We've got an IBM token ring setup with Lan Server 2.0 running on an os/2 2.0
machine.  The workstations are currently set up as DOS requestors.  If we
switch to OS/2 workstations do we need to have the extended services or is
the OS/2 requestor sufficient for basic networking?  I don't want the comm
manager (no need to talk to 3270) or the database manager.  This is a
significant point becuase of the cost of ES (roughly $400).
 
Any suggestions to improve my limited knowledge would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks..
