The File and Print Client (IBM peer)</para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>TCP/IP (Internet support) </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>The <quote>NetBIOS over TCP/IP</quote> driver (TCPBEUI)</para></listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
-
- <para>Installing the first two together with the base operating
- system on a blank system is explained in the Warp manual. If Warp
- has already been installed, but you now want to install the
- networking support, use the <quote>Selective Install for Networking</quote>
- object in the <quote>System Setup</quote> folder.</para>
-
- <para>Adding the <quote>NetBIOS over TCP/IP</quote> driver is not described
- in the manual and just barely in the online documentation. Start
- <command>MPTS.EXE</command>, click on <guiicon>OK</guiicon>, click on <guimenu>Configure LAPS</guimenu>, and click
- on <guimenu>IBM OS/2 NETBIOS OVER TCP/IP</guimenu> in <guilabel>Protocols</guilabel>. This line
- is then moved to <guilabel>Current Configuration</guilabel>. Select that line,
- click on <guimenuitem>Change number</guimenuitem>, and increase it from 0 to 1. Save this
- configuration.</para>
-
- <para>If the Samba server is not on your local subnet, you
- can optionally add IP names and addresses of these servers
- to the <guimenu>Names List</guimenu> or specify a WINS server (NetBIOS
- Nameserver in IBM and RFC terminology). For Warp Connect, you
- may need to download an update for <constant>IBM Peer</constant> to bring it on
- the same level as Warp 4. See the IBM OS/2 Warp Web page</para>

- <para>before you install the client. Also, do not use the included NE2000 driver because it is buggy.
- Try the NE2000 or NS2000 driver from <ulink noescape="1" url="ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/os2/network/ndis/">

-
- <para>Create a share called <smbconfsection name="[PRINTDRV]"/> that is
- world-readable. Copy your OS/2 driver files there. The <filename>.EA_</filename>
- files must still be separate, so you will need to use the original install files
- and not copy an installed driver from an OS/2 system.</para>
-
- <para>Install the NT driver first for that printer. Then, add to your &smb.conf; a parameter,
- <smbconfoption name="os2 driver map"><replaceable>filename</replaceable></smbconfoption>.
- Next, in the file specified by <replaceable>filename</replaceable>, map the
- name of the NT driver name to the OS/2 driver name as follows:</para>
-
- <para><parameter><replaceable>nt driver name</replaceable> = <replaceable>os2 driver name</replaceable>.<replaceable>device name</replaceable></parameter>, e.g.,</para>
-
- <para><parameter>
- HP LaserJet 5L = LASERJET.HP LaserJet 5L</parameter></para>
-
- <para>You can have multiple drivers mapped in this file.</para>
-
- <para>If you only specify the OS/2 driver name, and not the
- device name, the first attempt to download the driver will
- actually download the files, but the OS/2 client will tell
- you the driver is not available. On the second attempt, it
- will work. This is fixed simply by adding the device name
- to the mapping, after which it will work on the first attempt.

-<title>Delete .pwl Files After Password Change</title>
-
-<para>
-Windows for Workgroups does a lousy job with passwords. When you change passwords on either
-the UNIX box or the PC, the safest thing to do is delete the .pwl files in the Windows
-directory. The PC will complain about not finding the files, but will soon get over it,
-allowing you to enter the new password.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-If you do not do this, you may find that Windows for Workgroups remembers and uses the old
-password, even if you told it a new one.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-Often Windows for Workgroups will totally ignore a password you give it in a dialog box.

-<indexterm><primary>admincfg.exe</primary></indexterm>
-There is a program call <filename>admincfg.exe</filename> on the last disk (disk 8) of the WFW 3.11 disk set.
-To install it, type <userinput>EXPAND A:\ADMINCFG.EX_ C:\WINDOWS\ADMINCFG.EXE</userinput>. Then add an icon
-for it via the <application>Program Manager</application> <guimenu>New</guimenu> menu. This program allows
-you to control how WFW handles passwords, Disable Password Caching and so on, for use with <smbconfoption
-name="security">user</smbconfoption>.

-<title>Password Case Sensitivity</title>
-
-<para>Windows for Workgroups uppercases the password before sending it to the server.
-UNIX passwords can be case-sensitive though. Check the &smb.conf; information on
-<smbconfoption name="password level"/> to specify what characters
-Samba should try to uppercase when checking.</para>

-<title>Use TCP/IP as Default Protocol</title>
-
-<para>To support print queue reporting, you may find
-that you have to use TCP/IP as the default protocol under
-Windows for Workgroups. For some reason, if you leave NetBEUI as the default,
-it may break the print queue reporting on some systems.
-It is presumably a Windows for Workgroups bug.</para>

-Note that some people have found that setting <parameter>DefaultRcvWindow</parameter> in
-the <smbconfsection name="[MSTCP]"/> section of the
-<filename>SYSTEM.INI</filename> file under Windows for Workgroups to 3072 gives a
-big improvement.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-My own experience with DefaultRcvWindow is that I get a much better
-performance with a large value (16384 or larger). Other people have
-reported that anything over 3072 slows things down enormously. One
-person even reported a speed drop of a factor of 30 when he went from
-3072 to 8192.

-<title>Windows 2000 Service Pack 2</title>
-
-<para>
-There are several annoyances with Windows 2000 SP2, one of which
-only appears when using a Samba server to host user profiles
-to Windows 2000 SP2 clients in a Windows domain. This assumes
-that Samba is a member of the domain, but the problem will
-most likely occur if it is not.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-In order to serve profiles successfully to Windows 2000 SP2
-clients (when not operating as a PDC), Samba must have
-<smbconfoption name="nt acl support">no</smbconfoption>
-added to the file share that houses the roaming profiles.
-If this is not done, then the Windows 2000 SP2 client will
-complain about not being able to access the profile (Access
-Denied) and create multiple copies of it on disk (DOMAIN.user.001,
-DOMAIN.user.002, and so on). See the &smb.conf; man page
-for more details on this option. Also note that the
-<smbconfoption name="nt acl support"/> parameter was formally a global parameter in
-releases prior to Samba 2.2.2.

-<smbconfoption name="read only">no</smbconfoption>
-</smbconfblock>
-</example>
-
-<para>
-The reason for this bug is that the Windows 200x SP2 client copies
-the security descriptor for the profile that contains
-the Samba server's SID, and not the domain SID. The client
-compares the SID for SAMBA\user and realizes it is
-different from the one assigned to DOMAIN\user; hence,
-<errorname>access denied</errorname> message.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-When the <smbconfoption name="nt acl support"/> parameter is disabled, Samba will send
-the Windows 200x client a response to the QuerySecurityDescriptor trans2 call, which causes the client
-to set a default ACL for the profile. This default ACL includes:
