assistant: happened to me too, is your modem by chance on port 3 or 4?
the default driver only see's com1 and com2,
So, how did I get around this you might ask?
Easy, I used aiocomx.nlm with a custom init string.
It MUST load BEFORE any NwConnect modules load.
I forget the exact syntax I used, something like,
load aiocomx port=com4 speed=57600 fifo=on, etc.
then load your nwconnect modules, then in nwccon bind your protocals
your useing to that modem. repeat for more modems, If your useing a
multiport card, your procedure will be slightly different.
I'm useing NwConnect 2.0.28 and this works fine for me.
Patch level current is 2.0.30, I think.
for exact aiocomx syntax call up it's help file like this,
load aiocomx ? or /? or -?, I forgot it's been so long.
Have Fun,

Write your reply.

assistant: Yes, your license is for only 1 machine at a time, when two machines
meet on a network, they check serial numbers against each other.
If they are the same, all hell breaks loose, it constantly sends a error
to all server console on the network, and all admin accounts on the
network that it can find, Oh, and the wont connect untill the serial
numbers are different.
Now, you can stack your license on a 4.1X server, (I have a 5 and a 50).
If I want to put up another server, I must eaither, buy a other license
or what I do in a pinch, is delete a stacked license from my main
server, like a 5 user, and install it on the other server.
But, You need a different serial number for each server!

Could you expand on this a bit?  What's an Eicon card ? What does it do?

Write your reply.

assistant: That's the answer I was looking for.  However, when you buy a
NetWare package, can you specify the number of licenses you'll need?
Eg. If I have a network which would be using 10 servers, could I buy
a 10 license disk NetWare package or do you buy licenses separately?
It's also my understanding that each license can have any number of
allowed connections, correct?  So using the above example, if I
needed 10 connections per server, I would need 10 license disks each
of which supported 10 connections?

server comes up fine. I attached a crossover cable directly
to the NIC and to a workstation. I was able to log in
successfully as Supervisor and set up the rest of the server
as far as directories and such were concerned.
However, when I attached the server to the backbone of our
network (some 44 other servers) I was unable to attach to
the server. If I did an SLIST, I was to see the server and
the its Network address was not duplicated by any other
server. When I went to attach to the server I was greeted
withan error message which said "Unable to locate server".
Any clues as to where to look as we have checked everything
we could think of?
