[RESOLVED] Networking compatability

[bor_yam]

I'm trying to get a Windows 2000 machine to see a Novell network, the Novell network is rather old, and i was told win2k can work it just fine, for some reason i can see the network, but cant connect, or authenticate to it, please help me in what ever way possible.

Many Thanks.

better yet - use the microsoft provided - client for netware.
less buggy...
dont go by server - use your tree and organization, otherwise you will be authenticating in bindery instead of NDS

agreed...the MS client for Novell has MUCH less overhead...check in the control panel to adjust settings
