MIT does not have a site license for LAN Manager. MIT does have a 1000 user
license for LAN WorkPlace for OS/2. This is a very different product and I
do not recommend that you use it at this time.
People could make a more informed reponse to your question if you explained
more about how you want to use the network for your group. Are you looking
for a peer to peer or client server approach? Do you have a clear idea of
what applications you wish to run? Are the CAO summit applications
important to your group? Are you looking for Internet access?
