Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Netting Win3.1 with OS/2

=====================================================

I'm setting up an older machine with Win3.1 (purposely, really) because I need
to use something that makes use of .VXDs. I'd forgotten how painful it is to
shuttle files around without networking.

First, is there something I can do that will allow the machine to participate
in a OS/2 peer environment? What is the requirement (Netbios for DOS, Netbios
for Windows)? I have access to Netware Lite and/or Windows for Workgroups
(WfW). Will either of these work?

Finally, the machine has a DLink 530TX network card in it. Which driver will
be required of the myriad available in its driver tree for the card? Is it the
NDIS2 for DOS (since for OS/2 it is the NDIS2 for OS/2)? I assume, if the
solution is WfW, that there is a WfW specific netcard driver that I need, right?

Thanks in advance.
