Hubert Lelong coughed up fur ball on all's plate about server and W95

Make sure you have the OS2 namespace loaded on your server, this will give 
you long filenames for Win95.
Also to store the desktop settings for a Win95 station you could use user & 
station profiles. your (Win95) resource kit will have further information.
