try running server with a -ns or -na

respectively they boott the server without using either the startup and
autoexec __or__ boot up the server without just the autoexec

Dear Dave:
          In a token ring network, all nodes are connected in a circle
          (ring) with transmitter A connected to receiver B, txB
          connected to rx N, etc., tx N connected back to rx A.

          When a station in the ring no longer hears anything from an
          upstream neighbor, ie when node F no longer hears node E, it
          will enter a beacon state.  It will send an outbound frame
          every 20 milliseconds, identifying itself and its missing
          upstream neighbor.  This will help you identify where the
          break in the ring is.  In this example, the break is either
          the transmitter of node E, the receiver of node F, or the
          path between (cable or MAU).

          Most token ring management and monitoring products can
          display the beacon frame contents, which will point you in
          the right direction.  This is a very useful but seldom
          utilized feature in token ring.  Hope that this helps!

Subject: unix/novell question

Hi Novelland,

    Please forgive me if this is a duplicate posting. I may have
screwed up my addressing the first time around.

    I have a question about Novell/Unix connectivity that I would
appreciate responses to.

    At the present time, my client is running a package called Caucus
on an SCO unix machine. Caucus is an data conferencing tool which also
can serve as e-mail. For now, Caucus is just used by people dialing
into the unix system.

    In a couple months, we will be putting in a Novell 3.11 network.
It is desired to use Caucus as the LAN e-mail system.  Initially, I had
planned to convert over to the Novell version of Caucus and allow
outsiders to access it thru our ACS.

    I discussed this with the Caucus sales rep and she said that the LAN
version does not work well with dialing in because of "file locking
problems" (no details given). She suggested connecting the unix box to
the network, and accessing mail that way. Howerever, she had no
suggestions of how to do this.

    I pose these questions to the list:

       1. How would I do this?
       2. What would be the cost?
       3. Will response time lag while accessing mail in this manner?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

>What causes Beaconing,
Broken adapter, connector, cable or MAU. Mostly short circuited connector.

>How does one diagnos which card is sending the beacon around the Ring.
While the ring is still beaconing, I first isolate groups of MAU's from the
ring one by one until the beaconing stops. Then, having found the group, I
reconnect the group and I start to isolate the individual MAU's within the
group. When I find the MAU I pull out the connectors one by one until I
find the cable/connector/adapter that causes the beaconing. During this
process you must have contact with someone who watches when the ring is
beaconing and when it is not. For this we use a walkie-talkie.
You can detect when the ring is beaconing with the following means:
1. Messages on the file server console. These are not always accurate.
   Sometimes a the server misses a 'Ring Corrected' message. (3.11).
2. Try to load a Novell token-ring driver. When the driver cannot insert
   into the ring, the ring is still beaconing. When the ring is corrected,
   the PC is inserted into the ring, and you must remove the driver for the
   next try.
3. Use the Madge Ring Manager II product. This program displays all ring
   events and error conditions. IBM has a similar product, called LAN Manager
   (not to be confused with the Microsoft LAN Manager).

>how can I prevent/eliminate this problem and not have the Network come
 tumbling down???
Often a permanently beaconing ring is preceded by some very short periods of
beaconing. When you have the Madge Ring Manager II, or similar, you can see
what happened in the ring just before it started beaconing. When a certain
PC joined or left the ring immediatly before the beaconing started, it most
certainly is the offender.

  I have a question that I thought somebody in net land can help with.
  We are running 3.11 and we have some workstations running DOS 5.0 with
  Windows 3.0.. is there any way to make "all concern" happy?

  Windows chokes, snorts and yelps at the sight of NETX being loaded.
  Anybody else have this problem or am I on an island?

Yes. You have to load the NLMs REMOTE and RSPX. REMOTE should be given a

You don't give enough Information here. But two hints:

- Have the queue served with a high Priority.
- Don't use RPRINTER on very slow (e.g. XT) machines.

If your goal is to disable GUEST but not lose the ability to print, you
could try leaving the guest accounts in place, but giving them a login
script which contains the single line #LOGOUT

Printing would still be possible, but LOGIN GUEST would not let the user
in. I have done this in the past as a temporary measure to overcome a
different problem.

What is required to integrate os/2 workstations on a novell lan?

Specifically, it will be on a 3.11 with IBM workstations.
Do you need to add name space to the server?  Do you need to relink
your ipx with a special driver?  How difficult is this to do and is
it worth what you get?  Can you only use 386 or higher stations or
can you get a limited use on 286 and lower (obviously no multitasking).

This is an IP question, rather than a Novell question, but since most sites

seem to have both running, someone may be ablle to help.

We have the usual mix of PCs on a Novell network, plus some Unix boxes - in
particular Suns.  We wish to use BOOTP to allocate internet numbers, as
seems
quite common. So ...

1)  We can't seem to find BOOTP on our Suns.  Is it a standard Unix issue
    piece of software, or is it disguised?  A daemon called BOOTPARAMD
seems
    to do the same job for diskless Sun clients, but doesn't suggest that
    it can do the job for other machines, is this BOOTP and if so how do
    we configure it.

2)  Will BOOTP or RARP packets transmit through a NOVELL server with
    the TCP/IP routing software loaded?

Thanks in advance.

It is my understanding that if there is no personnal OR SYSTEM script, then
login will use its own.  This following script I found in my copy of LOGIN:

> MAP DISPLAY OFF
> MAP ERRORS OFF

This is almost true.  Because NOVELL requires the login script be located in
the mail directory, the hole exists.  If they had used another location, then
there would be no hole.  Therefore it is not a systematic hole, but an os
hole.

I would suspect that the pc is running too fast for the 8 bit cards.
See if the errors persist after selecting a slower cpu speed.

While on the subject..  does anyone know of an affordable, *small* and
*light* ethernet adapter for the Macintosh PowerBooks, in specifically the
Mac PowerBook 170.

It most definitity support AppleTalk, and would love to have support for
TCP/IP, DecNET, and LAT!

Any suggestions?

BYU's PDSHELL files haven't been updated since they were first
released.  This is mostly because later releases were sold to Atlantix
(formerly Coconet).  The Intel PDIPX is based on a newer version of
the driver development kit.  The author also listens to bug reports
(although of course doesn't necessarily act on them, being free software).

The Intel PDIPX isn't a drop-in replacement for the BYU IPX.  Read the docs.
