For the last time! It is not a BUG! It is the result of fundamental differences
between timing mechanisms.  There is no bug in making a choice to use one
format over another.  There are just limitations to every choice made, and we
are seeing one now.  

And Novell is ABSOLUTELY committed to supporting Macintosh workstations in a 
truly integrated environment.  There are some notable obstacles to overcome and
we are trying to do just that.  So please do not put words in my mouth about
my committment to supporting the Macintosh platforms.  If you must take the
bandwidth of USNET, please let us discuss meaningful subjects rather than 
discussing the worth of a decision that was made quite some time ago...

  I think this is correct.  It is my understanding that without write access
to the desktop files, the OS treats the desktop files the same way it would on
a locked floppy diskette... no directory changes, even window position changes
will be saved.

I don't have any specific knowledge about why this is necessary with
NetWare and VRepair, but from past experience with similar facilities
in various operating systems, there are typically two causes for
damage repair to require multiple passes.  One is that some damage is
masked by other damage.  The first pass fixing the obscuring damage
reveals hidden damage.  The other is that some damage repair can
move damage from one class to another.  For example, deleting a bad
directory entry in one pass might mean that disk blocks hanging from
that directory entry would show up as "lost" blocks in a subsequent
pass.  (Shows what i know about VRepair: i had to fall back on an
example from TOPS-10 because i don't know enough about what kinds of
damage VRepair fixes nor what it calls them.)

Hope this helps.  Someone that has more experience with VRepair might
want to compare my theory with what VRepair actually does to see if
what i've said is relevant.

  In the interest of consistency with existing practice and many other
somewhat related newsgroups (e.g. comp.os.msdos.*), I'd suggest
something much more like this:

rename  comp.sys.novell  to be  comp.os.netware.misc

Any other subgroups that might be needed really belong in comp.os.netware.*
For example, the existing practice is to name groups ~.programmer
rather than ~.programmING, so for such a group one would create:
	comp.os.netware.programmer

RATIONALE:
  There is much experimental evidence that inappropriate cross-posting
of news articles is minimised when all of the related newsgroups exist
at the same level of heirarchy.  So even if no subgroups are created
right away, it is desirable to start the basic group with the ~.misc
label and at the right level of heirarchy from the start.  Renamings
tend not to work well, so whenever it is practical, we should minimise
the number of renamings that might be needed in the future.

ASIDE:
  The comments under "RATIONALE" probably belong in some FAQ on the
newsgroup creation process.  They certainly are not my own ideas,
rather they are widespread amongst net.oldtimers as part of the
collected wisdom of the net.

Hi...
	Does anyone have any experience with SuperServer as opposed to
using a high end PC for a Novell network?  We're considring putting in
a network of approximately 100 machines (50 Macs and 50 PC's) running
Netware for the Macintosh and Novell 3.11.  Would a high end PC (486/50?)
do the job?  All of my experience is with PC's doing the job for 70-100
machines andI've seen them work just fine.  Am I missing something?

What exactly do you gain by spending the extra $$$ on a SuperServer?

The EnqueuedSendsCount pretty much states that your NIC is saturated with

It is trying to keep up with all the ethernet traffic while still handling

Either invest in more of a lan card that has greater capability or look

Hi, I know this is a STUPID question!!

I am trying to load two instances of the SMCPLUSS.LAN lan card driver
One instance is for the NORmal IPX frame and the other is E_II for TCP

Here are the lines

load tcpip
load smcpluss port=300 memory=d0000 int=a frame=ETHERNET_802.3 name=SMCIPX
bind IPX to SMCIPX net=990
load smcpluss port=300 memory=d0000 int=a frame=ETHERNET_II name=SMCTCP
bind IP to SMCTCP addr=129.1.0.3

This all loads fine except that when the SECOND instance is loaded
the server prompts me, asking if I want to load another frame type??

What I am after is:
1. Turn Server on
2. Server BOOTS with NO questions to a : prompt
2a. unless of course there is a problem. :)
3. Users use the system.

thanks in advance.  Happy New Year.

I had this problem at first.  I'm not at work right now but if memory
serves me well (not always the case ;-)) the undocumented _feature_ of
this driver is that you should only specify port, frame and name when
binding two protocols to the same board.

This works for me and no prompts are given (ie: turn on the server and 
away she goes);

load tcpip
load SMCPLUSS.LAN port=280 frame=ethernet_802.3 name=ipxnet
load SMCPLUSS.LAN port=280 frame=ethernet_ii name=tcpnet
bind IPX to ipxnet net=1
bind IP to tcpnet addr=192.75.12.139

I found their tech folks to be helpful as well.

Hope this assists;

I guess one reason why I didn't recommend ts or grep is the approach
they take to searching -- simply a "brute force" linear search.  In
large textbases, this can unduly burden a server.  A far better approach
is to build inverted indexes of all words (eliminating common words like
"a", "the", "and" etc) and use the indexes only to search.

I would be very interested in understanding how this is done.  I roamed
through Compu$erve last night trying to track down the system calls for this,
but came up with nothing.

I did track down a PD chunk of software that obtains the serial numbers by
presenting itself to the network as a file server.  Whenever a new FS shows up
on the net, the serial numbers are exchanged between all FSs.  Kind of a
unique way to check on it...

Subject: Remote modem access to Novell
Summary: Modem pool for connectivity

Organization: Computer Science Department, University of Pretoria
Keywords: NACS, NAS, modem connectivity

Currently we are investigating the provision of async access for students
at our university to a number of Novell File Servers.  We have looked at the
Novell NACS package.

Does anyone currently make use of NACS to provide async access to users.  We
would like to know how it is used.  We would like to use it as follows:
We would like the student at home to be able to connect to a specific file
server using IPX over the async line provided by a modem connection.

The NACS would "multiplex" all the IPX packets received from the modem pool
onto the Ethernet connection.

We would like to know whether this is possible.  If not, what other options
do we have.
