Q: I don't exaclty understand the meaning of some ponits in nw.ini:
12,13
What will happen if I will not put PASSWORD here? Will it take it from
/etc/passwd? I want it to be so.
A: This passwords will be stored (crypted) into bindery to can handle
the crypted login call from a standarrd Novell client.
Q: What role plays: 15?
What if I will no supply passwd here?
A: This is for automatic inserting UNIX Users as mars_nwe users.
All of these automatic inserted users will get the password
as the crypted bindery password.
Q: File write will not work under WIN3.1, WfW
A: Try updating C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\STORAGE.DLL. I find that earlier
versions of this file evince the problem you describe under Windows 3.1
and 3.11. Precisely when this problem went away in STORAGE.DLL I don't
know, but versions dated October 1994 or later are working for us.

Q: I do not have longfilenamesupport.
A: Give the volume the 'O' flag.
Set section 6 in nwserv.conf to > 0.
Win95, by default, does not use long filenames on a netware 3.11
server. This is documented in the resource kit help file and
elsewhere. You should read that to find out the ramifications, but
with real netware I've had good luck using the recommended registry
settings. Here is a registry import file:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\NWREDIR]
"SupportLFN"=hex:02
Q: I have 2 Eth-devices (one for IP/IPX and one for IPX only)
and after starting mars_nwe I have strange problems with my IP-net.
A: Make sure that all Eth-devices have an assigned IP-address, even
they are only used for IPX.
Q: I have arcnet cards and I dont find the frame-typ TRXNET.
A: The correct frame typ is handled by the arcnet driver.
You should use the 'dummy frametyp' 802.3.
Q: The CONFIG_IPX_INTERN kernel option is *not* set but
when I start 'nwserv' as root it sais:
!! NWSERV 0:PANIC !!
NWSERV 0:!! configuration error !!:
mars_nwe don't run with kernel 'full internal net'.
Change kernel option CONFIG_IPX_INTERN=NO (nobody needs it)
or use 'ipxd' and change mars_nwe INTERNAL_RIP_SAP=0.
A: Sorry but mars_nwe can recognize this setting only at compile time,
so you must compile mars_nwe again with actual kernel CONFIG_IPX_INTERN=NO
settings.
