Save your head and back - upgrade your workstations to at least Windows 98 ...

I don't even know anyone running Windows 3.11 - what kind of a cheap outfit are you working for.. They need to spend the money and upgrade to the latest and junkest Microsoft OS... XP

Ahhhh - I would run screaming - thats going to be a nightmare ...

If yes... don't bother spending money for the upgrade and stick to your system... 3.11 is not even a OS... it is DOS GUI...even win 98 is having some problems in win2k how much more with 3.11. Don't tell me you are using 486 computers.

The only solution to your system if you don't like to upgrade those workstations .. they are as good as thin client but the license for metaframe might cost you more and more headache on your end..

good luck

Install NETBUI protocol on the server, networking on WFWG and matching user accounts on both. It's a bad idea but it will work.
