Hi all. Running Office 2007 SP3 on Windows Vista SP2. In the last few days we've stopped being able to save. Any time you open the Save dialogue and wait (without choosing anything) the application just closes. This happens in Word, Excel, Powerpoint, InfoPath, Publisher. Event log shows...

Our AD login script maps all drives persistently, so that VPN users (who do not perform a full login) still have their drives available. I have a requirement for the home directories, mapped from the User Profile, to also be persistent, but can't see any way to do that. Any ideas? I'd rather...

Hi all. Running NW5.1 SP6. When I view the Trustees of a folder, everything is fine. But when I choose "Inherited Rights and Filters" I see whatever "real" groups & their rights, then one or more single letter IDs (e.g. "G") that are allegedly inherited from the volume root. So it looks...

Hi all! We're running NW5.1 SP6 with eDir 85.30. What I need to do is change a setting on multiple users (like hundreds of them) in a timely way. Specifically I want to set/unset "Password Never Expires". I'm aware of the security implications of that but there are good reasons for it. Any...

Hi all. Running W2k3 server (mix of Standard & Advanced). Garbage Collection is reporting that we have only 9MB free space remaining (of 500 total) but I can't find anything that tells me what I should do about it. From Event Log:- Internal event: The Active Directory database has the following...

Hi all. I'm just about to retire a server (5.1 SP6 EDIR 85.30) which among other things is an SLP DA. I've repointed all other servers elsewhere for SLP but is there anything "special" I need to consider before/during the decomm process? Or do I just remove the replica and then DS as normal...

Hi all. I'm looking to retire one of my Domain Controllers, but want to confirm it's not doing anything important that I missed. Specifically, is there some way I can get a log of any device that makes DNS requests to it? In this case it's a W2k server, but if there's a method (same or...

Hi all. Got a puzzle for you - not much to work on I'm afraid. NW5.1 SP6 running on Compaq ML370 (cutting edge stuff!) Server has been stable for the last 5 years (no s/w updates for at least 2 years) build is identical to 3 others on same site & 80+ others worldwide. 3 times in the last 3...

Hi. The server which hosts our SLP has become unstable through age. The tree is due to be decommissioned in about 12 months so all upgrades/spending are on hold :-( So I see 2 alternatives. As we'd prefer not to visit every server in the tree to change the SLP.cfg file, either:- Move the slp...

Hi. We have a NW5.1 SP8 (edir 85.30) which keeps Abending as shown below. Tried various upgrades (server was initially @ SP6 when this started) Also updated Netshield. Is there anyone out there that can make some sense of the log for me please? LIBC.NLM is at the same version on various other...

Hi, NW5.1 SP6 running on HP hardware. The server bombed and will mount Sys2 & Sys3 but not Sys. Q - we have some unallocated disc big enough to create a new Sys volume. Could we do this & bring the existing Sys2 & 3 up from there? Any pitfalls to watch for (assuming it works at all)? Cheers Ian

Greetings. Got a NW5.1 SP6 server running DS8.85 (I know, Very out of date) Hardware is IBMx345. We had 2 abends overnight; the first as per subject line (posted in full below), then second - "Kernel detected a fast worktodo or a legacy polling routine going to sleep" The server finally booted...

I've had a NW51SP6 server die (massive h/w fail) It held replicas (no Masters, just R/W & sub-refs) of various partitions. I've been able to force off the R/W's, but can't figure how to shift the Sub-refs. All the info on the www suggests sending £££ to Novell, but anyone here got ideas before I...

Greetings! Running NW51SP6. The servers are backed up from Brightstor/Arcserve 11.1 on Windoze, and thru the NWAgent. Every so often, the 2 loose connection; Windoze says the job failed, NWAgent says it's still running. At this stage, telling the job to stop from within NWAgent does nothing...

We backup multiple NetWare servers (NW5.1 SP6) from Windows (normally 2000 server but some 2003) using Brightstor 11.1 (build 3105) & associated NetWare agent. On a fairly regular basis, the Windows server fails the backup (usually a "failed to receive data from agent" error) but the NetWare...

Hi! Trying to add space to an existing volume under NW5.1 SP6 Some (only 1 segment) of the partition has already been assigned to a volume but after adding, I get to "Save changes to volume", choose Yes and get the error- An attempt to expand the mounted volume tables failed. Error code 1...

Greetings! IBM x345 running W2003 Enterprise Edition as a Domain Controller. Various hotfixes applied (none recently) - it's a corporate build so the OS config is like 80 others round the world. Version shows as 5.2.3790 At irregular intervals (3 times in the last 7 days) we've found the...

Hi, the information in our Media Prediction Report is wrong. It shows multiple tapes that could be used for tonight's backup, but when I look in the Media Pool, many of the tapes are in the Save Set, rather than Scratch. e.g. Prediction Report << Thursday, 6/02/05 11:00 PM >> Backup Type &...

Hi - I'm running 5.1 SP6 on several Compaq ML370G1's. 2 of these are suffering abends in CPQNCSA.nlm (v5.30) Can I upgrade just this NLM, or are there any related ones I'd need to do as well? Indeed, is this likely to fix the problem? Unfortunately, due to company politics (and 100+ servers...

I understood that the maximum length of the combined pathname & filename is 255 characters. However, I've got a number of files/folders which are upto 273. NetWare doesn't seem too bothered, but I'm now supposed to move the whole lot to a Windows volume, which doesn't work. Renaming folders is...
