Summary:
The following information describes how to reduce the time it takes to
log onto a network with either DOS LAN Manager or OS/2 LAN Manager.
DOS LAN Manager
---------------
The following can be done to decrease the time it takes to log onto a
network with a DOS LAN Manager workstation:
Have a Domain Controller running NETLOGON to validate the logon to
avoid the (default) 45-second timeout.
OS/2 LAN Manager
----------------
You can use either of the following options to decrease the time it
takes to log onto a network with an OS/2 LAN Manager workstation:
1. Have a Domain Controller running NETLOGON to validate the logon to
avoid the (default) 15-second timeout.
2. Change the wrkheuristics 33 bit in the LANMAN.INI file as
described in appendix B of the "Microsoft Operating System/2 LAN
Manager Administrator's Reference." This bit will cause the OS/2
workstation to log onto the network STANDALONE after the timeout
value specified has been exceeded (if a Domain Controller has not
already logged the workstation on, of course).
