633.0. "Problem of Windows95 access PWRK V5.0D" by 33102::JAUNG () Wed Apr 09 1997 10:07

    We are running PATHWORKS V5.0D on VMS 6.2.  Our PCs running WFWG 3.11
    with NetBui and TCP/IP can access shared services and printer queues
    without any problem.  However, our PCs running Windows95 with
    NetBui/Tcpip w/o PWRK95 can only see the server from WORKGROUP
    and failed to access shared services and printer queues.  The error 
    messages displayed "The network has responded incorrectly".  
    However, PCs running Windows95 have no problem to access PATHWORKS
    server on ULTRIX.
    
    We'd appreciate suggestions on how to troubleshoot this problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    for 1, set the workgroup of (at least) one WfW/95/NT system (with the
    same protocols as the server and with file/print sharing enabled) to 
    the same thing as the server's domain name. 
    
    for 2, use PW32 (or PW/95) or the FPA kit to obtain a valid license for
    your clients.  See the multitude of notes on licensing.
