I believe they stated to have a BETA this summer. Not the final package.

I haven't seen anyone recommend Rexxterm, so I'll mention it. It is a 
commercial program. When you purchase it, you get both the OS/2 and the
DOS versions. It supports Rexx for its command/scripting language, and 
will use either Personal Rexx or the IBM Rexx that comes with OS/2.
  
It supports 16550 chips, high-speed modems, and most file transfer
protocols and terminal types of interest (Zmodem, Kermit, Compuserve-B,
VT100, ANSI, Vidtex, etc.).
  
It comes from Quercus Systems at P.O. Box 2157 in Saratoga, CA.
  
I am not affiliated with this company or this product. I just like it

I have not tried this, but you did mention REXX. If you do use REXX
you can have it read a file containing a list of user names and then
execute a procedure to add the user, define resource assignments,
add them to groups, etc. I don't see why you can't do this completely
in REXX.

The DeskJet, oddly enough, works with the "Epson EPL-7000" driver.
This is not "Epson mode" in the conventional sense -- the Epson
EPL-7000 is a laser printer.  Make sure you disable fast system fonts
(and ignore bin selection).  Otherwise you apparently get splendid
results, I hear -- the driver could be renamed "DeskJet" and you
wouldn't know the difference.

OK.  Here's the story:

I have a version of OS/2 1.3 EE, and will have my free upgrade to OS/2
2.0 and ES 1.0 in a few weeks.  Since the campus has no IBM machines,
and I have no need of databases services (at least not at this level):

For Sale: IBM Extended Services 1.0 with Database Server.  New, unopened,
	in the box.  So new, I don't even have it yet (nor does anyone).

Give me an offer.  I am going to be replacing it with IBM TCP/IP, so if
you have a new one of these to trade, offer me that.  I'm not concerned
about the money, but I expect to be able to pay for a full copy of TCP,
maybe even the source lisence.

If anyone has a new copy of TCP/IP, or knows a way I could exchange these,
please let me know.

Note:  This is NOT an educational license.  It is the real, full thing.
	I am upgrading from a real, full, non-educational license of
	IBM OS/2 1.3 EE.  Please don't send offers of something like

Actually, Microsoft WILL be shipping client software for OS/2 2.0.  What 
we have not committed to doing is shipping our server for OS/2 2.0. There
is a good reason for this beyond the politics surrounding us.  The 
main advantages that OS/2 2.0 gives to normal applications doesn't 
apply to our server software, the access to 32bit operations.  Microsoft's
HPFS386 server already runs at r0 fully utilizing the 386 in high-permformance
386 assembly code, which of course is fully 32bit. 

It would be a major undertaking to make this work under 2.0, with little to 
no performance gain.  The same thing for our named-pipe server.  The amount
of dev-work, and testing is extremely expensive, for little gain.  It
was decided that that work should go into NT and our NT server instead. 
<no flames please, that's the facts>

We do want to make sure that OS/2 2.0 machines are connected into the network
and so there will be a full OS/2 2.0 lanman redirecter at some point in the
future.

I'm not a spokesman for LM, I'm just one of the LM-OS2 server developers.

of Word documents.  I certainly would like to get an OS/2 word

  By the way, does anyone know why I can't make a program manager
entry for my MSDOS Word under OS/2 v1.3?  When I create a new object
in my DOS applications group, I enter the path for the executable, and
the Program type removes "DOS Full Screen" from the list of options.
I haven't had a problem creating entries for other programs:  Quicken,
QPro, Turbo C++, DOS VGA games, etc.  Is it an attempt to get me to
upgrade to MS Word for OS/2?  Not bloody likely!

IBM showed OS/2 2.0 GA with modification running Windows 3.1 applications
at COMDEX (4/7/92).  Lee Reiswig did not say when the modifications would
be made available to the public but .... they exist ***AND*** only 24 hours

Some messages ago, in response to a posting asking about OS/2 word
processors, I mentioned that because DeScribe already had a 32-bit
demo available, they should be shipping the 32-bit version of their
word processor soon.  Somebody followed up my post to say that the
32-bit version wouldn't be released until July.  Yet another person
followed up to say that the summer release would be of version 4.0,
not the current version 3.0.

