    Slow LAN performance using NW6SP5

    replacing slow drives with fast NW6

    I have NSS volumes. Portlock Storage Manager seems to be a nice product - I downloaded the eval version...tried it and liked it...so I will be getting the license this week. Thanks for the tip.

    replacing slow drives with fast NW6

    I would like to put faster hard drives & controller in my server - I currently have an Adaptec 2100s U160 card and some very old Fuji SCSI hard drives in RAID 1 configuration...I would like to boost disk I/O performance a bit by adding a U320 card and 15000rpm drives. I am using Netware 6 SBE -...

    CAPTURE won' t print more than one copy correctly

    rjs, I tried the timeout parameter and got the same problem...it is a single job. Your other suggestion is exactly what I needed ... I simply put in a line to capture the printer and sent control characters to the printer to tell it to print 2 copies of everything. I then used spool with the...

    CAPTURE won' t print more than one copy correctly

    Background info: Novell 6SP3, clients are using DOS applications in Win98 to print various hardcopy reports. These DOS applications have hardcoded CAPTURE, NPRINT and SPOOL commands in them. Problem (with example): The software (I have the source code) issues the following command...

    netware 6 and netware 3.12 compatibility

    Yes, I am currently running NW6 and NW3.12 servers and able to log into both of them simultaneously from Win98SE workstations using the latest client with either IPX or TCP/IP. You shouldn't have any problems trying to do this.

    NW6 hangs on restart/down

    The Linksys card did not come with the Dell - this is something I swapped out to upgrade from the standard 3COM 10/100Mbit to 1000Mbit. I'll double check the drivers - I just checked Linksys and they still have the same driver set on their website that shipped with the card. I should also point...

    NW6 hangs on restart/down

    I have NW6 w/SP3 and all the latest patches. After I installed SP3 my server consistently locks up when issuing a "restart server" or "down". It usually hangs after all the volumes are dismounted. CTRL+ALT+ESC does not work and I always have to resort to non-graceful power...

    Linksys Gigabit and NW6 compatability?

    Has anyone successfully used the Linksys EG1064 or EG1032 gigabit server adapter with Netware 6? I notice that it only ships with NW5 drivers. Thanks, John

    What to Expect: Migrating from 3.12 to 6?

    First, basically anything that could have gone wrong went wrong with my migration. It was not an easy migration! I assume you are migrating to new hardware. 1. you need to have some version of DOS installed as a "base OS". NW6 comes with a version of Caldera Dr. DOS which would be...

    Console One starts extremely slow on workstation

    I am trying to run ConsoleOne from a workstation using a mapped drive. I am running the consoleone executable that resides on the server. The splash screen appears and it takes almost 15 minutes for ConsoleOne to load. Once it finally loads, everything runs at normal speed. ConsoleOne loads...

    How do I set up capture.exe forms in NW6?

    Thanks, your suggestion worked...actually I had two problems. I had used NWADMIN32 to set up forms but they weren't being recognized by capture. It turns out that I must have migrated the old capture.exe from my NW3.12 server to a search drive...because I was using the wrong version of capture...
