To remove the NetBIOS support layer that is above TCP/IP-32 for Windows for
Workgroups 3.11, remove the file name VNBT.386 from the transport line in
the [386Enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI file:
NetBIOS applications and NetBIOS browsing and name resolution do not work
after this change, however, the Sockets application interface is still
available for applications like FTP and Telnet.
