SunSoft PC-NFS

Windows 95 can be installed and run with SunSoft PC-NFS version 5.0. SunSoft servers will not appear in Network Neighborhood. You can use the Map Network Drive dialog box to connect to servers.

SunSoft PC-NFS as the primary network.

If SunSoft PC-NFS is installed using a SunSoft PC-NFS LAN driver, Windows 95 can support SunSoft PC-NFS as the primary network. Additional 32-bit network providers are not possible in this case.

SunSoft PC-NFS as an additional 16-bit Windows 95 client.

If SunSoft PC-NFS is installed with an NDIS 2 network adapter driver or with an ODI driver, then SunSoft PC-NFS can be installed as an additional 16-bit network client, and you can install 32-bit, protected-mode clients such as Client for Microsoft Networks or Client for NetWare Networks.

If you obtain supporting SunSoft PRO NFS components from the network vendor, you can use Microsoft TCP/IP with this client.

To set up Windows 95 with SunSoft PC-NFS real-mode network client support

Make sure that the SunSoft PC-NFS client is already installed under MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, or Windows for Workgroups. The network should be running when you follow the steps in "Installing Support for Other Networks: An Overview" earlier in this chapter. No other steps are required.

The following table shows the entries required in configuration files when SunSoft PC-NFS real-mode network support is installed with Windows 95, depending on whether PC-NFS is installed as the primary network only, or installed with Client for Microsoft Networks.
