just put the ppro 200 in the server and it made the best one so far, .. i

assistant: Hi y'all!!!  I have a quick and somewhat insignificant question about
the Netware server at work.  It seems that the time on the server is about
an hour and a half ahead and everytime someone logs on, the server
automatically adjusts the time on the workstation.  It's becoming very
annoying and I was hoping someone could tell me how to adjust the time
from the system console, or maybe from a workstation.
I hope that someone out there can help me out.  It's becoming a frustrating
little problem.

Write your reply.

assistant: understand, at least from the descriptions.
Yeah, we kind of got sidetracked.  Let me start over.
Case 1:  Never manually run PURGE.  After about 2 weeks, MACOLA, a DOS
btrieve app, begins to "lose transactions."  I can't describe the exact
symptom, but it is a big problem for the customer...they have to go back and
find what entries "took" and which didn't, and correct it all...a really big
mess occurs.
Case 2:  Run PURGE /ALL every few days.  The above symptom never
happens.
LOTS of free disk space on the MACOLA volume (in fact, on all
volumes).
A CNE  advised either a. add server memory, or b. continue the PURGE process,
because the deleted files list was in memory, and as the list grew, some
other process was running short of memory.

The problem only shows up on two out of the 11 WIN95 computers that we have
on our net.  When I boot the machines, the Netware logon screen comes up
and then I login.  But after running the server login script, the computers
just set there.  NO Icons, NO Taskbar, No anything.
But if I select cancel during logon, the Icons and Taskbar shows up, and I
can then pick the Netware Login from the program bar, login and everything
works perfectly. Sofar, I have done an uninstall, using the software from
Novell and then done a reinstall, but no help. I am thinking the problem
maybe in the Registery, but don't have a clue on were to look.  I have
been searching the Novell Web Pages, but sofar no help.
Anyone have any suggestions, other than FORMAT C: ?

something very similar.
I also know that you can connect 2 machines via serial/parallel ports,
but I would rather use the cards so I can use the ports for
printers/mice/modems.
Thanks for your help.

Write your reply.

assistant: You can't program based on belief ;->
In the queue system every form has a number, you can define a table in which
you correspond the formnum,ber with a formname. BOTH are kept in the
queue-job.
My problem is that using capture or nprint, the formnumber is always changed
back to zero instead of the number that was given. This causes the despooling
to the printer to not use the correct formnumber.
