Hello Could you possibly supply me with some technical help ? I work for BASF computers service ltd and we use Netware 5.1 for file and print services and our workstations are soon to move to Windows 2000. We are trying to improve things for laptop users and one feature we thought was very good in Windows 2000 is "offline files/folders". I realise that this will only work with a SMB server and was hoping to use SAMBA to enable this feature within our Netware environment. Could you please tell me if (a) you think this is feasible and (b) if SAMBA works with Netware 5.1. I have tried to load it on our test server but I get a critical abend whenever I load the nbns.nlm. Is there another release due for Netware 5 as the existing version looks over 4 years old ? I would be grateful for any suggestions or advice you can offer Regards Dave Buckley MOB: +44 7770 633 799 e-mail dave.buckley@basf-c-s.co.uk
