I don't think that will work. Arcserve 5.01e only comes with a Windows client.
Therefore you would have to run the DOS Brequest in the Virtual Dos session
that Windows uses to start.

However, all this is moot. Arcserve 5.0 specifically states in one of the
release notes that it won't run under WIN-OS/2. It seems to be something with
the Netware Requester not allowing them to use IPX/SPX calls from WIN-OS/2. I
believe this has changed with the lastest 2.11 requester but Cheyenne hasn't
updated ARCServe Manager yet.
