BENEFITS

Run your favorite Windows Sockets applications over the PC/TCP OS/2 kernel

Windows Sockets applications and most applications that are compatible with PC/TCP OnNet and PC/TCP Network Software now run over the PC/TCP OS/2 kernel.

Bundled NFS client supports up to 24 remote network drives

With PC/TCP's fully integrated NFS client, users can easily access remote applications, printers, and store files on multiple network drives.

Interoperable with IBM's TCP/IP Dynamic Link Libraries (DLL)

PC/TCP supports IBM's TCPIPDLL.DLL, enabling many applications that are written to this interface to run over the PC/TCP OS/2 kernel.

Easy-to-use serial line Communication Dialer

The Communication Dialer makes it easy to establish reliable remote serial connections. Use your PC to access remote resources worldwide, from the convenience of your home, hotel room, or remote customer site.

Most reliable TCP/IP kernel

The PC/TCP kernel is the most reliable TCP/IP implementation for the PC, supporting many open- standards protocols including TCP, IP, UDP, ICMP, and ARP.

Kerberos v4 security

Kerberos v4 security provides reliable authentication and data stream encryption for users in dissimilar computing environments by preventing easily captured passwords from being transmitted over your network.
