	Hi,
	Can the Novell Access Server (or is it Netware Access Server!) handle
	graphics?  I asked this question at the "Novell University" when it was
	here in Berlin Earlier this year (June) and was told, "YES".
	I've just set it up and it doesn't, do I have to do something special?

	Both the Access server and the PC I connected to it have VGA card
	and I have also disabled the VGA to CGA function (erm, I also enabled it
	and there was no difference!)

	Thanx

We had the access server for a 5 day trial and never got it to do graphics
correctly.  Part of it had to do with applications trying to use
expanded memory, which the access server is using for QEMM, but we
didn't have time to try the options.

It will not display the WordPerfect preview screen regardless of the
configuration - Microdyne (makes a custom PC that runs the Novell
software) blames a bug in Wordperfect.  Other graphics programs simply
lock up the computer after displaying most of the opening screen.  (We
tried Quattro Pro and Harvard).

Also note that the Access Server changes your drive mappings when it logs in
so your environment will not be the same as a "normal" log-in.

All in all I think that you might have to experiment with each software
package to get it to work.  Others on this list have posted that they have
had good success with the Access Server.

Subject:      Re: Netware 3.11, MAC NLM 3.01, and Volumes

Joe,

I'm in the process of configuring a v3.11 server for Windows and Macs,
and I'm confused on the issue of exchange of files between the Win apps
and Mac apps. We are supporting WinWord and MacWord, so we want our
users to be able to use either program and exchange files.  How would
you recommend setting up volumes to support this?  I think Novell is
wishy-washy on this point, if you look at the Installation book, they
recommend multiple volumes. But in the Concepts book, they describe
MacApps, WinApps, etc. directories on the SYS volume.

I'd like to make this setup easy for my users to use, support interoperability
and make it relatively simple for me to manage.  As you can tell, this is new
to me, so I'd like to get it right the first time if I could.  I'd appreciate
any help given.

Thanks,

John

Jeff,
  I encountered this problem too. The message was issued because an 802.3
server on the backbone was down (my NET.CFG insisted on ethernet_II anyway).
If this server was up, then I would be able to see it and the ethernet_II
servers too. If it was down, then the message was issued.
  I determined that the card/driver were the culprits (WD8003e/WDPLUS.SYS)
so I changed to newer stuff. So far no problem. In order to see what you're
facing you should publish your NET.CFG. I think an important setting is the
'frame/envelope type'.

You can however do:

where password.fil is a file containing your password.

Subject:      IBM Laser 5E

Greetings,

Let me start off by saying I have connected 19 HP Laser Printers(IIs,IIPs,
IIIs and IIIPs) to our network.  14 of them are connected via rprinter
with the remaining using dedicated pserver.exe.  They all work!!
Somebody here got the idea that they would rather have an IBM laser
printer rather that the HPIIIP(believe it or not it was cheaper).  My
problem is that the IBM works fine as a dedicated printer for a
particular workstation(IBM 35sx), but it doesn't as a network printer
connected with rprinter. For a one page document, it'll print 5 lines,
then spit the page out. Print the next 5 lines, then spit that page
out... and so on.  After about 10 of these pages you can stack them all
together, hold them up to the light and you have yourself a pretty good
looking document.

Rprinter and pserver are v1.22.

Any ideas??

Thanks in advance,

Gary Wilkes

Shouldn't be a big deal as long as the HP III (IIISi?) is in postscript
mode.

Basically what you want to do is create a queue in AppleTalk which is
unserviced (ie: has no printer defined and has a -wb flag on it in the
atps.cfg file). This creates a queue viaible on AppleTalk that macs can
print to. But ATPS just queues the jobs, it makes no effort to print them.
Then have the PSERVER the services your HP printer service the ATPS queue
as well. The jobs show up on the printer via the PSERVER.

Works for us.

