Files: LITE2LAN.ZIP should include the following files: NEWNET.EXE LITE2LAN.BAT RESTORE.BAT LITE2LAN.DOC If any of these files are missing, DO NOT RUN LITE2LAN. To run: Copy LITE2LAN.BAT and NEWNET.EXE to your Lantastic subdirectory (MUST BE C:\LANTASTI ) and run LITE2LAN.BAT. LITE2LAN.BAT does the following: Renames NET.EXE to NETL.EXE Renames NET.HLP to NETL.HLP Renames NET.MNU to NETL.MNU Renames NEWNET.EXE to NET.EXE To restore: To restore your Lantastic files to their origianl names, run RESTORE.BAT in your Lantastic subdirectory. What it does: The new NET.EXE allows you to use all standard Lantastic commands as before, but it also allows you to use certain Netware Lite commands (see Netware Lite Commands below for listing of supported commands). * * THIS IS VERY USEFUL IF YOU HAVE SWITCHED FROM NETWARE LITE TO LANTASTIC, AND HAVE NUMEROUS BATCH FILES THAT USE NETWARE LITE COMMANDS. How it works: Lantastic commands are executed simply by calling NETL.EXE. Netware Lite commands are executed by carring out various Lantastic commands to achieve the same result. Special Note: One of the major differences between Lantastic and Netware Lite is that Lantastic logs into a server when a device is redirected to that server. Netware Lite just redirects the device only. The new NET.EXE compensates for this by logging out of a server when a device redirction is deleted or redircted to a different server, but only if no other devices are redirected to the same server. For example: NET MAP K: CDRIVE ONE logs into server ONE, then redirects K: to server ONE. NET MAP DEL K: deletes the redirection of K: to server ONE, then checks to see if any other devices (drive letters or printers) are redirected to server ONE, if not then it logs out from server ONE. Netware Lite Commands --------------------- The following commands can be displayed by typing: NET HELP LITE NET MAP Shows current drive letter redirections. NET MAP (ex. NET MAP K: CDRIVE ONE) Logs into server then redirects drive letter to network drive on server. NET MAP DEL (ex. NET MAP DEL K:) Deletes redirection of drive letter to server, then checks for other redirections (drive letters or printers) to the same server. If no other redirections, then logs out from server. NET CAPTURE Shows current printer port redirections NET CAPTURE (printer port) (ex. NET CAPTURE LPT1 HP-4) Logs into server that the network printer is attatched to, then redirects printer port to network printer. If no printer port is specified, redirects LPT1 to network printer. NET CAPTURE DEL (ex. NET CAPTURE DEL LPT1) Deletes redirection of printer port to server, then checks for other redirections (drive letters or printers) to the same server. If no other redirections, then logs out from server. NET SLIST Lists all server detected on network. NET WHOAMI Gives the name of the server you are using.
