Hi all!
First off, I wish to thank EVERYONE who supplied ideas/hints/clues and links.This has been a BUSY thread, and attracted a lot of attention.
LATEST UPDATE:
I applied the complete registry mods as suggested/supplied at http://www.ithowto.com/novell/clientspeed.htm
and tried several other...
AS AN UPDATE:
I installed the kindly supplied 4.80 client (THANKS AGAIN jscottd) on a w2k machine, and it was like turbo-charging that puppy!
No other changes other than to remove the 4.83 client and install the 4.80 client. Which leads to the question: "what's different here?"...
Thanks, but i was already there. while i can honestly say i didnt get to try them all yet, there was no significant improvement with those items i did try. it also doesnt explain whats different in 4.83 that makes it so much slower than 4.81 was. SAME NETWORK, SAME CLIENT & S/W PACKAGE. its not...

I have the latest C1 for my W/S, and they dont list any extra snap-ins.
THEY are supposed to be...
whereintheheck do you you get ConsoleOne snap-ins. I need to be able to create printer objects.
PLEASE DONT send me to download.Novell.com, their webmaster OBVIOUSLY spent far too much time imitating microsoft.com, and its far too frustrating to use.
I'm using C1 1.3 on linux, and I can...
I have an ancient RCD (pinnacle Micro) CD burner. I can create CDs under win95, but the linux commands (cdrecord and cdwrite) as well as the CDRoast program only produce expensive coasters. The device is properly detected, and I can put tracks on the CD, but nothing useable can be created. (No...
The protocol.ini files that NT creates often misses several necessary switches. Try the following in your protocol.ini file. its not TCP/IP, but works great under netbeui. Unless you have deliberately removed netbeui, it should allow you to connect to the server. I have...
