assistant: Hi, Frank Ramsey!
  And how Novell reacts and what is the solution ? I never see problems
  like this and think, that very serious bugs cause it. Seems to me that
  the best solution is removing and creating NDS from the very first
object. ;(( And is any known statistic about problems like this ?
  What environments most unprotected from this things ?

assistant: Hi All,
My server is a dx400 with 16Mb, running NW3.12 with no patches applied.
Using 802.2 on thinnet with a Genius NE2000 compatible, linked to an
old Olivetti M240 client (8086) running VLM, using an original NE1000.
Printer is a Cannon BJ20 attached to the server. A queue and spool 0 has
been set up, the printer defined and a CAPTURE command issued on the client.
Printing generally works quite well apart from sometimes I have to send
a CR to the printer to kick it into action, ie. ECHO. > PRN
Typically the problem occurs with a screen dump (Print Screen).
Obviously I've something set wrong, but I can't see what, any ideas ?

Write your reply.

assistant: Only advantage of Novell Web Server: quick access to NW files, and
ntegration
with NDS which does not make much sense here.
Big DISadvantage: any non-file service on the WWW site, that is using CGI
(Common Gateway Interface), needs either a NLM or connection to anOTHER
platform (NT, Unix). Database servers, best known example - where are they in
NLM form, except the bad-selling Oracle and Progress NLM versions?
Another minor point is that Novell doesn't integrate a FTP server - it's a
different program, also in IntranetWare.
MS IIS covers all these disadvantages, and benefits from the advantages of NT
as an appserver platform. Sad for Novell...

I would like to know, if it is

Novell claims the it is possible, but I still have

are too expensive.
Does any one know a router called zonix arpegio plus.
Is it still possible to get firmware for it?
