I am installing Mail v3.0 and Schedule+ across 170 PC's and 10 Netware 3.11 
file servers.  We have gateways tied into both SMTP and Microsoft's Mac 
Mail/Schedule.

My two cents: *Great* product, Good support and bright future.

I ran across a couple of old messages that may apply to the recent
question about logging out an idle connection...

"There are a couple of shareware beasties called 'wogout' and 'logout'
for windows/dos ....They might be available on uunet or simtel20.  I
know they're on compu$erve in novlib."  (From Bob Lombard)

"There is a shareware product called 'idleboot' .... you can find it
on wuarchive.wustl.edu in the mirrors/msdos/lan directory."  (From
Tony Sheehan)

BTW I have personally tried the NLICLEAR.NLM from the updates disks
from Novell and it seems to work.  One frustration is that if a user re-boots
their computer and doesn't log in during the specified idle period they
lose their network connection and get a network error message.

Two ways come to mind:

1) Open up the case and look at the drive and/or adapter.  You can
tell by the type of cable connecting the drive, or by the make
and model of the drive.

2) Run a program like IDEID from DOS.

  Just purchase NetWare for Macintosh and install it.  I
assume since you said a "Novell 486 server" that you your server is up
and operating? Connecting the IBMs would already have been done since
that is the basic configuration of supporting DOS machines.
  You will need some network interface cards for the Macs or use a
DL2000 card in the server and connect the Macs via LocalTalk.  The
DL2000 LocalTalk will work but won't give you the performance like
ethernet will.  If file sizes are less than about 200K, this will
suffice.  When you are handling larger files, the users get a little
antsy waiting and you should go with something like ethernet.
  If you are sharing a Postscript printer and want Novell to handle the
print queue chores, then get the DL2000 to service the PS printer if you
don't have some gateway from your MS-DOS topology to LocalTalk.

Oh, hell....

I used to think that Unix would be a success, in spite of anything
AT&T could do. I hate being wrong like this.

Order your SysVr4 quick, before SysVr5 comes out, without grep, find,
cut, xargs, tcp/ip, du, mountable file systems, fsck and all those
other cryptic and useless functions, for the "reasonable" price of
$20,000 or so.

Anybody volunteering to handle the renaming of comp.unix.* to
comp.os.novell.unix.*?

Guess I'd better get a book on Windows NT, and use my library for
fireplace fodder. Gates must have one huge grin on his face now.

:-(  just isn't adequate.

Hi!

I'm a 'Network-assistant' at our school, that means that I'm in charge off 
all the machines in the net.  We are running NW 3.11 and 386's...


My problem is that before I came, my boss put 80 mb HD's, in all our 
machines. The PC's are supposed to boot from those disks.
The problem is that the students found that the local disks was a great 
place to storing games (and other things too..) on.
When the games require more games than they get with the net-drivers loaded, 
the simply change the autoexec.bat and config.sys files, but don't care 
change it back afterwards....
I'm using aproximatly 1,5 hours a day fixing the mess, and thats not what I 
find particulary funny...

We are also running Windows, a combinaton between running from disk, and 
swapping to disk.

What I was looking for a way to protect the local disks......
Parhaps a kind of password-program, that can't be bypassed???

What are YOU doing?????

Thanks in advacne!

Also don't forget that Extended Systems has an equivalent ARCNET

You haven't really provided enough information here; what version of
NetWare/Mac are you using? How are you servicing the queue - is the
printer on the Appletalk net somewhere, or is it an RPRINTER with ATPS
only dumping the job into the queue?

If you want to send me these details, as well as your ATPS.CFG off-
line, I'll be glad to help if I can.

Hi, Novellers

        Is there any source of information that, for a 3.11 server,
        describes interpretations of numbers displayed by MONITOR?
        Specifically, the UnsupportedFramePacketCount for one of
        our servers runs at about 15% of all packet volume.

        What does this item signify?

In any event, you should be able use one or the other, just not both at the

I think you will find that there are architectural limitations in
the DOS API that preclude the existance of an X flag, having nothing to
do with NetWare.  How is DOS to know whether you are reading or
executing a file?  For those programs whose overlays are
contained in the executable, and do their own overlay management,
how is DOS going to know if an overlay is being read to memory,
or read to memory and then written to another medium?  I imagine
the DOS COPY command and all other commands implementing such
functionality could artificially observe an X flag convention,
but anyone could issue a few DOS interrupts and copy the file anyway.

Subject:      Two servers, two ABENDS!

Date sent:  3-JAN-1993 16:53:07

Well, I have two different file servers giving me abends.
Let me introduce them to our audience:

Server number one is a 486-33, has 32 MB of RAM,
and has his own two drives (1.2 GB each).
He is a primary server, in that everyone
logs into him for normal everyday sort of
applications. He is into NFS and would
like to get involved with Netware for Macs.
If you would like to know more about him,
just let me know...

All was fine until recently when he abended with
an error on the lpr module of NFS. Any attempt to
bring him up resulted in the follow error:

Abend: AllocateNonMoveableReturnableMemory discovered invalid memory
       block segment

Server number 2 is configured the same way, except that his hard
drives are 1 650 MB and 2 1.2 GB in size. He is used for database
access. The problem here is the 650 MB hard drive. He has crashed
twice, the last time with the error:

device #0(5F000) deactivated due to drive failure

This is a SCSI drive, and it is the SYS volume.

Upon re-boot, the error:

Redirection block table mismatch detected on Netware Partition
Device #0(5F000).

VREPAIR failed to fix the problem or find any errors. The drive mounts,
and there is 1 block used in the Hot-fix area.


Anyone care to comment?

The GNSFIX patch in 311PTn.ZIP may help the problem.
The documentation follows:

GNSFIX   NLM
2397 02-19-92   1:43p   This patch fixes a problem found when
                        rebooting and attempting to get a
                        connection to the file server.  If all of
                        the connections are in use, (e.g. 20 for
                        the 20-user version, 50 for the 50-user
                        version, etc.), and one of the users
                        reboots, the user will not be able to log
                        back in to the server. This problem will
                        only occur if there is only one network.
                        If the user is on an internet, a
                        re-connection will be possible.

                        The problem is that once a user reboots,
                        his connection is not terminated at the
                        server until a time out limit is reached
                        (usually 15 minutes).

                        This patch corrects the problem by
                        checking the source node address of the
                        incoming packet to the node address of
                        all workstations the server currently
                        thinks it is attached to.   If a match is
                        found the server responds to the
                        workstation, thus re-creating a
                        connection in the same slot the
                        workstation had prior to its reboot.

	I've got version 2.0 of the Multiprotocol Router software.  In 
version 1.0 there was a NLM called LIPX.NLM which is not located in 
version 2.0 of the software kit.   The LIPX.NLM would allow for a larger 
than 512 byte packet size to be negotiated between the server and the 
workstation even if a router was in between them.  Has this been omitted 
from the version 2.0 software?  Has it been renamed to something else?  I 
can't seem to find anything in the manuals or on the diskettes about this 
interesting NLM.   Any help would be appreciated, even Novell aftermarket 
support phone numbers would be help.

I've been having problems with PServer working properly with my HP LJ3si and 
today in the mail an ad for the netsprint and jetsprint print server devices 
arrived. If you have used them on your network, what do you think of them? 
Are they any faster at printing than PServer? Do they have bugs or oddities 
in the way they print stuff? And I'd also like to know if they would work 
with a plotter, rather than a printer. Would they work on a HP pen plotter?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give,
Loren Miller
