I'm writing a paper comparing UNIX LANs (NFS/RFS - TCP/IP) with
OS/2 LAN Manager.  I know enough at the application and 
programmer level to do a decent comparison but don't know much
about the underlying protocols which LAN Manager uses.  I do
know a little about NetBIOS (network control blocks and all that)
but aren't there any error checking protocols and possibly
multiple-layers of protocols similar to the ISO model?

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
