I've upgraded my netware 5.1 to 6.0 sp3, I already had the netware connect 2.0 that came with 5.1 but since it doesn't work with NW 6.0, I have to install the NIAS42 from BM 3.6. But when I try to install NIAS, I get the message :
An error occured while parsing file "bm36ee:nias42\niasbs.ips", line 1, at or near word or symbol "Erasefile". Error description : Syntaxe error. (Nwconfig-6-232)

I did test on an other server that never had nias and was installed directly from NW 6.0 sp3 and I didn't have that problem.

anybody ???

HI,

If I remember correctly, you need to uninstall the NetWare Connect first.

1. At server console type NWCSTOP
2. Go into NWCONFIG --> Product Options --> View/Configure/Remove installed products --> press [Delete] on NetWare Connect.
3. Delete 2 directories in the SYS: SYSTEM directory. The AIO directory and the CONNECT directory.
4. In the SYS: SYSTEM directory, rename all of the (nwc*.btr) files to (*.old). Also, rename the NWCSTART.NCF and NWCSTOP.NCF to NWCSTART.OLD and NWCSTOP.OLD.
5. Reboot server.
6. Reinstall using NIAS
