Comments 
BioNet 2.6.1a has a server builder. This server builder allows each BioNet server to be custom created. Almost all of the server’s commands can be disabled using the server builder. An example of this is making the Open/Close CD-ROM command not work. The server builder now creates servers that are compatible on Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 instead of two separate servers.
