Conserving memory
During NetWare client installation, you add the line
CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT
to the beginning of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. This command then loads four
programs into DOS memory—LSL.COM, MACODI.COM, IPXODI.COM,
and VLM.EXE (in this order). To conserve memory in the lower DOS region,
you may wish to edit the STARTNET.BAT file (installed with your NetWare
software) to load those four programs with the LOADHIGH (LH) command.
See your DOS documentation for details on manually optimizing DOS
memory. (Be aware that the Microsoft utility MEMMAKER does not work
with the DOS-compatible Macintosh.)
Mapping drive letters
When you map a network resource as a drive letter, the Macintosh PC Setup
control panel recognizes that that drive letter is unavailable for use as a shared
folder. However, when the network no longer uses the drive letter, PC Setup
still shows it as unavailable for shared folders until you restart the PC
environment.
In addition, if a drive letter is being shared before you start up the PC
environment and Novell needs to use that drive letter, then the Novell
network drive will take precedence over that shared drive letter.
For further information, see your Novell installation and administration
manuals, or contact your network adminstrator.
