NETLOGON.PRO in LAN Manager 2.0 Doesn't Load in Control Panel

ID: Q77541

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

SUMMARY

If you run Windows 3.0 on a Microsoft LAN Manager 2.0 Enhanced (or 100 percent compatible) network, NETLOGON.PRO does not load correctly from within the Windows Control Panel when you use the LANMAN.DRV file that is shipped with Windows 3.0.


MORE INFORMATION

If you log onto the network from within Windows Control Panel by selecting the Network icon and using the Windows 3.0 LANMAN.DRV file, the following may happen:

  1. The profile doesn't execute.


  2. The profile doesn't execute, flips to a full-screen window, and displays the following error message:
    Invalid Drive Specification


These problems do not occur if you use the Net Logon command before starting Windows or if you use version 3.01 of the LANMAN.DRV, which is shipped with the MS-DOS LAN Manager version 2.0. The file is located on the 3.5-inch Workstation2 disk or the 5.25-inch Workstation3 disk, under the subdirectory NETPROG. To install this driver, do the following:
  1. Switch to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory.


  2. Rename the LANMAN.DRV using the proper DOS syntax.


  3. Switch to the floppy disk drive where the new LANMAN.DRV is located and copy it into the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory.
