WFW NCBS and SESSIONS Settings Affect only Real Mode NetBEUI

ID: Q104955


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows for Workgroups SDK, version 3.11


SUMMARY

The NCBS and SESSIONS settings found in the [MS$NETBEUI] section of the PROTOCOL.INI file, affect only the real mode NetBEUI; the protected mode NetBEUI (VNB.386) ignores these settings and allocates resources dynamically from the Virtual Memory Manager's heap.

The real mode NetBEUI is used only if the commands NET START NETBEUI or NET START FULL are issued before Windows for Workgroups is started. Otherwise, the protected mode NetBEUI and redirector are used, freeing up more conventional memory.

Additional query words: wfw wfwg settings parameters
