I haven't connected OS/2 to the specific platforms you
mention here, but, it has no trouble at all connecting to
an NT Workstation and/or server.  I'd think that you can do
the same with Win3.1/DOS and Win95.  I'm running a two
system OS/2-NT peer-to-peer with another OS/2-NT system
here.  No matter which way either system is booted I can
connect one to the other (NT to OS/2, NT to NT, OS/2 to NT
etc).  They don't call it OS/2 "Multi Protocol" for
nothin'! (smile).
