The GO NETS tool provides a menu to configure the IBM i NetServer and related file and print shares from your emulation session. It includes interfaces to the NetServer APIs, as well as a menu of commands.

  3. Create the installation program: CRTCLPGM NETSRVCMD/TZLSINST QUSRTOOL/QATTCL
  4. Call the installer to create the GO NETS menu: CALL NETSRVCMD/TZLSINST NETSRVCMD
