    TITLE:  AST Remote-Query and  Windows 95

    SUMMARY

       The AST Remote-Query may not work in Windows 95 on a Bravo MS-T
       system.

       This issue affects the following systems: 501954 and 501959.

    ISSUE

       A management workstation cannot remote-access another workstation's
       information through the AST AssetPak Remote-Query if users are
       running Windows 95.

    BACKGROUND

       The Remote Access Program (RAP) cannot be started on Windows 95
       because the RAP utility cannot detect IPX/SPX protocol on a
       Windows 95 workstation if this workstation is using Microsoft
       Client for Netware.

    ACTION

       Users must select the Netware Workstation ODI shell 3.X or 4.0
       for AST AssetPak.
