Subject:      help! how to capture com port to a castell print queue

I swear that I must be nearly brain dead. I bought a Castelle Lan
Press, and on it there are two COM ports. I configured one of them
to service a print queue for our HP Draft Master (serial plotter).
Then I went to my workstation and tried (1) from the control panel
in Windows, to connect a serial port to a network print queue. (that
is a no can do) So I changed it back to a parallel port and made
the connection to the queue, but never saw anything put into the
queue or appear on the plotter. (2) directly attached the serial
cable to the PC I was working on and verified that the printer
works.

So (1) how do I capture a COM port to a network print queue.
   (2) is there anything special to be done to make a serial
       capture work

Thanks in advance

Tim,
Try selecting remote parallel LPT or Remote Serial COM, add local printers=1 in
 shell.cfg.  I am going by notes I made since my only Rprinter/Pserver setup
is at a remote site which I am not able to access at this time.  I hope this

 I'm looking for some information and/or suggestions:

First, would anyone have info. on a company called Cylink?  I remember
their salesperson calling me about a product called Airlink (I think?).
In typical fashion, I didn't pay enough attention because there was no
need at the time.  Now (of course) I need this information.  This is
what leads to the suggestions part:

Other than this Airlink product, (which so far only exists in some
crevice in the back of my mind) does anyone have any suggestions as to
how I can connect buildings which are from 1/4 of a mile to  2
miles away, to my network?  We would like NOT to run copper of any
kind.  We already have fiber to about 60ish buildings, but none in the
vacinity of these.  I'd just as soon not dig a trench (labor costs,
etc.) if possible.  Any ideas would be most welcome, and appreciated.

Thanks,

You need TCPIP1.NLM or download a new version of BOOTPD.NLM (currently
version 1.05).

Subject:      Novell Monitor Bug?

I'm running Palindrome's The Network Archivist .NLM version as an automated
backup system for my NW386 v3.11.  Since physical security for my server is
sorely lacking (It's in my cube...no doors or locks in sight), I normally
keep the server console locked with the supervisor password in monitor.  This
worked very well until I installed TNA.

If the console is locked when TNA autostarts, it blows monitor away and
leaves my console at the prompt -- monitor has to be unloaded and reloaded
before it can be accessed again.

Palindrome emphatically states that this is a bug in Novell's Monitor.NLM and
isn't their fault/problem.  Is this indeed Novell's bug and is there a patch
or new version of Monitor.NLM that fixes it??

Thanks,

Alan

1.  I-Queue from Infinite Technology 410-363-1097 $149 per server.  You
    can get a 30 day evaluation copy for this.  I am currently trying it.

2.  PS-Print from Brightworks 800-552-9876.  I'm not sure of the price.

  Sure.  Just create func_part_1, func_part_2, func_part_3, etc.  Then a
mode is comprised of func_part_1 + func_part_2 + ... ad infinite (as
long as infinite is less than 256. :-))  Make sure you have a SHELL.CFG of
NET.CFG statement PRINT HEADER = 255 which is maximum.

Probably you restrict the space in volume SYS:.  I already had that problem
because I limit the VOLUME SYS: space to 0 to all users.
I found that Novell spool files to VOLUME SYS:.

I hope this can help you.

        Did you install the OS/2 components on the server? I did and have
had no trouble accessing the NW 3.11 server from either OS/2 or its DOS
box. The server installation creates OS2 subdirectories in SYSTEM, PUBLIC,
and LOGIN (and uses an OS2 login script in each Mail subdirectory), and
puts OS/2 versions of a few utilities in System and Public.
        I discovered that creating a MAP entry at the OS/2 level carries
it over to the DOS level so we can overcome the lack of rational directory
mapping inherent with OS/2 access.

The timezone statement does not contain any information about when
to change timezones, just what zone it currently is in.

I don't think that CLIB.NLM knows when to switch either.

In any case, RDATE.NLM has no idea what timezone its in, and doesn't
care (except when the timezone is 0, an oversight on my part, it
shouldn't care about that either).

Subject:      Re: How to find out Network Interface card's address

Try Sleuth from (I think) Darnius software. This program maps out all
option card Rom Addresses as well as other interesting stuff about
your system. Manifest (MFT) from Quaterdeck (Included with mouse QEmm
software) does the same thing.

When excluding addresses from emm386 you might have to exclude the
shared ram address of the network board as well.

We use SMC (formally WD) network boards and include the following
statement in our config.sys for novell boot disks.
device=c:\network\himem.sys
device=c:\network\emm386.exe 4096 ram x=c800-dfff m9
(the principle is the same for other cards as well)

Emm386 will self adjust its memory requirements and M9 indicates the
page frame that emm will set up for itself. In our case e000 range
for the 64k ems page frame. Our network cards are set to default d000
area for the rom address.

We also use Tridon 8900 SVGA cards and had to jumper these from 16
bit to 8 bit to allow them to be used with the network drivers and
card. (SVGA take up a lot of UMB space.)

Hi Dave,
The QMS series appears to require a special driver and/or printer file to
utilize the more advanced functions {e.g Duplex, Form Change, Bin Selection etc
etc}.  Did you install {or even get} the proper drivers and regenerate the WP5
system to use it?  Also,  you might check back with your rep.  armed with the
status page {menu-->administration--->special page--->print status} to check
the firmware to see if it handles the ESP well;  We had a similar problem and
it was traced back to the firmware.

Also,  you might check with the vendor to see if they have a QMS.PDF for
Netware.  If you are just using the HP Laserjet series PDF it won't cut the
mustard for the advanced stuff.  Let me know how you make out.

Regards

Hi;
Anyone using a QMS PS 2000 printer with a novell network?  We have a new
one (with the optional advanced paper handling setup), and are having
problems getting ESP to work properly, and seem to be unable to select the
top bin from applications such as Word Perfect.
Any ideas?

Thanks;

It IS possible to login without typing a password (while still having
a password).

If attaching from a login script use:
        ATTACH server/username;password

OR you can do it from the login script with
        LOGIN server/username < password.txt

where password.txt is a simple text file that contains your password
(and a few carriage returns characters?). I'm not sure if this is
EXACTLY how to do it, but I've done it many times before and this is
very close.  If it doesn't work, mail me and I'll send you a sample
batch file.

P.S.  It is a very good idea to at least make the password.txt file
hidden, and giving it a less obvious name would be even more helpful.
In fact, hiding the batch file that calls the above line would be
even better for security purposes.

In bit.listserv.novell you write:

What language are you using?  and are you using the netware libs?

A friend and I are/have written a crude ipxbased chat program as the start
of a eveloution cycle ending with lan based real time multiuser games.

However, we wrote our own ipx calls based on the assembly lang. info
found in netware programming books.

Perhaps with some more info I might be able to help, not gauaranteeing it but
i'll give it a shot.
