Comment:


I recently came across a complete boxed version of OS/2 Warp 4 Server. Included with it is OS/2 Warp 3 as well.

I'd really like to try Server out and use it for my own home network. I'd perferrably like to use it as a gateway to the internet(router), file server for PCs in the home and even use it as a webserver to host my own website rather than pay someone else to do it.

I have quite a few older PC pieces that I'd like to use for it as well. an AMD K6/2 500 CPU, 128MB of ram, a 10 GB drive, a decent 4MB PCI video card, etc. etc. Nothing NEW, but I think it would be fine for OS/2 Warp 4 Server.

I'm looking for some websites that would help me with some tips and tricks for installing and any kinds of updates and fixpacks online.

I'm not a newbie to computers, just to OS/2!

Thanks for any help.

Fixpaks are available from IBM if you register but you would be better of ordering a CD from MENSYS there is a link on this page:

Forgot to mention prior to install if you have greater than 64mb memory change the OS/2 setting in BIOS and it is advisable to use the updated setup disks:

Looking at some of the websites, they cover all the versions of OS/2 but OS/2 Server Version 4 is hard to find.

Is Server V4 the same as the base V4 but with server functions?
