Can someone please give me a site where the latest version of pserver resides?
I know this has been asked before, but I didn't need it then.  Thanks.

Subject:      NOTES-type system for Novell

Does anyone know of a VAX NOTES - type system for Novell ?  We need a system
for logging and tracking work requests.  We'd especially like to add a segment
that sends a mail message to the appropriate personnel with a call is logged.

More specifically, we want to log the initial request, then track the 'history'
of it --- what was done, when, and when the request is complete.  We'd like to
be able to view this 'log' to see the status of a request.

Thanks !

Hm.. what about configuring this pserver on both file-servers. This

	I am currently running DOS 5.0 with Windows 3.0 and using NET5 in
place of NETX. I simply havent tried NETX on my machine yet but see no reason
why it would cause problems. If you are having problems, try loading your
network shells globally instead of local to a windows session. ie. If you load
your IPX, NETX, and login BEFORE running Windows, you should not have any
problems. At least I'm not....
ALSO.. use your DOS=HIGH,UMB in your CONFIG.SYS and LOADHIGH the shells to give
youself as much low memory as possible. In your PIF file for DOS, check to see
if you have Background on. (This is a 386?)
	If all else fails, try using NET5 and see if the problems still
remains. After that, try another type machine to make sure its not hardware
related. After that ??????????

I suggest using the PD shim that uses IPX on the arcnet, and in a pc with
both the arcnet and ethernet cards, run PC-Route to take the arcnet IPX-based
tcp/ip and convert them to PD-based tcp/ip.  For example in the arcnet
station, autoexec would contain:
>    ipx
>    ipxpkt
>    netx
and the router's pc's autoexec would contain:
>    ipx
>    ipxpkt
>    e-pd
>    netx
>    pcroute
I am unsure of the exact names for these programs, but that is the gist of
it.  Now you can use PD over arcnet because the dedicated pc will convert
them from one media to another.

We had something weird happen here.  On a 200 meg drive a user
created a file with a size of 880 meg.  It also appeared to
take up no room on the disk because when it was deleted it
didn't release any disk space.

Running vrepair didn't find any errors before or after the file was
deleted.

Has anyone ever had this happen?

Anyone know what happened.

I had a little extra time and thought I'd look at Btrieve, thinking we
may be able to use it...or not (-8.  I'm looking at the Btrieve Installation
and Operation manual.  It seems to do a nice job of getting you through
the installation, but really not much about how to use the thing.  Am I
missing a manual or what?  Do I have to write apps in some other language,
like C?  All I've found is that you access Btrieve files using function
calls, but nothing about what the calls are or how to use them.

Can someone point me toward the right documentation?

All,
    While I was away at a seminar last week the primary departmental file for
one of our departments crashed.  My technician wrote down the Abend message
as "... out of workspace on find first file.  Extended Error 255".  The machine
in question is a 386-33 with 16 MB of memory running Netware 3.11.  Of course,
I was unable to find any mention of this error message in any of the documen-
tation.  This has been a very stable server up to now.  Anybody out there have
an idea as to what scenario might have caused this crash and/or what can be
done to prevent its reoccurrence.

No, I don't think BOOTP comes standard with SUNs. It is, however, PD,
and you can locate a version using ARCHIE.

BOOTP packets will get forwarded over the server IF and ONLY IF you load
BOOTPFWD.NLM and TCPIP1.NLM on your server (the latter is a special edition
of tcpip.nlm). Both are available via anonymous ftp from netlab.usu.edu.

Ken, I think you used the wrong formula. Old manuals had a decimal
point out of place.

The formula for disk space memory requirements for a DOS-only name
space, is

megs = (.023*disk-space-in-megs)/(blocksize-in-kbytes).

If the block size is 4k (the default), and you have a 2gig disk, you
need 12 megs (plus about 2 megs for file server normal stuff plus
whatever NLMS you need.


For each name space, you need an additional


   (.032*disk-space-in-megs)/(blocksize-in-kbytes)


or 16 megs.

Thus if you have Mac name space, for example, you will need

   12+16+2 = 30 megs!

And if you want OS/2 as well, you are up to 46 megs!


I don't know how Netware 3.11 uses the name space stuff. For
example, if you only have two files in Mac format, and 20,000 in DOS
format, does the system still require all that memory? Or does it
just need enough for the two Mac files?


What I did here was set up a small volume (50 meg) for Mac users,
and the rest for DOS users. But that isn't too good if people want
to share WordPerfect files, for example.

Does anyone out there (Art?) know how Novell uses memory for name
space support?

Keywords: PSERVER , 2.15
Date: 10 Apr 92 15:02:44 GMT
Organization: Atlantic Computer Institute

I know someone that has a 2.15 network that uses core printing. They now 
need a remote printer so I loaded on their PSERVER software ( version 1.1 ).
When I sent a job to a queue it just stayed there and the print 
server reported the printer as being off-line. Any subsequent jobs that I 
submitted would get printed ( even with the first job still stuck and 
reporting off-line ). My first guess is that there are bugs with this 
version of PSERVER. 

Before I go ahead and try it , could anyone tell me if PSERVER V1.22 will 
operate correctly on Netware 2.15 ?

							Thanks.

	Hi!  This is a question for all the people using LAN WP 4 DOS under
windows 3.1, so hit 'n' now if this doesn't concern you!

	I think I have found three ( or one! ) bugs in either Lan WP 4 DOS or
Win 3.1.  I can cause the File Express program to crash in one of three
situations:

	1.	Resize the window to less than 1/2 the width of the screen.
		
	This will cause windows to hang, requiring a Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence to
kill the application.


	2.	Printing a file from a remote system that does not have a valid
		DOS file name, when the option to prompt for a new file name is
		selected.

	This causes a General Protection Fault in module WFTPFS.DLL at line
0009:06BD.

	3.	When first run, selecting the 'application options' selection
		from the 'options' menu.

	This causes a General Protection Fault in FILEXPRS.EXE at line
0010:019F. 

	None of these actions causes any problems when run under Windows 3.0a,
and I can reproduce these errors every time, with the same GPF each time.

	Is there a known compatibility problem between the two?

Here is my NET.CFG file ....

Folks,

I think i recall that somebody of You mentioned a utility to
circumvent the trouble RPRINTER makes when booting the machine that
has it loaded.

To make it clearer:
When You load RPRINTER via AUTOEXEC.BAT and reboot the machine, the
printserver will not have recognized that the printer that was
installed previously has gone, and refuse to re-install it. I know
that I can re-install RPRINTER successfully after waiting one
minute or so, but this is not acceptable since the RPRINTER machine I
am dealing with now is located in a student lab. No way to bring the
message (wait a minute- try again) through to them.

So, could the person that mentioned the utility would be so kind as
to post its name and location again?

Thanks,
J. Mennecke

A bootp daemon is available from several ftp sites that will allow a
unix box to be a bootp server. Bootparamd is Suns daemon that passes
info to the client at boot time telling it the necessary paths
and such so it can boot. Unfortunately Sun has not seen fit to get
with the rest of the world and use something other than RARP.

BOOTP is based on IP so it can be routed. The problem is that it is
a broadcast so won't be unless the router has some mechanism for
handling them. Several router manufacturers support forwarding of
BOOTP to a host or list of hosts(cisco calls them helper addresses).
RARP is not an IP protocol so it can't be routed. It must be bridged
since it is an 802.3/ethernet protocol.
