IBM LAN Support Program for DOS
-------------------------------


The following depict examples of using the IBM LAN Support program with the
3Com EtherLink III adapter.  To acquire the latest version of LAN Support,
downloads are available from IBM's FTP site at:

www.raleigh.ibm.com/pub/products/lanprods/lantran/lsp138.exe.

Version1.38 is the latest version available at the time of this readme file.
For installation instructions and assistance, please refer to IBM for more
information.
