Chapter 7 Managing an OS/2 Workstation

LAN Manager can be in the attached or detached condition at the time

you issue the Remove command. If LAN Manager is detached, the

Remove command deletes the LAN Manager files from the hard disk. If

LAN Manager is attached, the Remove command does the following:

• Removes and saves LAN Manager information from the

CONFIG.SYS and STARTUP.CMD files.

• Removes and saves the extended DISK01.SYS or DISK02.SYS file

(if installed) and restores the original file.

• Removes and saves references to the LAN Manager spooler from the

OS2SYS.INI and OS2.INI files.

• Deletes the LAN Manager files from the hard disk. The

LAN Manager root directory (usually C:\LANMAN) remains, with

two setup files in it. You can remove these files manually with the

OS/2 delete command and remove the directory with the OS/2 rmdir

command.

reboot the computer. LAN Manager Setup completes the remove

process after the reboot.

remaining files in it.
