Better yet, what program under Windows NT is supposed to manage this. There seems to be a suite of software for Windows and Windows NT on the same CD. The manual does not really state if all the function in the Windows applications are picked up by some other Windows NT application.

So, which application (manager) do you need to use to configure this value correctly? (I would think it should be configured during install process).

Thanks again.
