This section explains how to determine the network protocol that you should use with the database engine. If you already know what protocol or protocols are supported on your network, you can skip this section.
If your network is 100% Microsoft, and you have a Server engine, then your network probably uses TCP/IP. The Server engine does not support NetBIOS.
It is possible to run Btrieve or ODBC applications over SPX on Microsoft networks.
If your network is 100% Microsoft, and you are using Workgroup engines, then you can use either NetBIOS or TCP/IP.
