I came from Indiana, and yes I do get a lot of the "WWW" kidding. I am
retired from a career in IT and teach at a community college, so me and
my Welsh name get a lot of exposure. My sister (the geneology nut) tells
me that Webb means "Weaver" in Welsh, and is a very common name in the
South-Central part of the US. The Webb you want to be related to is Del
Webb, a realestate developer that holds a big chunk of Arizona :-)
The DosLanmanager 4 disk set is at
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/clients/lanman
I hate Microsoft's website: I use it as an example of a terrible design
in my classes. For those that want to access Microsoft's software
libraries, ftp is much more civilized. If you have a command line ftp
client, it's a piece of cake to navigate their archives.
