Yes! Though it does use more extended memory than the VLM client, it 
uses under 10K conventional....now I can actually configure laptops 
leaving enough memory with Netware & PCMCIA drivers loaded in Win3.x.

Also includes agents for TSA backup, SNMP management and IPX/IP gateway 
(Netware 4.11). Allows for GUI login in Windows 3.x, don't have to login 
in DOS. (you can, if you wish).

It runs in protected mode vs real mode for VLM's, so you get better 
performance and better crash protection. Auto-reconnect after server 
crashes works more consistantly.

Better all around, I just would suggest a 16MB minimum RAM install on 
client.
