Re: Help with SQLNet on NT client?

Billy,

Yes thanks - it wasn't that bad :-)

Anyway, to complete the picture I did in the end sort out the setup. The secret is to replace the vipx.exe call that the Novell netware client installs in the autoexec.nt with the original vwipxspx.exe call from the old MS Netware client. It seems that the MS version emulates the ipx stack in the VDM better than the Novell version. ("better" in this case being closer to what sqlnet1 expects).

Thanks again for your comments.

Regards

Chris
