I have installed exceed and had no serious problems with it. (This reply is

I guess that you have checked that your lwp tnvt220 is working OK. (Just to 
verify your ip transport is set up ok)

It was quite a while since I installed it, so I cant really remember what 
problems I came up against, but it has certainly been very useful.

No need to FTP a driver.  The windows driver for the C-Itoh 8510 should

IPX can't tell the tunnel from any other NIC, so it wouldn't have any
reason to treat it differently.  My guess is that some intermediate IP
router discards packets when it's waiting for an ARP reply.  Since the
watchdog packets are only sent once in a while, i suspect that when each
watchdog arrives, this hypothetical router has already discarded the ARP
entry that it learned from the last watchdog packet, so it has to ARP
again, discarding the watchdog again.  Looking at a packet trace, as Joe
suggests, should tell you if this is the case.  I think you'll see that
the watchdogs are being swallowed by some intermediate router.

Ironically, if this is the case, the solution might be to *decrease*
the time between watchdog packets.  By making the watchdog packets
more frequent, you might be able to get the second to arrive before
the ARP cache entry for the first is discarded.  (Well, actually, a
better solution would be to get a better router: dropping packets
while waiting for ARP resolution isn't really very good engineering.)

        Whoa. The file server serves files, nothing of DOS is executed in
the server nor does the server run DOS as an operating or file system. So
look at your packet rates to form an opinion about available bandwidth
with the applications of choice. Generally very little server cpu activity
is involved in serving files, but disk and lan adapters are very important
to good performance. Do your own benchmarking rather than using some stylized
number generator and that will be closer to your real requirements.

John,

You can get pcont21a.zip from wuarchive.wustl.edu in the mirrors/msdos/lan
directory.  You can probably find pserv27a.zip at splicer.cba.hawaii.edu or
the novlib directories at ns.novell.com (137.65.4.1)

Hope this helps.

Mark

When you add a user to a group, that user becomes security equivalent to
the group. Netware does not limit the number of objects a user can be security
equivalent to, but when determining access rights to a directory, it uses
only the first 32 security equivalences and ignores the rest! You will have
to work around this limitation.

Cheers, John

Sorry if this isn't directly applicable to Novell-- I don't know what other

Apple Corp is beating down our doors with a very attractive HEPP program.
We buys MACs etc. at a very hefty discount & then resell them to faculty,
staff & students. In effect, the administration becomes a reseller to our
own staff, faculty & students. Looks like we're getting into the computer
business!

Does anyone know of an IBM-type corporation who might have a similar

other people. What clones do you recommend in labs? For users?

Please respond direct; I'll post a summary.

Link error 9 occurs whne the linker tries to link an obj thats not there.

Look in you net$something.lnk

you will see something like lan_drv_.001\3c503.obj
when the file will exist in lan_drv_.001\3c503.obj

all you need to do is copy the offending file, ( or hack the .lnk )
It's been quite something since I last did a 2.15 install but from memory
there are 2 type of file one's a descriptor which is the
heading you see such as "fred blogss lan card rev 69.xx01" the other is the obj,
the descriptor has the location inside it and some times these change,
consequently if you mix the verisons you'll mix get these kind of errors.

Just copy and have fun

Subject:      RE: Print Screen

Set up your capture command as `capture l=1 ti=0' Other options (banners,
byte stream versus text etc.) may be added as desired but the timeout is the
essential one as all print jobs will go to the printer as fast as capture
grabs them. Print screens always go to lpt1 so there's no need to capture any
other port for this purpose. Be warned of course that printing screen dumps
can cause chaos on a printer as the paper feed will be completely screwed up
by them. Unless this printer is used for nothing else I would suggest that
you or your manager set up print job configurations specifically for print
screens to do two form feeds after each one so as to wind paper cleanly out
of the printer and leave the next page set at the proper top of form.
Printcon and Printdef are beastly utilities but they do (eventually) work.

Subject:      netbios and netsentinel

The problem: we run netbios on all our workstations (ws) so that a
software will recognize the protection block installed on a ws. That's
fine when all the stations are connected to the same wire where the
block is. BUT we have one station physically connected to another
server; that station attaches at boot time to the same server where the
block resides; the application won't run; it seems that the protection
block is not recognized in that instance.

Any ideas?
Is it my version of netbios.exe (21506, 5-13-91, 10:21)?
(where can I find the latest version?)

The set-up:

In our lab, we use a software which is (unfortunately) protected
with the netSentinel block: we put one block on a workstation
and all other ws can access the software (which runs under windows).

The requirement is that at each ws, we must run NETBIOS.EXE; so, we
load the following: ipx, netx, netbios and then run a proprietary
login (I guess we could run netbios after the login in a batch file
and unload it afterwards with the /u command but we haven't felt a need
for that).

Both networks run netware 286 2.2 on Ethernet.

Hi there,

Your access denied error could be due to a few things. I have had this problem a
  also in the past (Netware 2.15 !).

If you have auto backup enabled, and let's hope you have, ours is every 15 mins,
 s,then you need access rights to the backup directory. We call ours SCRATCH. If
you're logged in with supervisor rights when testing this then forget it. You
are probably aware that these things need to be tested as an ordinary user.

By the way, auto backup is set from within WordPerfect!

Also you may not have the maximum rights mask set correctly for users in a
directory that WordPerfect is using.

Try those ideas. Good Luck.

I thought that I replied to a message recently about what Windows driver
to use for the Apple ImageWriter series of dot matrix printers but I
never got an echo of it from the list so I'll send it again.

If you want to use an Apple ImageWriter I, II or an old Apple DMP with
Windows, use the
C-Itoh 8510 printer driver in the Windows printer setup program.  It
works well with local ports as well as over the network if you have the
proper software installed on your file server (NW for Mac).
Hope this information helps.  I've used the drivers quite successffully
on many occasions.

I couldn't even get it to do this. The files from dosup6 use real 802.2 frames,
and when I played around with it I got ethernet ver II frames with '0' as the
protocol type. Do I still need econfig?

I have tried both packet drivers and ODI, and failed. I can't find out
what to put in the net.cfg when using packet-driver (intelpd). Anybody
know ? I want to use ordinary ethernet ver II frames, with both ODI and
packet driver.

Also all of my servers are on the Token-Ring on the other side of a Cisco,
should I expect any particular problems ?
