Re: Client Access W/Netware Cleint 32

["Ed Tate" <etate01@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm close but not exact.  Using a 100mb ? card, AS400 V3R7, new 
CA w/ 48155, Novell 32 client, NT 4.0, Novell 4.11, etc..... on a 
Gateway box.  Everything works most of the time - sometimes I hang on 
shutdown but I also run a lot of other stuff during the day.  All 
network connections work when I want them.

What we have found that makes the most difference is disabling ALL
power management features that run on boxes.  I would guess that the
problem is coming from the laptop and the card and not the other
stuff.

Is the hang a permanent thing or just impatience?   The AS/400 is 
sometimes slow to respond to a PC request.  If the laptop is running 
IP, can you ping it after it hangs?

Good luck.  Let us know what you find out.
