ler
All Adaptec. I've used a 1542, a 1515 and a 2940W all with the same
results. After trying the latest miniport drivers for each, and
calling Cheyenne, they're actually the ones that told me it wouldn't
work. I've yet to hear anyone say that they can do a restore from a
Win95 client using Arcsolo 3.
For what it's worth, I think I've solved the problem by using Cheyenne
Backup v2.0 and using Wolfgang Schrieber's BINDCLOS.EXE and
BINDOPEN.EXE to get the bindery on tape.
Thanks for the reply!

Use OS2 name space:
1) At server console type LOAD OS2
2) Type ADD NAME SPACE OS2 TO <volume name> for all netware volumes you wish
to support LFNs.
3) Insert the command from 1) to STARTUP.NCF
There is a number of patches for Netware that affect LFN support. It would be
wise to apply those patches (if you have them) to Netware before using

At least part of IRQ15's further woes are based in the fact that it's the

Right. Just this week I have installed my first Netware 4.11 server (hurray
:-)) with Arcserve 6.0 (with a patch which I downloaded from the Internet).
I saw the two resources that you are talking about.
Sounds logical to me, but most of the costumers I have to deal with are
rather same companies (5 to 10 users). Such small companies don't want to
invest in multiple servers. One "good" server is expensive enough for them.
I think I will make some testcases of restoring a NDS tree from tape to a new
machine... Just in case, so I know what I can find on my way...
Thanks for the information...

I found that using the novell 32 bit client in win95 works more efficiently.
I found it also works very well with (If ya have to) arcnet cards with no
