And just to add a footnote to Don's reply, you should also check out the
parallel port situation in your server. LPT1: normally sits on INT 7 so even 
after you have fixed your routing situation this may give you grief. 
Interrup 5 is usually a better choice, unless you happen to have a
non-SCSI tape drive.

As an aside, a very nice PC hardware checker outer was recently posted to 
comp.binaries.ibm.pc. It will tell you about your parallel port 
situation among countless other things. I glued it together, gave it the 
serious virus scanning treatment and slung it onto sjf-lwp.novell.com in 
the "share_w" directory if anyone is interested. It's in "ifp1p155.zoo".

This is such a common problem that i thought i'd broadcast the
response instead of sending mail as you requested.

Since your configuration looks correct, the problem is almost certainly
that you have failed to configure your LAN WorkPlace nodes to tell them
about the router.  Add the line "ip_router 141.241.12.2" to the
"Protocol TCPIP" section of your net.cfg file.  That tells the LAN
WorkPlace nodes what router on their own network they should use as the
first hop in any route.

This is an extremely common mistake, probably the most common "problem"
with configuring NetWare 3.11 TCP/IP as a router, although it's not
always with LAN WorkPlace end nodes.  I'd say over half of the problems
i've heard about setting up a 3.11 IP router turns out to be that
*other* nodes involved weren't told about the new router.  If the other
nodes speak RIP, everything works automatically, but many end nodes
don't talk RIP.  Those nodes have to be manually reconfigured to
understand the change in the routing topology.

As i just recently pointed out, if the packets never *get* to the
router, it doesn't much matter how well the router itself is configured.
What alway seems confusing is that sending traffic to the local
interface works.  That's because that's a local transmission that
doesn't require a router.  It's only when the traffic is directed to a
remote network (e.g., the other interface), the end node needs a router.
If it doesn't know the correct router to use, it's out of luck, even
though you've just demonstrated that it physically can get packets to
that node.

Errm. We just put out release 1.1. I imagine you tested 1.0. The 1.1 stuff 
is what is bundled into the LAN packs for which the single copy price is now 
79 bucks. Although I've never used NetWare Lite v1.0 or v1.1, my experience 
has been that, on the whole, software just keeps on improving......

BTW, I'm at the office now so I have my price list handy. The price of 10 
PCs worth of shiny new operating systems with NetWare Lite peer to peer 
networking capabilities (whatever you happen to think of them) plus full
TCP/IP connectivity into the UNIX world would be $2,790 list. I genuinely 
don't think that is at all bad myself. Actually, you do have to add a little 
bit on for LAN WorkPlace NFS, errr, $1,395 for a 10 pack of that.

And will sir be wanting fries with his TCP/IP stack?

Summary: Installing new hard drive -- approach to re-partitioning?
Keywords: Re-partitioning Volumes
Date: 12 Aug 92 16:10:09 GMT
Distribution: usa
Organization: California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo

Currnently our Model 80 Server is running Novell 3.11.  We have a 300mb SCSI Hard drive that's partitioned as the following:

		SYS:  30Mb
		SYS2: 270Mb

Volume SYS: is in need of addtional space, because I've noticed "Volume SYS: almost out of disk space" errors when our mac users our printing intense graphics files.

Volume SYS2: is in desperate need of disk space because of the many applications we keep adding and as the number of user increase. 

Currently SYS: and SYS2 have about 5Mb left (risky).  We have ordered a 400Mb
SCSI Hard drive.   

I was wondering how I'm going to approach the partitioning process.  Here is my thinking:  SYS2 is currently 270Mb.  If I installed a 400Mb and made this drive to be volume SYS2: that would leave me with 130Mb of disk space.

Volume SYS: would have 300Mb of disk space, which is much more than is needed.  I was wondering if I could partition part of the original drive to include both SYS: and a part of SYS2: and have the new drive labeled as SYS2 also.

Example:		SYS: 100Mb
			SYS2: 200Mb (original drive)
			SYS2: 400Mb (new drive)
Is this crazy? Should I just create a new volume name (SYS2)?  That would meand that I'd have to change some of the mappings.

Date: 13 Aug 92 01:55:02 GMT
Organization: Forest Science Department, Oregon State University

We have a research site with a small Novell network (15 workstations) 
located about 90 miles from our university.  We are looking for an 
inexpensive way to link this network with the one here at OSU.  We 
would like to be able to accomplish unattended mail transfers as well 
as be able to attach the remote server for administation purposes.  It  
would be nice to be able to route TCP/IP so we could use the connection 
for Xterminal session but at this point we will settle just being able to 
use IPX.

In addition to cost (we really have no budget), we are constrained to use 
regular dialup phone lines for which US West will expect to collect long 
distance phone charges so whatever type of connection we make will need 
to be intermittent in nature.  

i have looked at Novell's old 2.15c bridge software which appears to be
able to run 19.2kb asynchronously on dedicated external machines.  Since 
i have heard rumors that this value is inflated, i would be very interested 
in knowing if anyone has succeeded in running it with a 9.6 or 14.4 V.32bis 
modem. In addition i saw little to suggest that these bridges could 
operate effectively in an intermittant fashion.  The LCONSOLE command 
appears to make it possible to connect and disconnect in a clumsy fashion, 
but there does not appear to be any command line equivalent that would 
permit unattended timed operation, etc.  If anyone has been able to get such 
a system to work i would be very interested.  

If anyone has seen or had experiance with any other software/hardware 
combinations (pc/route or pc/bridge perhaps) which might meet our needs 
i would be very happy to hear from you.  Please send email to:

klopsch@fsl.orst.edu

If i'm luck enough to get some workable suggestions i'll sumarize the 
results.

Try the Fresh Utilities, from Fresh Technology (602-497-4200 for the

SLIST is reporting the file services IPX internetwork address.  Since,
in 3.x, file services are located on an internal virtual network
within the 3.x server, the address reported by SLIST is always an
address on that network.  Specifically, file services are always at
node address zero on the internetal network.

In other words, what SLIST is telling you isn't what you think it's
telling you.  Feel free to consider this a deficiency, but i don't
think you can really call it a bug.  In NetWare 2.x, i believe that
multi-homed file servers report only one of the interfaces, so you can
get the wrong node address from them, too.  It's only on a 2.x server
with a single connection that the node address is reliably the MAC
address of the server on that network.

I'm not sure i understand why the MAC address is so important to you,
anyway.  Just walk up to the 3.x server, type "config", and write
down the MAC addresses so you have them the next time you need them.
If you need them....

SETPASS will do what you want.  Of course, the supervisor must have
