Novell Netware Client for Linux? keegan5-Jan-04 9:13 keegan 5-Jan-04 9:13  I've been googling all day long trying to find a novell client for Redhat. I stumbled on the NovelClient, but that keeps giving me errors, and i haven't gotten a response from anyone yet on the forums. Does anyone out there know of a descent Novel Client they've used in linux? All im looking to do is copy some files over onto a mounted drive here in linux from novel. *.* cin >> knowledge; Re: Novell Netware Client for Linux?

Re: Novell Netware Client for Linux? keegan5-Jan-04 10:00 keegan 5-Jan-04 10:00  well, i noticed that, but the 249MB download size turned me off, as im on lowly dsl here at work. Plus, thats got a whole lotta extra baggage. I suppose i could let it download overnight... i think i was looking more for something on the simpler side, heh, but i suppose this will have to do. *.* cin >> knowledge; Login takes too long time mhmoud rawas5-Jan-04 0:06 mhmoud rawas 5-Jan-04 0:06  Hi all, I have a problem in my system and i don't know how to solve it, i have a server where i have installed a win 2000 advanced server and have defined there a domain on an active directory and many users, when i line to loge in from some computers on the network i have a problem, it takes very long time to log in to the domain it is about 2 to 3 minutes so if anybody know how to solve this problem could you pleas tell me what to do Regards Mhmoud Rawas ------------ Software Eng. Re: Login takes too long time rt016-Jan-04 23:50 rt01 6-Jan-04 23:50  Hi, is this problem only from some computers or from many? which network connection do you have (Shared,Switched,Routed)? is the server in the same subnet as the clients with the problem? have you many logon scripts running? is this with all users or some accounts? have you server based profiles? might be corupted? is the problem reproduce able wenn the workstation is rebooted/ runs some time/you log off and log on again? does the name resolution goes well? might be wins?

Re: Login takes too long time Niels Penneman10-Jan-04 1:42 Niels Penneman 10-Jan-04 1:42  The problem only occurs with some computers on your network. I'd go and check these machines first instead of thinking there's something wrong with your server... greetz *Niels Penneman* Software/Dev Site Personal Site Re: Login takes too long time Stefan Pedersen10-Jan-04 13:32 Stefan Pedersen 10-Jan-04 13:32  mhmoud rawas wrote: all the name resolution is correct Are the clients using the PDC as DNS server? XP clients need to use the PDC for DNS otherwise you will get the symptom you described. Configure the server DNS as a forwarder and then add your zone as AD integrated. Atleast this worked at our shop for the same type of problem. (W2K client -> W2K server never had any problem though.)

Some deviants in the past have attempted to define a byte as something other than 8 bits, but octet says it all rather concisely.

It says that if your email server dosn't return a timestamp in it's greeting it dosn't support Authentication. EXAMPLE TIMESTAMP: <1896.697170952@dbc.mtview.ca.us> That just dosn't sound right.

My computer is a standalone XP box connected to a small home network using Workgroups and not a Domain. I find no Advanced tab or Secure Logon section of User Accounts as mentioned by the article. What I do see is Change the way users log on or off option with Use the Welcome screen as the only viable option. Anyone know how I can force Ctrl+Alt+Del as a requirement to reaching the logon screen on my standalone box?

I've found that this changes the behavior of XP badly, and it's the default setting. If so, disable it and force everyone to use passwords. That might restore the screens you should expect from this article's descriptions. If you already use the traditional username/password logon, then I haven't a clue - maybe a service pack since the article was written has changed something. I have yet to see a XP machine that uses this logon box, though, so it probably isn't something easy to change.

Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Change the way users log on or off -> Uncheck Use the Welcome screen It seems that when I connect an XP machine setup this way to a domain the Ctrl+Alt+Del feature appears. Haven't done it for a few months so am not completely sure my memory serves me well and of course no domain handy to test this on.

It may be that this is simply not available unless you're part of a domain.

May be a useful trick to put in the kitbag as you start to run into more and more XP machines.

But what I need is a better bag of tricks to store these little tidbits in. That's what the MS Knowledge Base is supposed to be for, but it's getting harder and harder to find anything relevant in it.

Re: Windows XP and Ctrl+Alt+Del at Logon Sebastián Benítez31-Dec-03 3:27 Sebastián Benítez 31-Dec-03 3:27  You could try this. But first I have to say that my XP is in spanish, so I will have to translate all I've found to english, which might not be the same as your XP. Go to Start menu, then to Administration Tools, then click on Local Security Directives or something like that. A window will open. Select Security options from the tree. In the list panel you will see a lot of strings with options. Look for some that says Interactive session init or something like that, it should have a Ctrl+Alt+Del appended to it. Then try setting it to disabled. Because it is negated, I think you should put there disabled, which in turn should activate the Ctrl+Alt+Del in the login screen.

I found the area you were talking about and and have made the change but will have to wait a few hours before I can reboot the machine to test it as I am in the middle of a large download. I will list the steps I took below to help any other people using the English version of Windows XP find their way through. Go to Control Panel Double Click Administrative Tools Double Click Local Security Policy Click the + next to Local Policies Click Security Options Double Click Interactive logon:Do not require CTRL+ALT+DEL Click Disabled Click Apply Click OK Michael Martin Australia "I suspect I will be impressed though, I am easy." - Paul Watson 21/09/2003 Re: Windows XP and Ctrl+Alt+Del at Logon Roger Wright31-Dec-03 13:57 Roger Wright 31-Dec-03 13:57  That looks like it should do the trick.
