    Weird delay when accessing mapped drive

    Microsoft wierdness equals reboot to resolve yet again. Don't know what caused the system to cause that particular share to slow down access so much.

    Weird delay when accessing mapped drive

    Whoops spoke too soon. Problem returned after a few moments. It appears that clearing out sessions helped but other users immediately stepped in with more sessions. Rebooting the system may resolve the problem but I won't be able to do that until this weekend. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

    Can NW6 server get an IP from a Win2K DHCP server?

Once I switched to a direct connection the system came right up on the network. Thanks to everyone for all the advice. Thanks to...

    Exploding a patch .exe file

    Ran accross a doc stating the .exe file had to be run from the root of the drive it was being run on. I tried it and was able to extract the files. Install went fine once I copied the files and ran it from CD. Thank you very much for all your help.

    Exploding a patch .exe file

    I've tried that on my Win2K workstation but the file doesn't appear to extract anything. Is it creating it's own directory somewhere on the system?

    Can NW6 server get an IP from a Win2K DHCP server?

    Can't seem to get my server on the net. I have set the static settings manually but I am apparently still missing something because I can't see the system on my network. Does anyone know if it is possible to configure a NW6 server to accept DHCP settings from a Win2K network? I just want to get...

    Installing Netware 6 for the first time and completely new to this OS. Trying to load SP2 from the local server but all the instructions tell you to "explode" the file but do not indicate how to do so. Is there a specific module or app I should be using to do this? The system is...
