That holds the answer to fixing the time-out by default behavior for non-domain mapped drives.

Whats the answer?

Keep scrolling it's at the bottom. But I don't think this is a solution to your problem. See my above post.

meh your right
not really what I was after for.
Regardless I just realized that Win2k machine has a max 10 user license. WTH. This network gets worse and worse.

There is a small "loophole" to those max users if I recall. I think if the user trying to connect after the 10 limit has been reached is set as an Admin, they can login without issue (I guess a "Backdoor" of sorts in case the Admin needs to kick people off etc... 60 admins though on one Win2k machine? Common).

Im at a damn loss here besides upgrading our user licenses all over the place just to let this one god-awful app run.

I don't understand what the problem is. Why not install the app on the NetWare server and share it out from there? If your users must log in through Windows then install GSN and the problem is solved.

er... excuse my Novell ignorance. But how do I install a win32 app on a Novell Netware server?

you don't, it is a NOVELL server, not a windows box.

Try installing Gateway Services for Netware

How will that allow him to run Windows apps on the Netware box? The basic issue will still be the same - 10 people will connect to the Windows box (to then gateway into the Netware box) and then he'll run out of connections.

Plus there's the fact that GSNW doesn't run on workstation versions of the OS - he'd need Server. And if he's got server, that fixes his entire problem right there...

Woowee, man I havent gone into the forum or this site for ages. I say to myself, let me login before the admin delete my account

Anyways, let me try to help you out here. You have Netware(what ver? 5.1,6.0 or 6.5). You said you running Win2k? Is this Server or Workstation? Sorry I asked, but I didnt read entire post(too freaking lazy), I only read your and few posts below. Is your NW x.x box running pure IP or mixed with IP and IPX? Are you running NDS? What about your Win2k(I assumed this are the server)? Are you running any AD,DNS,DHCP,etc. Let me know.

 

[klnyc]

Bah never mind, he's running Windows 2000 Pro wkstn.
sorry...

Why not intergrate the MS server into NDS instead of using AD? Then the server resources can be controlled by NDS
