I think some awareness on the state of the aged Netware Client for OS/2, eCS is critical to try and get a refresh of the client.
>session on wireless networking under OS/2). The title of this
>presentation is tentatively "Connecting OS/2 Clients to NetWare
>Networks," and proposes to cover the following areas of interest:
>
> * Current state of the OS/2 NetWare Requester, including an overview
> of the latest patches available
The latest patches on the client for eCS only help a disappearing IPX protocol.
> * Installation & configuration of the requester on an OS/2 or eCS
> workstation, with an eye toward potential traps & pitfalls
> * Techniques for automatic & semi-automatic login
The Netware client for eCS ONLY ALLOWS for a Bindery Login (that I am aware of) on the latest versions of Netware as long as IPX
protocol exists on the local network. NO login is available in a PURE IP Environment which Novell is pushing hard for.
> * Survey of OS/2 functionality under different versions of NetWare
> from 3.12 through 6.0
> * Managing NetWare servers from OS/2 stations: what's possible &
> what isn't
Managing only Netware 5.1 or Higher with IManager is possible - reason is IMANAGER is done in a browser so it is possible. No
client is necessary for basic server management. Authentication is done in the brower.
> * Printing under NetWare
Only is supported in a Queue based Netware or directly to printing device in a direct IP connection bypassing any netware at all.
> * Workstation backup options in a NetWare environment
> * Newer NetWare client functionality under OS/2 (iPrint, iFolder,
> etc.): what works? how?
NO Support at all with iPrint or iFolder unless done from a browser. There is specialized client software for the win32 environment.
> * Support options
>
I would love to attend but am already committeed around that time, plus travelling to US dramatically affects conversion of CDN to
USD... which becomes $$$ for me.
Sincerely
