We have a new 2008 Server setup to replace an Apple OSX server. Our first Windows file server in years so bear with me. I have a share created and gave read access to the department using it. The Data folder below that gives the department R/W access to everything. There are only 2 special...

I did find the manuals online but they don't go into much detail on the import feature - specifically if they merge the data or create a new record. So should I create a full list for the subdomain and import it, assuming it will delete the originals thereby eliminating duplicates, or should I...

I have to change our wan suffix and am using DNS/DHCP Management Console v6, so I have to create the A record in the new domain, delete it from the old domain and then create a cname in the old that points to the new. As you can imagine this is very time consuming since we have many entries. I...

That is perfect. Thanks for the tip. I had tried looking through the coolsolutions site but didn't see that one! I shall try it this weekend. One volume is being divided into 2 for logistical reasons, we'll see how this handles it. jason

I do have the Mac / long file name support turned on. So copying using a Mac workstation is fine, but I lose all the ACL. Old machine is Novell 6.0, new is 6.5. The filenames always look funny when using a PC. You can browse the files, open them etc. For instance, pressing 'Option-v' on a Mac...

I have set up a new server and want to transfer the data from the old machine. If I use the consolidation utility, the mac filenames get mangled. If I use a mac to copy them over, I lose the ACLs. Is there a tool that does both? If there is nothing, it is a small group so recreating the ACLs...

We are experiencing drastic slowdowns opening or browsing for files throughout the day (Mac and PC users). CPU Load jumps to 80-90% for 10 minutes sometimes, 1 or 2 at other times. Everytime the COMN.NSS is either 1 or 2 in the usage list. I see some mention of problems with older versions of...

Maybe I answered my own question, but can someone confirm? I am guessing that I have less than the hard coded 10% (I've also read 20%) free space limit where NetWare auto purges. Is that it maybe, and AdRem is mistakenly reporting the salvageable size? Jason

I am fairly new to Novell, and the old admin showed me the salvage files option. But I have tested it and nothing ever shows recoverable. Plus in AdRem, it shows 2,097,068MB in the salvage, when we don't have that much drive space total! Is there something wrong? Thanks, Jason

Sorry if this question seems basic, but we have just bought some 7310 units to replace our existing rental phones (also a meridian phone). All transferred fine and picked up the extension and settings except one. This one seems to think that it is extension 228 which is unused. Plugging in the...
