The latest is LanMan 2.0. I believe it was released sometime
early this month (November).

Someone from Microsoft care to answer? Not talking for
Microsoft, I believe you got to be an OEM.

I think the OS/2 LanMan SQL server has been out for at least
a year and I believe it is marketed by Aston-Tate.

I believe it is available from IBM as an upgrade. Alternatively
if you are an OEM, you should be able to get it.

There is a small and growing number of PD programs for OS/2 but
I'm not sure if there is any PD PM-specific development tools.

You're welcome.

I'll e-mail PKZIP to you.
