The Advanced Server software lets you use Compaq Computer Corporation computers as servers to share network resources with supported clients and is compatible with Window NT servers running in the same network. As a server for computers in a network, the Advanced Server provides file and print services that enable the efficient sharing of computing resources among a community of desktop users. It can function as a file and print server for a small, isolated community of users or as the foundation of a large network distributed over a wide geographical area. This document shows you how to manage your servers using Advanced Server software. Section 1.2, The Advanced Server Network , describes the components of the network, its features, and services.
