Subject: Re: Netware Questions (going from 2.2 to 3.11)

$        1. We have a SUN IPC workstation that we would like the entire
$        network to be able to access.  Currently we have one PC on the
$        network with an ethernet card running LAN Workplace for DOS 4.0.
$        This works fine for this person but we would like everyone to be
$        able to access the SUN machine.  What do we need to do to allow
$        users on the network (if we did go to 3.11) to access the SUN
$        machine and if possible, have the SUN access our server.

   LWP4DOS (or the server-based version, Lan WorkGroup for DOS) will allow
PCs to telnet and ftp etc. into your Sun.  NetWare NFS will allow the
Sun to mount NetWare volumes via NFS.  Is this the level of access between
the two worlds you desire?  I believe there's a product available
to simulate a DOS machine on the Sun (I think Insignia's SoftPC is
available on the Sun).  I think there's also a program available that
turns a Sun into a NetWare fileserver.

$        2. We would like to possibly put a SQL server or similar database
$        engine on our server.  I am aware of Novell's Netware SQL v3.0
$        product and was wondering if ther are any other similar products
$        out there that are similar that we could look at.

   Novell, Gupta, Sybase and Oracle all have SQL server NLM packages;
in fact, one of the servers in our office is running the first three
right now for development of two systems for clients.  None of them
is perfect; most of them are _not_ cheap (for Sybase, and possibly for
some others, watch out for the _mandatory_ support contract).  Not
all of them are terribly stable; Sybase's first release was absolutely
brutal, but they've got most of the bugs out (and one of the bugs is
a result of a bug in CLIB.NLM).

$        3. How complicated is the move from 2.2 to 3.11?

   Depending on how you plan to do it, not necessarily very difficult.
Novell has utilities available that will allow you to upgrade via
a tape drive, upgrade from one box to another across a network, or
even upgrade right in place.  Note that none of these methods are
perfect; you will lose passwords and, depending on how you do it,
you may lose ownership, trustee rights, etc.  There was a document
posted here only a couple of days before this question explaining
Novell's new upgrade-in-place utility.

I could, but I can't think of one instance in which a company has
taken over a competitor, and the acquired company hasn't been destroyed,
with their products "made compatable with the overall corporate plan" 
(i.e., replaced, compatability be dammed).

NCR was a major manufacturer of 680x0-based computers. They were bought
by AT&T; no more 68Ks. Same with Fortune Computers (bought by my employers;
no longer exists).

Seen any DeSotos or Ramblers lately? AMC killed the DeSotos after buying
the company, then Chrysler killed the Ramblers. What's left of the AMC plants
build Chrysler designs. Not to mention Willis Jeeps.

Cars, airplanes, computers, software; takeover by a competitor has always
led to dissolution. It happens in all industries, with companies of all
sizes. I see no reason that this will be any different; I've seen the same
promises in the past.

Tried with NW 3.11, FILER 3.65 and SALVAGE 3.56 - still flagged execute
only.  Is it another version of SALVAGE that is the culprit? (anyone got

I can think of three potential solutions to this problem, first is to run 
a packet driver shim over ndis (pktdrv.dos- is the one I have seen) and then 
run a packet driver ipx over that.  (Kind of a memory hog way of doing it 
but then ndis has never been exactly slim anyway)

Option number two is to use the ndis ipx available from NetManage. 
Phone is (408) 973-7171.  The package name is IPX/link. I think that the 
cost was a rather pricey $150 per workstation.

ODINSUP is the third option.  It comes with dosup6.zip and I think 
dosup5.zip. Available from novell's ftp site.  It lets you run ndis 
packages over an odi protocol stack.  I haven't used this method but I think 
that if I wanted to solve the problem for any number of users it would be 
the first method I would try.

        One set of solutions is to run ODI drivers and place on top
either Lan WorkPlace for DOS or MS-DOS Kermit. Then setup IP routing
in your NW 3.11 server (no IP routing in NW 2.x) to have the server
relay the IP packets between the Arcnet and Ethernet wires.
        Another is to run the Arcether Packet Driver (looks like Ethernet
to programs, encapsulates IP within Arcnet frames down below) and have
matching untunneler, say KA9Q TCP/IP, software running on a separate PC.
        A variation on this is to run Novell LWP's IPTUNNEL to tunnel
IP inside of Arcnet packets. The server then has to untunnel. I haven't
tried this approach since my place is all Ethernet.

  I've tried Sytos and was somewhat disappointed with it.  It was the

from Mountain.

  What can you afford?  Go big as servers usually grow (add HD) and it

  Absolutely.  No question about it (if you can afford it.

  Now you get the idea.
  I've found the best server based software is
ArcServe from Cheyenne Software.  Works with many tape drives and SCSI
adapters.  Handles complete tape library functions.  Will archive
files and prune from server.  Will also mirror volumes on different
servers.  Also backs up the workstations.
  I've had luck with WangTek 525MB drive.  Also heard Archive 525MB
drive is good but if it dies, it takes Archive many moons to fix
(typically heard 3-4 months.)  Haven't had the bucks to try the 2.2GB
drives yet.

I once had exactly the same problem.  I thought I was sunk, but I
fixed quite easily.  I think the solution involved switching console
screens to the pserver screen (if you do not recall the great "How
do I switch screens" thread, lookup Rconsole in your system admin
manual).  After that I got my console prompt back.

Wrong - it all gets lost.

The fastest way to wipe a volume is to delete it, and recreate it, sorry
you'll need to do a restore on the server

Get your wires crossed!  I have a TP cable just for connecting a station
directly to the server.  The color scheme on each end is as follows:

wh/or  or  wh/bl  wh/gr  gr  bl  wh/br  br

wh/bl  bl  wh/gr  wh/or  gr  or  wh/br  br
             ?      ?
           wh/or  wh/gr

Sorry, I can't make out the colors on a couple of wires.  I did not make
the cable nor did I figure it out.  I'm not that smart.  It does work
though.  I hope this helps.

Subject:      error reading from load file

Today I received the above error message while loading various
lan drivers from the DOS partition of a 3.11 server.
The manual says "Get a new copy of the loadable module or
replace the disk". A new copy of the module (smcpluss.lan)
did not help. Chkdsk on the DOS partition showed no problem.
I can boot from the DOS partition and I can launch server.exe.
Server is ps2/95 with 4-400MB drives (all IBM SCSI). DOS
partition is 10MB. What kind of hardware service should I do?
