client access windows 95 and v4r3
Vic, We haven't had any going from 3.2 to 3.7 to 4.2 to 4.3 to 4.4 to 4.5. Everything works fine and we have a mix of clients using CA 3.2, CA 4.4, and now CA 4.5. Possibly one reason is the strict use of TCP/IP, no more APPC/APPN connections. They did present some problems. Happy New Year. Jack

client access windows 95 and v4r3
Vic, We are at v4r3 with a mixture of TCP/IP and APPC/APPN connections running from Win95. No major problems. Some comments: 1. TCP/IP is easy to setup but connections are more prone to drop during network congestion. 2. When setup properly, APPC/APPN is more stable than TCP/IP. However, setup is complicated, and memory requirements are much higher than TCP/IP. 3. In my experience, CA for DOS with APPC/APPN is the fastest and most solid of all connections. Most of our critical processing are done on PCs with CA for DOS and APPC/APPN connections. These number less than 5. Almost all others (over 300 of them), are now on TCP/IP running on Win95 and Win98. By the way, watch out for Windows 2000. It will require you to switch to a new client (CA Express) with a radically different set of requirements (and headaches).
