2.10.1About the Digi Utilities

Digi distributes a pair of utilities that are for any DOS system with a
NetBEUI stack. Systems include Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/
98, Windows NT, and DOS LAN Manager clients. The two utilities are:

SHOWPRN.EXE

: Finds any FastPort(s) on the network

NBMON.EXE

: Allows users to configure FastPort

These utilities require a NetBEUI stack to be installed on the client
machine. If not already done so, install NetBEUI first before using either
utility. Copy the utilities to the “local” system from the CD-ROM or by
retrieving them from Digi’s ftp sites:

FTP.MILAN.COM

. Files are located in

the following directory:

/pub/fastport/software