We have been experiencing similar problems here. We have found that two
things may need to be changed to make the modem work. Make sure the modem
is communicating asynchronously and error correcting protocol is disabled.
For Hayes or Hayes compatible modems the &Q and &M may be the culprit?
The actual parameter varies from modem to modem, ie the apple (Hayes
compatible) is &K Refer to your modem manual for an explanation of command
set parameters. This was using HAYES or HAYES compatible modems!

I interpreted the request to be a need to select a different terminal type.
As if the one selected was wrong.  I do not know any way to determine the
terminal type selected unless you do it through the diagnostic port.

I once wrote a program that would do this on a 4994 and presumably also
on a Series/1.  But the 7171 simply doesn't make the termtype name
available, as far as I know.  There's a status query (I forget the
technical name for it now) that returns a number of parameters; Yale
apparently added the termtype to the list of values returned after they
had sold the system to IBM.

 We have a pool of v.22 bis modems connected to our 7171.  Some of our
 users are using newer modems with v.42 features.  Our problem is that
 once the modems have connected the newer modem tries to do some type
 of handshaking for the v.42 functions.  Because the older modems are
 directly connected to the 7171 they pass on these handshaking bits to
 the 7171.  The 7171 does not like this and locks up this port.  Is
 there a control character(s) that the remote user can type in to
 free the port or are they SOL at this point.  Thanks.

I don't know if this'll be of any help, but last week in ddn.mgt-bulletin
the DDN Network Information Center put out DDN MGT Bulletin 100 which
discussed a similar problem involving MNP Level 4 and 5 modems.

Their suggested workaround was as follows:

        a.  Dial the [other end] as usual.

        b.  After receiving the connect message on the modem, transmit
            control Q.

        c.  If the [other end] does not print on your terminal, wait a few
            seconds and then transmit a carriage return.

        d.  If this fails to cause the [other end's welcome message] to be
            displayed, repeat the process from step b.

(For the full text, ftp to nic.ddn.mil, cd into the directory ddn-news and
get the file ddn-mgt-bulletin-100.txt.)

I have not tried this workaround, but I intend to as we have had similar
difficulties here at Intermetrics when dialling in to our port selector using
MNP 4/5 or V.42 modems at home; the attempted modem handshaking confuses the
port selector's autobaud capability.

This does not require a mod.  It is a normal comand in the terminal defs.
Note: not all terminal defs define a character sequence for this.
The VT100 defines ESC ` , as "return to ENTER TERMINAL TYPE".

Does the question mean go to the terminal type message or output on the

enter terminal type message and acts like a power off.  I know of no way

You can just go into setup (SHIFT-F1), Initial Settings (4), and then
Initial Codes (5 I think).  Just set up your default options, and
that code will be used for all your documents (After you leave and go
back in).

Good Luck.

Subject:      list files - default display

Wednesday, August 12, 1992  8:26am

My default setting for List Files (F5) has somehow been set to 2 Long
Display.  I recall doing this some months ago, but cannot recall how I
did this or, more to the point, how to change default back to 1 Short
Display.  Can anyone help me with this?  Thanks

A related question is whether the time required to obtain a list files
display is related to a) choice of Short vs. Long display and/or b) the
number of files in the subdirectory requested.  I have one subdirectory
which I use frequently that takes what seems an inordinate time to list.
It has many files with Document Names.  Is this slowing down the
display?

Thanks again  --roger

Hello Ingo,

(I tried to reply by e-mail to you, your mail system gave error message
"User unknown".)

You write:

> (like all ever saved versions).

I think your friend's problem is that he does not delete unwanted
items, but instead places new items on top of the old ones. If you
place, for example, a square on top of a circle so that the square
completely covers the circle, the circle is still part of the file,
and you will see it for an instant when the picture is redrawn. If
you don't want the circle, you must expicitly delete it before you
place the square in the picture.

So that tells you what to do in the future. Now what about your existing
drawings? Well, you must bring the covered items to the foreground. This
can be done by selecting the foreground item and the clicking on the
"move to background"-icon. Deselect. Then select the covered item
(which you now see) and delete it.

Hope this helps.
