Subject:      Netbios for IPX/SPX on SCO

Hello Novellers

I am looking for a netbios version that works together with IPX/SPX
on SCO UNIX. To be clear: I have already IPX/SPX on SCO.

Is there anyone able to send me either:

- A source code of netbios above IPX/SPX
      or
- A description of netbios above IPX/SPX
      or
- An address where to get one of these
      or
- Any information you think will be valuable for me

Regards and thanks in advance,

in conjunction with Netware (IPX/SPX), Kermit 3.11 (TCP/IP Telnet), and
WinQVT (TCP/IP Telnet). I swapped out the 3C503 for a 3C509

Can anyone tell me what my problem is?  Kermit either hangs up or spews

Subject:      Help!! Please--ABEND

Can anyone help me with this continuing problem?  This is a copy
of the message I sent to the Ultrastor rep:

In August I upgraded our 3- year- old Zenith 386/25 from
Netware 2.15 to 3.11.  The old ESDI controller and drive would
not support 3.11 so I replaced them with the Ultrastor 12F24
controller and a Micropolis 1664-7.  I also upgraded the RAM
from 4 to 8 megs.  The network card is a Racal-Interlan NP600.

The server is periodically (every 1-3 days) crashing with the
ABEND message:
Nonmaskable Interrupt (Parity Error) Processor Exception
Parity error was generated by an I/O check.
Running process: Interrupt service routine (nested count 2)
Interrupted process: Polling process

We had full diagnostics done on the server and found a bad I/O
board, which we replaced with a new one that checks out ok.

The 12F24 is set to factory defaults.

Does this look like something that might be caused by a conflict
between the controller and other hardware, possibly the network
card?  The network card is a bus mastering device.  I was told
to check whether the controller is - the installation guide does
not mention this.

The controller is at interrupt 14, the network card at interrupt
15.

I remember reading that the controller must have a certain bios
level to support Netware 3.11.  The installation guide is dated
4/1/92, Revision A.  How do I check the bios revision for the
controller?

I would appreciate any thoughts you might have.

First piece of advice: try to avoid specifying too many parameters.
Most of the parameters have good defaults or are unnecessary.  The
GATE parameter, for example, is only required if the gateway specified
doesn't talk RIP.

OK, now that you've done that, i'll let you know that although the
console command line is limited to 80 characters, the limit to lines
in .NCF files is longer.  (128 characters or so, i believe.)  So even
though you can't type those commands in on the command line, you
should be able to use them in autoexec.ncf without any problem.

Finally, the last tidbit: although the TCP/IP supervisor's manual
doesn't mention this anywhere (so don't tell Tech support i told you
about it), it turns out that the parameter names can be abbreviated.
(In fact, some of the documented parameter names are actually
abbreviations of the *real* parameter name.  "Address" is legal, for
example, but it's documented as "Addr".)  So a quick look at the manual
tells us that "ad" can be used for "addr", "ar" can be used for "arp",
and all of the rest of the bind parameters can be abbreviated as a
single letter.  Maybe that will help you stuff it all in one line.

(I don't recommend abbreviating in this way unless it's absolutely
necessary, by the way.  For one thing, it makes it harder to read the
command line.  For another, although we can keep the documented
parameter names backwards compatible when we release the next version,
it's easy to see that if we add additional parameters, any undocumented
abbreviations in your autoexec.ncf may become ambiguous when you
upgrade.  This is good advice for any command line interface that allows
for abbreviation, not just those from Novell.)

HI,
It's common problem of PC computers.
Your memory chips are too slow.
There is two solution:
* ask for speed of your memory chips your servis man
  It's recommended for 33MHz - 70ns, 25MHz - 80ns (better 70ns)
* setup in your BIOS SETUP the different number of wait states
  setup the number of wait states for read and write command
  It's recommended 0 wait states for 33MHz(70ns), 25Mhz(80ns)
  for slow memory chips it is necessary setup 1 wait state.
  It is not good use 2 or 3 wait states. It is better use another memory.

Subject:      Watchdog time out

     Is there any way to disable the "connection watchdog" in NW 3.11?  If a
workstation is 'inactive' for a specified period of time, the "watchdog" will
break the connection.  This is rather irritating.  I have set the options
that effect the watchdog to their upper limits, but this still only allows a
connection to be idle for about 17.8 hours before clearing the connection.
Therefore, over the weekend, all of my print servers are kicked off the net.
HELP!

     Any information is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

You don't need "permission" to send mail via the Internet to a compuserve
post office box. The message from postmaster@compuserve.com is simply
stating that the address that was passed to it is wrong. I get returns like
this from postmasters 'all over the net' on approx. 10% of the messages I

I have Netware 3.11 running on an IBM PS/2 Model 95, and have the same
problem. I use EZARC (badged version of Arcserve), and thought that
it may be to do with this, however, looking back to when the system
was first set up, I had this problem before any tape drive/controller
was installed. I use 3COM 3C523 Ethernet Cards and IBM's own SCSI
disks.

Is anyone else having the same problem?

Is anyone from Novell listening?

Soon after novell came out with 3.11 I experienced that same error message -
i.e. "PRIMARY INTERRUPT CONTROLLER DETECTED A LOST HARDWARE INTERRUPT"
I was told that it was a leftover piece of debugging code producing that
message, and I could safely ignore it, and turn it off by using
":set display lost interrupt alerts = off" on the console.  I also noticed
that a change in interface cards and/or drivers to a newer version
tended to make the message go away (or at least less frequent).
I hope this helps, and I'd appreciate hearing any other information about
this.

   Using an 8088 PC for a print server is excrutiatingly slow, even with
   only 1 or 2 printers.  You are much better off, and your users will
   be much more satisfied with at least a 286 class machine as your
   print server.

   If you have too, the 8088 will work, but I would limit the number of
   printers you support to the least number possible.

What are you running on your server to support os/2?  I have 2 os/2 users who

appear to crash my srver when they run the redirector.  What exactly does the
 redirector do and do I need to load a name space or nlm to support it?



Thanks for whatever info you've got.

Subject:      Win 3.1 and Printing Options

Windows question in relation to Novell. At our campus, we have a 72
station lab for students with local printers, two high speed network
printers, and an administrative laser printer on ethernet. While it is
easy at the DOS level of applications to select a printer to route to
(the students see the local and the network printer, not the admin one),
using Windows 3.1, does anyone have an idea as to how to make some printers
visible to some users and not others?

All stations are remote boot, with the exception of 11 macintoshes, and
Saber Menu for DOS and Windows is heavily in use. We expect an upgrade
to the new Iconic Saber Menu and have heard about Saber print manager for
Windows, has anyone had any experience on this angle?

The ONLY reason for IPTUNNEL is if you can't route IPX.  This method
has a high overhead, and a low performance level.  Now some hints on
setting up routing.

#1 route don't bridge.  give each seperate location a individual
netowkr number.

#2  Base those network number on the coresponding IP subnets  this
greately assists in network tracking.

#3  and most important don't use 802.3 frames in a multiprotocol
enviornment.  These frames are most efficent in a Novell only
configuration, but cause conficts and network errors in a multi-
protocol enviornment.

We have a home grown printserver that works together with a valuecard
system to implement acconting. We use teh same cards that ar used on
the xeroxmachines. Students buy the cards so we don't have much to do
with the accounting.

As with all homegrown software. It's still inmature. It doesn't
support multple copies generated by the network. It only supports one
printer.

It is very fast though, I think 3 times as fast as our Lanspool
printserver
