My problem is that i have ne2100 and it's driver diskette "lan_drv_.111", 
but my shgen or wsgen will not recognize it so I can't get "dedicated ipx".
But for our NAS i should have one. What shall I try? Do I have wrong 
diskette or what :-)

  Greetings all,

  A few weeks back, mention was made of a program that allowed a Supervisor
to set the owner attribute of large numbers of unowned files on a Netware
server.

  Can some kind soul please point me in the direction of this program? I
believe it was available on an FTP site somewhere.

  cheers all

From: Bob.Clegg@bbs.actrix.gen.nz
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 1992 22:18:14 GMT
Organization: Actrix Information Exchange
Summary: Novell Diagnostic help needed.: 

We have recently installed a link to our MIS computer via a NACS. The NACS is
on the same backbone as the corporate file server. (Novell 3.11) The
installation was adequate in that while there are initial access delays once
the connection was made the interrogation of the MIS machine proceeded OK.
We then introduced a number of remote users to the network using NAS software
running on a machine that is also directly on the backbone.
At this point things fell apart. The remote users have difficulty getting
through the NAS and also having reached the NACS have trouble getting through
that as well. Error codes of FA and F9 are reported even though there are idle
connections. We get intermittant lockups of the NAS and the NACS. The NACS
diagnostic tests run perfectly even in the middle of a "lockup".
Local Novell help has been less than forthcoming.
Has anybody got ANY advice on basic diagnostic techniques or tools we could
employ to try and sort this out? We are technical users but do not have
specialised Novell diagnostic knowledge.
Things are getting pretty desperate here with disillusioned remote users
demanding there old direct connections back and to hell with the Novell
network.
Come on Team, lets have some help on this one.
Thanks in advance.
Either post or Email me. I'll summarise at the end if there is sufficient
interest.

Try increasing your IPX stacks.  Add the following line to your
NET.CFG (or SHELL.CFG).

GET LOCAL TARGET STACKS = 5

Each stack increases memory usage by 384 bytes.  The default value
is 1 (range 1 - 10).

There's a very ropey telnetd somewhere that lets you try to do

Howdee Dirk,
What is the deal when things like DSPACE and SYSCON tell me that a user is  
using 105 Mbytes space on the disc, yet CHKDIR for that user tells me that  
he is using only 17 Mbytes. There is a big difference in the two figures: I  
almost through the person off the network! I would like to get Netware to  
print me a report about my citizens on the disc: just a simple listing of  
the users and their space use. How might I do that?
Also, FILER tells me that 315 Mbytes are being used by deleted files, and  
that 315 Mbytes are available from deleted files. FILER says that 638  
Mbytes are used, leaving 332 Mbytes available. My backup utility tells me  
every day that I have about 480 Mbytes backed up to tape, not 638. Where  
are the 158 Mbytes (638 - 480), and are the Mbytes occupied by deleted  
files, or is this statement artifactual?
Thanks for your attention, and have a happy day...

Some Dell Systems, & ZEOS' New Local Bus Motherboard use 36 bit SIMMS.
This would explain why you have SIMMS that are "not standard". You 
need to specy the SIMM type when you order by matching them with 
the SIMMS that are in your system. There are 40, 50, 60, 70 and

This is not true.  Backspace returns a Ctrl-H, or ASCII 08, while the left
arrow returns the following ascii stream: 27 91 68.

Go to the the keyboard setup screen to ensure this is what you are sending.

You are right if "entry level" means that you won't be able to design
Windows applications.
If you want to program under DOS only, Turbo C++ 3.0 for DOS, is far better
than an entry level compiler. It is an excellent DOS compiler.

But, the 3.0 version comes with only one manual, and explain only C++ 
programming. There is no Standard Library reference manual. It sounds like
Borland wants to withdraw from the pure C world. Older products used to be
more carefully designed, the packages had a complete set of books.

My problem might be different.I have 4 1MBx9 70ns 3 chip style,or 1x3 SIMMs

system. He told me that the 70ns does not work with the 80ns SIMMs!

I really suspect what he said, as I read many articles here that SIMMs
at different speed work well, though the computer will work at the slower
SIMMs' speed.

Does anyone experience this? Or better yet, anyone like to swap his 3 chip
70ns SIMMs with my 9 chip 80ns SIMMs, if you could not make 3 chip simms
work properly on your older PC?

Borland C++ include a stand-alone debugger, asembler, profiler and

that it can't get the ip number.  I think I have found a cause for this...
it's because the slfp program is still looking at the data using 8 bits,
no parity, and 1 stop bit instead of the 7,E,1 setting that all Merit numbers
use.  Since I have no idea how to code in C, can someone explain to me how
to modify this?  My current setup is:

Just add the new PFS:Write, according to a mailing I got from
TigerSoftware offering it with a bunch of extras for $49.95.  All it
supposedly requires is 640K of RAM and a hard disk, on a PC, XT, AT or
compatible.  No Windows required.

According to further info I got on the phone, it won't do WYSIWYG on
Hercules monochrome, but it will do it on CGA or better.

Or, if you're like MOST people who use Stacker and have experienced
NO problems whatsoever in its use (like myself, over a year), then
it's a great program. Like ALL compression utilities, I would surely
make periodic hard drive backups. Actually, REGARDLESS of whether you
used a compression utility or not, the NORM is regular back-ups -- it
should not be the exception.

Stacker has worked flawlessly for me since installation and I have noticed
no speed decrease (or increase) on my 386/25mhz machine. It added
roughly 33-45% extra space onto my hard drive. If you start out with
nothing (or barely nothing), you're likely to get even higher compression
ratios. I highly recommend this utility.

You might try one of Compaq's new ProLinea's, or even a Dell.

You'll be able to get support for both of these machines.
