Subject:      TCP and 3.11

There has been some talk recently about using TCP and NetWare 3.11.
I wasn't paying much attention because we weren't using it.  Wouldn't
you know it, now we have a unix box that we would like our Novell
IPX/SPX workstations to access.  Is it possible for a workstation
to be concurrently connected to a 3.11 server AND a unix server?
If so, how?  If not, what has to be executed on the server (?.nlm?)
and what has to be executed on the workstations to get to the unix
server?  We have a mix of cards (NE1000, NE2000, and Everex Speedlink).
I saw someone post an example autoexec.bat:

lsl
ne2000       <== I assume this is card dependent
ipxodi
odipkt 1 96  <== What is this?
netx

What is the address of the ftp server for the newest clarkson telnet
software.

Thanks in advance.

Subject:      Re: Burglar.nlm is now available via our listserver

 hello,

 yes it is me again (jan verhoeven). again in reply to the many mails tha
 have been getting over here.

 the file burglar.arj is widely available via Bulletin BoardS over here so if
 anyone thinks that by not spreading it around the problem is solved, he may
 think again. When dutch BBS computers carry the program, then soon all BBS
 computers all over the world have it (this is from personal experience).

 so indeed it is better to get the program and understand how it works and what
 risks it brings to your system than to put your face in the ground and think
 that you are and struisvogel (that's dutch for a bird that lives in africa and
 puts his head in the sand).


 well my computer still works and me
 also so send in your problems.

As you can see by my signature file, I'm called a "Lead Analyst/Programmer". 
But I was shanghaied from the the mainframe troops.  (Actually I still have
those responsibilities, too.  I've been heard to mutter that I ought to get two
paychecks, since I have two fulltime jobs.)  Actually, "computer guy" is a
better description of my actual work:  I seem to wind up doing whatever it is
that nobody else knows how.

It's a world-writable folder where deleted files are stored until the
"Trash" icon on the Mac desktop is emptied. Removing it is not a good
idea (actually, I don't know what happens if you remove it, but my
guess is that it wouldn't be pretty).

Cheers!

LOAD REMOTE <password>  on the fileserver, then at a workstation run
RCONSOLE, using the <password> set when you LOADed the NLM. This gives you
the console at your workstation. Exit by typing Shift+Escape.

We here at Texas State Technical College use a Unix box running under
ISC SVR3.2 V3.0 as our mailhub gateway to the Internet.

However, as we are a Novell-centric environment and wish to deliver mail
to our users when they login to the Novell file server we use Pegasus
Mail and Charon extensively.  That is our primary mail system, in fact I
think that I am the only user on campus out of a possible 500 machines
(and 10s more coming on-line daily) that uses a mailer other than
Pegasus Mail.

We are running into the same issue that you appear to be running into at our
Systems level.  If you didn't spend any money on the implementation of the
system then it must not be useful or compatible with anything else.  We have
found that the Public Domain/Shareware implementations have been extremely
compatible and useful beyond most commercial software.

If you have other questions please don't hesitate to write or call.

I know that my problem is not a NetWare problem, but since Novell
allows you to create large volumes across drives, I was wondering if
anyone knows a fix for the Macintosh's OS bug where it can not write
to a volume that is bigger than 2 gig.

I heard that there was an init or something.

X-mailer:     Pegasus Mail v2.3 (R3).

Someone asked how to get archives.

The general answer for the question "How to I do ____ with a list
server?" is to send a the "help" command to the listserve.  The body
of you message is the word "help" and it is addessed to
"listserv@some_node_name" (in our case the address is
"listserv@suvm").  The listserver will tell you what command it
honors and briefly what they do.

The specific answer is shown here in an excerpt from the output to
my subscription request to this list:

> Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can
> obtain a list of  the available archive  files by sending  an "INDEX

The archives are great--try them.  Be forwarned though that you are
limited to the volume you can download per day.  I could only get
about 4 archives at a time.

Has anyone had these problems with Pegasus mail?

1. I created a group in SYSCON (I have supervisor equivalence) but it
didn't appear when I used the List function (F2)

2. One of our servers has 366 users on it, but the List function with
Pegasus (F2) only shows 306 users - 60 are missing.

3. I created a group (Distribution List) in Pegasus with 39 names in
it, and it sent the message to all but 2 users.  The error message
was "User SSW01/XXXXXXXX not known".  SSW01  is the name of the file
server.  However, I was able to send individual messages to those
same users.

Any light shed upon these results will be greatly appreciated!

I am using Novell 3.11 and is writing a Windows application that
generates novell interrupts. In particular, I am using interrupts
E3h 15h and then E3h 16h to get the current login name. My program
runs fine on Win3.1 in 386-enhanced mode. However, when I run Win3.1
in Standard Mode, the same program hangs.

Any advice ?

You can setup lwp4dos on your new server on let all users on the nw
network access the ipc. The otherway around is also possible with nw-
nfs, which consists out of a few nlm's and a nfs name-space.
For e-mail to unix and netware, take a look at the pegasus-
mail/charon combination.

There are better ones then nw-sql, but they are (you guessed) more
expensive. Take a look at gupta's SQLBase and (even better and...)
Sybase SQL-Server NLM. For theses products you need a 486-33 or 486-
50 with 16Mb ram.

Not that much, but it can be hairy. Make sure you convert the
bindery's to 3.11 and make a good verified backup so you can always
go back.
The rest is rtfm...

The problem is that 3 of your NIC are on the same IP network i.e the
155.100.85.0 net in order for netware (or most other systems) to route
packets you must use a different IP net address for each interface.

Notes: using the MASK 255.255.255.0 (a class C mask) the first 3 bytes of
the IP address make up the net address, the last byte makes up the node
address.
Again the net portion must be different for each NIC!
