8 OS/2 Configuration
Overview
This chapter details a complete OS/2 configuration setup including:
• configuring the NIC Interface with its TCP/IP settings, and
• configuring a new printer on an OS/2 workstation. The
procedure given is from an OS/2 Warp 4 system, but the setup
is similar to OS/2 Warp 3 and v2.11.
OS/2 must have TCP/IP installed on it and be configured with the
correct IP parameters. See OS/2 documentation/help and your
network administrator.
Configuring The NIC TCP/IP Settings
There are mandatory TCP/IP settings (e.g., an IP address and
subnet mask) needed before the print server can be detected on
the network. There are also some optional settings for configuring
your NIC within an OS/2 environment. This section mentions some
of the more common optional settings available.
