This should be straight forward. Once you invoke NETU from the PC side,
you'll be prompted a series of questions.  To define a virtual node, 
use the Node Authorization section.  You will then get to a dropdown
list of all the possible protocols. Choose the one you are using (Lan
Work place). You'll need to obtain the server's INGRES installation id
and the servers IP address before invoking NETU. Installation ID can be 
found out using 'ingprenv1 II_INSTALLATION' and the IP address is in 
/etc/hosts.  After the NODE info. is define, you'll have to define
the users' authorizations.  Refer to the INGRES/NET Manual.
