I've only got the 30 day model, but I'm very impressed with it.  I have to defer
the virus checking reliability to NCSA.  A pamphlet is included in the demo
that inculdes the NCSA report.  The actual operation is pretty slick though.
I've been running it in real time for a week now and have seen no bad effects
from it.  I also ran the manual server disk scan at the same time (2GB) during
the day and saw no bad effects.  What I really liked was the reporting features,
they left no room for questioning exactly who, from what machine, when, file,
and what virus passed by.  It also includes a TSR and workstation manual
scanner. I only have two viruses in captivity and it easily saw them.  I just
downloaded McAffee's netshield yesterday and will post next week how that works.

Duane,
	You might want to take a look at the products from Citrix. It is a
multiuser version of OS/2 2.0 that runs as an "application server" for
Netware connected clients. Contact Dave Manks at 1-800-437-7503. We are
currently evaluating the product. So far it looks pretty good.

Subject:      NDIS Drivers - Info

I sent a message to this list last friday about NDIS.  I have received 0
replies.  Do I take it that there is no one out there that has any information
on Ndis.

My Question is -

I am running a Tandem CLX 740 n dcommunication to it via MLAD and Tellnet.
We want to move to a 6530 emulator and communicate directlyo the
Tandem over ethernet.  The software package is PCT(Another Tandem Product)
PCT needs NDIS drivers to work.  Also, I am in the process of purchasing
Pathworks from DEC and it also uses NDIS drivers.  DEC is also in
development of Pathworks for IPX and what I can find out at this time is
that the new product uses NDIS.

I need any information that I can get my hands on about NDIS.  Any
information would be helpful.

Thanks!

Dear fellow members of the BANYAN VINES listserv, please be careful not
to use the programme XDEL.EXE because it won't work, when I used it all
it did was erase all of my files.

Hi all!
	As a matter of interest, how many people out there are running NetWare
with more than, say 2500 users, with and without Name service? Admittedly we
are running a NetFrame NF300. Even so, our number of bindery-registered users
is just about to top 5500.

	I am just curious to see how large people are going with this?

Thanks in advance for postings.

One problem I found with ONTIME was that once you've set an alarm, you
can't disable it. Not even by deleteing the event you set it for!  Also,
modifying an event that you've alarmed causes the alarm to go off
twice.....

HELP Help.

We are experansing a strange problem with printers???. the problems are as
follows:

  1. If we print 3 og more jobs from the same pc in a row there are lines who
   disapears in the printout on the 3 and 5 page sometimes on the 4 and 6 page.

  2. the same problem are there if several computers print out (3 or more) to
     the same queue se that 3 or more queue are in waiting at the same time.

The configuration are as follows:

Novell 3.11, Pserver 1.22, Xyplex 1450 Printerserver ( a 4 ports box like
lanport but can do LAT,TCP/IP and IPX/SPX at the same time on the same printer)

The printer are a Canon lbp8IIIt and its running on pararell.

We have exchanged the xyplex server and the printercable.


Regards and thanks in advance.

Subject:      Re: Execute only does not work for me
              4, 92 4:58 pm

Does anyone out there know how Execute Only is implemented (I know Novell
does ... maybe I should re-phrase the question to does anyone know who is
willing to tell us...)

From ther servers point of view, when an Execute Only file is run, the server
receives some NCP request from the PC, and then sends the entire contents
to the PC (over simplified - there would probably be multiple NCP frames),
but the point is the server can not know the workstations intended use of
the file (i.e. whether the workstation intends to execute the file or
copy the file) unless the workstation tells it.  So, it would appear to me
that the X attribute would be implemented in one of the following two ways:

(1) The NCP request to open a file for read includes a flag to tell the
server whether the files is being opened to execute it or not, OR

(2) When the shell (NETx) intercepts a read request to a network drive, it
determines if the access is for the purpose of executing the file (which it
can do since it is running on the PC - the server cannot do this since it has
no control over the PC, other than any control that NETx would give
it) and if it is not for executing, then NETx asks the server if the
file is execute only, and if it is, it denys the request.

Note that in either of these scenarios, NETx is responsible for preventing
an X file from being copied.  It would then seem that all that is needed
is a modified NETx - if (1) is the case, then the modified NETx would
ALWAYS tell the server that the file is being opened for execute,
regardless of whether or not it really is, and if (2) is the case, the
modified NETx would skip the part about asking the server if the
X attribute is set.

This would then allow files to be copied, which would essentially allow the
X bit to be cleared (you could just copy the file and since the DOS
copy command does not copy netware attributes, the copy would not have the
X attribute set).

Another possibility is netware for MacIntosh.  Does notware for MacIntosh
allow copying of X files (or are they not even accisbale to the Mac? I
don't believe AFP includes a flag for the intended use of the file, so
it would be virtually impossible to implement X on a Mac - they would
have to allow executing and copying of the file or doing nothing).  Also
note that the CI bit is checked by the Finder - many 3rd party copy programs
will glady copy files (on the Mac) with the CI bit set).

Subject: NE2000 with Netware Requester for OS/2
Organization: University of Virginia
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 1992 16:24:13 GMT

Has anyone else had trouble out there with this combo?  I can
install and run teh requester fine, to a point.  For some
reason, however, after a short period of time my server
connections time out, and a dialog box appears that says "Time
out waiting for response from server..."  This happens to any
and all server connections I have. I also have a 3c503 card in
the machine that I use to run TCPIP (ver 1.2.1 from IBM).  I
have tried almost everything imaginable:

I upped the abort timeout setting in the net.cfg to the max
(same goes for listen timeout, etc)

I have swapped cards for a brand new NE2000

I have tried logging on to teh servers at the command line
rater than using NWTOOLS.

I changed my requester over to the 3c503 card -- it worked
FINE, but I don't want to use an 8 bit card.

So, I guess my questions are:

Has anyone else experienced/solved this type of problem?

Does anyone at novell have any ideas?

My configuration is:
486 Clone (WIN) with 16 meg of ram
NE2000 Int.5
3c503 Int. 3
Ethernet running Frame type ethernet_II
The file servers I connect to are both running Netware 3.11.
I am on teh same subnet as the servers
There is NOT that much network traffic
I have NO PROBLEMS under DOS
As I said before, the 3c503 worked fine.

Please send me mail, as I don't always have tome to read the
net.

BTW, does anyone know if an NDIS driver exists for an NE2000??

Try putting your login into a compiled BAT file using for example FROMBAT

I did a study on this at NASA. You should up the memory on the diskless clients

half a RAM disk and put your swapfile as temporary in the RAM disk.  This will
give the best Windows performance possible.

MacAffee is NOT on Internet.  They go through a commercial service
for news and mail.  Try SIMTEL, wuarchive.wustl.edu, or the
oakland.risc.ua.edu for MacAffee's stuff.

The only type of access MacAffee supports is through their internal
BBS or CompuServe (MACAFFEE forum).

The only thing I can say about MS Mail is that in a NetBIOS environment
(i e LAN Manager, MS Net, etc) MS Mail is a more secure product. I claim
this because normally both products require write access to a common mail
directory. Bad guys can therefore easily tamper (perhaps not so easily?) or
erase mail files at will.

The MS solution to this is to have the Mail client link to the share
containing the mail files on the server only as long as it is active,
hidden from the user. This, in combination with for example LAN Manager's
capability of "hiding" shares from normal network browsing, provides a very
secure mail environment.

CC:Mail does not support this in its current version (as far as I know).
