I believe so - may have done it once.

Yes, with the exception of the GENDATA disk.  That is the serialized
disk from each set, and each install must use the GENDATA disk specific
to the license for that server.

What's the latest version?  I found 1.31.  But that's dated Dec 1991.

This is good, but, you should follow the above set command with:

  set path=

then login to the server, then

  set path=%path%;%opath%
                 ^

If you are running WP as a network installation (starting it with the /NT=
parameter), then you can tell it to talk directly to the netware print
queue (Select Printer, Edit, Port, Other, then give it the print queue
name -> that is the gist, I am doing this from memory).  Then the user
does not have to do a capture, etc.

This type of information is stored in the .SET file.  Make sure that
the default is set this way (in the installation directory, named
WP{WP}.SET) and then all future new SET files will be created using
this template.

For reasonably priced commercial packages with DOS & Windows support as well 
as good reporting & planning features....

Check out:
   Sitelock from Brightworks   - Req. TSR on client.  Hard (if poss.) to
				 bypass.  Includes virus protection.
   Meter from Saber Software   - No memory overhead.  Platform independent.

This is, of course, MHO, but I think anyone who is willing to pay for a 
commercial package will agree with me.  If anyone knows of a good freeware 
product,  by all means do tell!

Xnetdb is a network monitoring tool based on X Windows and SNMP which
also has integrated database and statistic viewing capabilities.  Xnetdb
will determine and display the status of routers and circuits it has
been told to monitor by querying the designated sites and displaying the
result.  Additionally, it also has integrated database functionality in
that it can display additional information about a site or circuit such
as the equipment at the site, the contact person(s) for the site, and
other useful information.  Finally it can gather designated statistical
information about a circuit or router and display it on demand.

Xnetdb is available via anonymous ftp from thor.oar.net (131.187.1.135) in
the /pub directory.

As long as you've purchased a legal copy for each workstation that it's
going to be used on, you're legal, as I understand it. If you add more
workstations, then you either get more copies of WP, or install a metering
program to limit the number of concurrent users to the number of copies
you already own.

>Other ideas? Thanks.    rc

I suppose you could call WP and ask about their LAN licensing policies;
this is a very murky area. I haven't seen anyone volunteering to fight a
court battle to clarify the issue, either.

One posibility would be to use Reflection series emulators from Walker,
Richer 6 Quinn, Inc. together with their Reflection Network Series
software.  A product called LAT Connection gives you LAT connections
(to VAX or whatever LAT service) simultaneously with IPX.  No need for
node numbers etc.  They also have TCP Connection, if you need BOTH LAT
and TCP/IP connections (together with IPX).

Reflection series have VT emulators up to VT340 on DOS, and up tu VT320
on Windows (they'll soon have VT340 on Windows).

>5 works fine.

And I'll beg to differ with this writer. Anyone who's been thru NetWare
Upgrades from 4.61 -> 1.0 -> 2.0a -> 2.1x -> 3.x as well as the upgrades
from DOS 2.x -> 4.x -> 5.0 knows the pain and anquish that boot roms can
cause.

Having said that, RPL is a godsend for a secure environment......

I saw your note to another novell list subscriber and thought i could
also ask you a couple of mac related questions.

We are in the process of installing a 65 mac, 10 pc, novell network.
At the school we aslo have to separate (but interconnected) and large
pc networks. We were planning to buy the novell c interface for mac
to do some programming, etc. We will also be installing pegasus mail
for mac and try to get access to the internet thoguht someking of mac
compatible tcpip package (NOS?).

The questions I have are the following:
1) What is the best C compilcer for Mac? . I heard that Think C by
symantec is pretty good..
2) Do you know of a tape backup system that is compatible with both
dos and mac for one single volume? You see, if we install pmail we
must add the mac name space to the sys volume which must be backed up
frequently...
3) Do you have your mac net connected to the internet? if so, what
are you using?.

Thanks in advance,

We have a Novell 3.11 server providing (among other things) IP routing
services for our Unix boxes. We want to use BOOTP to assign IP addresses,
but the Novell box does not appear to forward the BOOTP requests. I have
a vague memory that there is a BOOTP forwarding agent that will allow
all our machines to use BOOTP.

Can someone help with a BOOTP forwarding agent to run on the Novell
server?

Thanks Hugh Anderson
