No - none of the Oracle Tools run as NLM's on Netware. The only NLM's are the RDBMS itself and the utilities. Your problem sounds strange. OS/2 is a virtual memory system so it should'nt have memory problems but w/o any error message I really cant tell. Make sure you have the latest versions of all s/w (esp the requester and SQL*Net as well as the OS)
