Uninstalling NetBIOS over TCP/IP manually

In case MPTS refuses to uninstall NetBIOS over TCP/IP or crashes, here is a cookbook to do it manually.

1. You have to edit the file x:\IBMCOM\protocol.ini (where x: is your bootdrive).

1.1. Look for the section [IBMLXCFG]!
Remove the line tcpbeui_nif = tcpbeui.nif.
Leave the remaining lines of the section as they are.

1.2. Look for the section [NETBIOS]
Remove the line ADAPTER1 = tcpbeui$,1. Leave the remaining lines as they are.

1.3. Look for the section [tcpbeui_nif]
Remove the complete section.

1.4. Save protocol.ini.

2. Edit CONFIG.SYS

2.1. Remove (or put a REM in front of) the line DEVICE=D:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL\TCPBEUI.OS2.

2.2. Save your CONFIG.SYS.

3. Run LMSync.EXE

4. Reboot.
