The host file was empty. The only way I could get the server to connect to the clients was to populate it with the new addresses. Something which wasnt needed before readdressing.

This server is in a data centre with other servers that use DNS and WINS and nothing else is having any problems. Reverse names are used in DNS. Using ping and nslookup etc from the server would seem to prove that its able to resolve addresses and host names and full names correctly. I've even...

I have changed the IP addresses of my NT servers. After the change my legato server cannot backup its clients. I have 2 problems. 1st: the server cannot connect to or backup clients unless I put the addresses in the hosts file. I've never had to do this before. WINS and DNS are updated with...

It was the >= setting in the autoexec. Cheers for the advice. Not sure why the other servers did not develop the same issue, but I changed them anyway.

Although daylight savings settings would be the obvious problem i've gone through most of the novell issues and although the symptoms are similar none of the fixes apply to, or fix this problem. DST status is OFF UTC time is shown as correct and the daylight savings settings are correct and...

Daylight savings settings are configured correctly (identical to our other servers) to kick in at the end of the month, so at the moment its off.

Netware server 5.1 The time is incorrect within arcserve (backup agent) and also the wrong time is shown on the console screen as new items appear on screen. It is one hour ahead. This is causing me problems as my backups start an hour early. Its not specific to arcserve as the system console...

I having a problem running batch files from some locations. The desktop and the root of network shares (netware) I've got an archive of many admin batch files that have been used many times in the past. For some reason I cannot run these batch files from all locations on an XP machines All that...

Sounds like a messy manual clean up to me, but i think the options you should of used if you wanted it to work in the way you descibed are: File> preferences> user preferences> Mail and news> Change the 'save sent mail' to either 'prompt for save' or 'dont save'. now sent mail will not save...

In my environment, bookmarks icons for the mail and Personal address book (PAB) and company address book (MAB)appear automatically. This is without any special setup you just need the mailserver and mailfile locations in both the Notes.ini and the location document. I think the naming of the...

I'm assuming that this is R5 Archiving. The option to 'archive now' archives mail acording to your archive settings. If there is nothing setup then the option will just create an archive database with the folder structure, as you described. You need to go into Actions > Archive > settings...

Which version of notes do you use 5 ? 6 ? When we get new users we setup their notes accounts without any user intervention (notes R5) They are roaming users so they have a notes folder on a share. The only required files are the notes.ini the bookmark, Names.nsf and the user.ID The other...

If the suer can Archive Small docs, but not large ones with attachments It may be the Disc Space Check how much space is available in the area the user Archives to. This would also explain why it just suddenly happened.

you need to remember that using logoff scripts to update your roaming files is that if the PC or session crashes they dont get updated ! We have this problem all the time with WTS users whom never loggoff their sessions correctly so the script does'nt run and their notes files dont get updated...

That makes sense. I think i've been looking at this the wrong way. I assume that in order for the system to create profiles with preset rights you must use group policies (thats what they are there for) If you dont want to bother with the policies, but still wish to have preset rights on the...
