If it is set to ON, then the SLP name space provider can send multicast requests (224.0.1.22) to Server Agents (SAs) in the event the service could not be found using a DA. Setting this to ON also allows the SLP User  Agent (UA) to attempt to locate a DA using multicast (224.0.1.35). If this is set to OFF, then the SLP name space provider must send all service requests to DAs (unicast) and is NOT allowed to send multicast requests to SAs.

This setting was implemented to help accommodate applications that did not properly release resources on the network.

Environment Pad
     Registry Key: HKLM\Network\Novell\System Config\NetWare DOS Requester\ENVIRONMENT PAD
     Registry Value: [string] 0
     Default Value: 17
     Range: 17 - 512 bytes
     Client Version: Implemented by at least the 95/98 Client version 2.5 or higher.
     Description: Environment Pad specifies the number of bytes added to a DOS program's environment space before executing the program. If there are several Environment variables (created using SET statements), then this value may need to be increased to accomodate them, otherwise some of the variables may not be available to the DOS program.

File Cache Level

     Description: This controls whether buffers flushed by an application are commited immediately to disk on the server. Setting this value to On will ensure data integrity at the expense of significantly reduced file write performance. This is because the when this is set On, the Client must immediately commit the file changes to disk on the server and must wait until the server acknowledges that the changes have been written instead of just requiring an acknowledgement from the server that the write request has been received (shows as disk request and then as dirty cache buffer if it sits long enough). This parameter is an implementation of the File Commit functionality used in the Windows NT Novell Client.

     Description: The list specifies the order in which Name Space Providers are used to attempt to resolve Service Names. All configured name service providers (NSP) are queried asynchronously in order to resolve a service name to an address. They are first queried with a cache flag that allows NSPs who maintain a cache to attempt to resolve the name. If no NSP resolves the name then they are queried again without the cache flag, allowing NSPs to attempt to resolve the name on the network. The client either waits the time specified by the Name Resolution Timeout or until all the queried NSPs respond with a NOT_FOUND or NO_MORE status.
