We have a server running an ADP database. One of the workstations can browse the server in Windows 95 explorer
but can not attach to the database. Our
client analyst is searching for a netbios protocol to load on that workstation because one of the other Win95 workstations has a protocol loaded called Netbious support for Ipx/spx. I am thinking that Netbios is a service of
Microsoft networking and not an actual protocol that can be added in control panel networking. Atleast, I have never had to install netbios. On our many NT servers we have a Netbios service running in Network services so that netbios names can be seen on the network. If there IS a netbios protocol that can be loaded please let me know where we can download it. Thanks

NetBEUI is a Microsoft protocol which stands for NetBIOS Extended User Interface. Essentially it is NetBIOS with some enhancements. Try installing that, and I hope it helps you out.
