I need some help. I'm trying to install ADS database server 6.11 on a Netware 5.0 server however I need to have the latest Netware Support Pack installed in order to install advantage. I downloaded and tried installing support pack 6a which is the latest pack, when I installed this support pack I was no longer able to boot my Netware 5 server I found that the problem was I need to have the latest nici installed in order to install support pack 6a and I need at least support pack 2 to install the update for nici. I am unable to find support pack 2 anywhere does anyone have this support pack or can you tell me where to get it. Is there a way to get around this update when installing SP6a?
 
Why don't you download and install NICI first? Then you can install SP6a? This is usually the correct way of applying things? -----------------------------------------------------

By the way, Novell only recommend SP2 or higher. If you install NICI, reboot, then install SP6a immediately after, you should not have a problem. -----------------------------------------------------

I ended up installing Netware 5.1 instead of 5.0 because I couldn't find sp2. I then was able to install sp6.

Thanks!
 
But the latest SP for NetWare 5.1 is SP4???? -----------------------------------------------------
