I have a small network that consist of a W2K and a Novell 4.11 server and a number of W98 and W2K clients. My print devices are network attacted printer that are connected to the W2K server via TCP/IP. All clients log into the Novell F/S and are authenticated on the W2k server. I run several application on the network like MAS90 for accounting and a few other applications.

Whenver I'm logging into my server I getthe error listed above. It appears that Novell willnot authenticate the user "Administrator" even though that is a valid user name. I also encounter this problem from time to timeon W98 clients and the onbly resolution is to re-boot the servers.

Any suggestions?
 
Are you running out of available licenses?

That's a common symptom / resolution because it frees up all the licenses and essentially starts over on the license count.
