Hope someone can help here.

I have Win98 client (using Novell client32 3.3 for Win98)logging in to Netware5.1SBS sp2a server through a DUN connection.

Have finally configured Netware connect etc so the dial-in works but it is unbelievably slow.

Have even disabled login scripts, but still it authenticates, shows results window, this disappears and then the DUN dialog box just sits there for 5-10 minutes saying Logging on to Network before finally disappearing.

What am I missing?????

Any help gratefully appreciated as the Novell forums seem to be completely down today - what fabulous timing - I'm really under pressure to ge this sorted.

Thanks in advance.

I seem to have sorted this problem by removing/disbling the Novell Workstation Manager service from the client machine. Now, after the Results window appears, the DUN dialog box is dismissed and the client is logged on reasonably quickly.

However, I have another problem. The modem connection speed is only 19200 bps. I have chnaged board settings in inetcfg/boards to 115200 as per the Novell kb article, and then changed the modem data rate to 57600 in niascfg/configure nias/ports/(select port)/modem advanced settings but it still connects at 19200 and in the port status when connected, shows:

Max data rate: 19200
Default data rate: 57600

What else can I change. I must be close..
Hope someone can help....

Thnaks in advance.