Well, to clarify the situation, let it be known that based on
information available from the DeScribe BBS, the 32-bit version
of version 3.0 is shipping NOW.  For those who purchased version 3.0,
the upgrade is free, with proof of purchase.  Those users who upgraded
to version 3.0 from an earlier version will be charged $75.  Those
registered users of a version earlier than version 3.0 will be charged
$150.

The BBS message said to call 916-646-1111 for information about 32-bit
upgrades.  I don't know if you can use their 800 number (800-448-1586).

It is much tougher, but no one will say absolutely impossible, to
infect OS/2 with a virus. There is no direct sector write. and no
direct hardware access (unless you leave IOPL=YES).

JR>4)   Does OS/2 support the Sound Blaster?

You need an OS/2 2.0 device driver for full use. Until it is
available, you can use the DOS device driver in its own DOS session.

The OS/2 multimedia extensions, due in June, will blow away the
Windows stuff, so expect multimedia to really take off under OS/2.

There is no driver for the HP DeskJet500 in OS/2 2.0 GA. It is supported
only in EPSON emulation mode. You may also try the HP Laserjet 2000 driver.

Actually, the Windows 3.1 multimedia capability is essentially lifted
from the Multimedia Extensions for Windows (which were packaged
separately from Windows 3.0 but came with multimedia applications).
The Multimedia Extensions for Windows run fine under OS/2 2.0.

The multimedia features aren't really new in Windows 3.1.  It is a bit
of repackaging, however.

am patiently waiting for) will need an updated bios chip...
(one where the serial number at bootup ends with a -A and not a -8)
Is it true that I will need to upgrade the chip? Are there possiblities
OS/2 will not like my actual motherboard and that will need to be replaced?
I am having a little anxiety about this subject. I know IBM guarantees
to fix any problems if possible. . . but has anyone yet had an experience

I've loaded OS/2 2.0 GA and am now tring to get one of my DOS apps running.
The app is called Personal Gains and is used with a FM radio receiver.
The Radio receiver is attached to Com1, my modem is on com2.  Although
swapping the two around has no affect.  For some reason the program can't 
recongize the receiver on com1.  It tells me it's setting the baud and then
it times out i think.  It runs fine under DOS 5.0. No luck under OS/2.

I have set teh COM hold param to On and HW_Timer on as well neither has any 
affect on it.

Any suggestions.

I've got OS/2 2.0 6.304 on an IBM PS/2 55sx with a Western Digital
EtherCard Plus/A in it.  I had my SE get me the CSD for TCP/IP 1.2, and
I've installed it.

TCP/IP refuses to talk to or try to use the WD 8003e card.  Various
NETSTAT commands come back with minimal responses (-n shows no output,
-c shows all 0's).  I saw a much earlier append about getting a fix for
the WD8003e on OS/2 2.0 and TCP/IP 1.2.1, but that driver doesn't seem
to help.

A few simple questions:

Is TCP/IP 1.2.1 just 1.2 plus the CSDs, or should I get all new disks
from IBM?  Does IFNDIS.200 work with 1.2 (plus CSD?) or just 1.2.1?
Does IFNDIS.200 work with 6.304 or just 6.177?  Should I stop bothering
you and start trying to navigate IBM's support structure?

Thanks,
Nick

I chased this down. He was showing a modified OS/2 2.0+ (Beyond GA) running
seamless 3.1 on the OS/2 2.0 desktop. This is a rather strong statement
of intent and capability. This will be in the update stream. And you will
be able to run your Windows 3.0 applications that don't run on Windows 3.1
and your Windows 3.1 applications...  Thats more compatible with Windows
than Windows 3.1, you know.
