SUMMARY
When using DEC Pathworks 5.1 on a WFW client as a second network, the
Systems Management Server 1.1 client does not report to the SMS server,
even if the Microsoft TCP/IP32 stack is also loaded on the primary network.
MORE INFORMATION
When you use Pathworks 5.1 as a secondary network, Windows for Workgroups
is forced to work in a real-mode networking model. Pathworks real-mode
TCP/IP stack is not compatible with SMS 1.1 and is not supported.
Microsoft's TCP/IP-32 stack is a virtual mode only stack.
DEC offers their own version of SMS, which they support with Pathworks, DEC
Polycenter. Microsoft does not support Pathworks.
Pathworks is manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation, Inc., a vendor
independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise,
regarding this product's performance or reliability.
