Abstract
With Novell's NT Client, when calling NWSetBroadcastMode to set the workstation's broadcasting mode to poll, NWSetBroadcastMode needs to be called twice in order for the messages to be successfully retrieved later. send.exe utility exhibits the same behavior.
This should be fixed in the future client releases.
Detailed Description
With Novell's Windows NT Client:
If you want to set the workstation's broadcasting mode to poll using send.exe, you type "SEND /A=P", and any messages received by the workstation can be retrieved by typing "SEND /P". However, with Novell's NT Client, you need to type "SEND /A=P" twice in order to successfully set the broadcasting mode to poll.
When using the NWSetBroadcastMode API, you need to call it twice also.
e.g. NWSetBroadcastMode(connHandle, 0x0003) //This needs to be called twice.

Detailed Description
When doing SAP name space (NS_SAP) registration using WinSock 2 API, it is possible that you get error code 10022 (Invalid argument) or 10049 (Cannot assign requested address) return from WSASetService. In this case, check to see if SOCKET_ADDRESS structure's iSockaddrLength field is set to sizeof(SOCKADDR_IPX). When you set iSockaddrLength to sizeof(SOCKADDR) and with WSAQuerySet's dwNameSpace field set to NS_SAP, WSASetService returns 10022 or 10049 with Novell's SAP provider. In general this is considered an error. However, since sockaddr_ipx is 14 bytes and programmers (incorrectly) expect sockaddrs to be a minimum of 16 bytes, Novell's SAP provider should still be able to accept the value, but reduce it to 14 bytes internally. This should be fixed in the future client releases.

Abstract
DSCOPY.C is a sample code which shows how DS leaf object can be easily copied in three steps from SOURCE to DESTINATION using existing NWDS() calls.
Detailed Description
DSCOPY.C is a sample code which shows how DS leaf object can be easily copied in three steps from SOURCE to DESTINATION using existing NWDS() calls:
First source object is saved using NWDSBackupObject().
Next source object is moved to the new location using NWDSMoveObject() or in case newly created object is in the same container as the source source object is renamed using NWDSModifyRDN().
Finally source object is restored using NWDSRestoreObject().
You should be aware that applying this simple method of copy on a DS leaf object, any assignments of the source object which are part of another object may be somehow affected.
This program utilizes existing DS connection and default DS tree.
DS synchronization issue should be considered when implementing this approach into non-trivial DS tree. Password/security issue should also be considered when using NWDSBackupObject() and NWDSRestoreObject() function.

Abstract
The sample program fssrch.c does a lookup for NetWare file servers in SAP and SLP.
The NLM program will only work on NetWare 5 platform at this time.
Detailed Description
This program is intended to show how to obtain name space independence with WinSock.
The example is intended to find NetWare file servers in either IPX or IP Networks. The name spaces NetWare uses are SAP for IPX and SLP for IP. However, as this program will show, it is not necessary to know before hand which name space is loaded in order to find file server names and addresses.

Detailed Description
VB sample code which demonstrates NWConn ActiveX DLL library. Sample code shows how list of active connections (users) can be obtained from the server or how specific connection can be cleared.
This sample code demonstrates usage of ActiveX DLL library NWConnLib (the library file NWConn.DLL comes along with this sample code).
The NWConnLib library (which is mentioned as a temporary supplement for RAD developers to Novell's existing AxtiveX controls) is also available including source code as TID sample VBCONLIB at http://developer.novell.com.
You have to register NWConnLib library in your system prior to use it. For registration please use program REGSVR32.EXE

Abstract
This sample code is ActiveX DLL connection library written in Visual Basic. It provides several basic methods and properties for NW connection management in RAD environment.
Detailed Description
This sample code is ActiveX DLL connection library written in Visual Basic. It is intended as a (temporary) supplement to Novell's existing AxtiveX controls for RAD development.
This connection library offers several properties and methods to provide RAD support for active connection management:
List of active connections on the selected server
ClearConnection() method to clear selected active connection from the server
SendMessage() method to send message to the selected active connection
Connection's properties (login date/time, user ID, connection number, network number)
Server properties (version and revision info, maximum connections, used connections, max. connections used)
These methods and properties are missing from the Novell's current version of ActiveX controls; they can be supplied only by direct DLL calls which is for theRAD developement unacceptable.
NWConnLib uses Novell's DLL calls. This means that 32-bit Novell client must be installed in order to use this library. Also this library must be registered in the system prior to be used. For registration please use program REGSVR32.EXE.
If you want to recompile the source code, you do not need to register the library, VB makes it for you!
The TID sample code VBACTUSR explains how to use this ActiveX DLL in Visual Basic environment.
This ActiveX DLL was tested in VB5 environment only.

NWAdmin95 still exists, but it has been superceded by ADMIN32 which can be found in the Win32 directory. Use Admin32 for everything as long as your running on NW5. Admin32 understands all the new calls.
Detailed Description
Problem: I installed Netware 5.0 with NDPS and started NWAdmin from my Windows 95 client. I get the error "The dynamic link library NLSMGR95.DLL cannot be located or corrupted." After this error I get another error which says NDPS support will be disabled. I still get the NWAdmin window but I could not create NDPS manager and NDPS printer objects.
The NWAdmin was working properly with Netware 4.11 with NDPS support. I was able to create NDPS printers.
Resolution: NWAdmin95 still exists, but it has been superceded by ADMIN32 which can be found in the Win32 directory. Use Admin32 for everything as long as your running on NW5.
Admin32 understands all the new calls and loads all the necessary DLL's.

Abstract
OPENCON2.C is based on the shipping sample code with changes to print out the server's address for NetWare 5 using IPX or IP.
Detailed Description
OPENCON2.C is based on the shipping sample code with changes to print out the server's address for NetWare 5 using IPX or IP. This is the most "generic" call to use for getting addresses in a protocol independent manner, if there is an open connection.
If there is not an open connection, another approach is to query DS for this information.In this case, call NWDSRead() of the NCP Server object that describes the server. The attribute to read is "Net Address"; the syntax is roughly described as {addrType,addrLen, addr} and is multi-valued. On a NetWare 5 server, the IPX and/or IP address will be included. Previous versions of NetWare will have IPX address only.

Abstract
This application was written as a fix to the problem that occurred if a server that is referenced by a map object is moved to a different container, and later deleted.
Since NWAdmin would not update the 'Host Server' attribute of the Directory Map object, you might get invalid mappings.
The program verifies that the 'Host Server' property matches the 'Path' attribute, and updates the 'Host Server' attribute on request.
The program verifies all directory maps in a subtree in or below a given context:
It will read the 'Host Server' attribute of the Directory Map objects.
It retrieves the 'Path' attribute of the Directory Map object
It extracts the Volume object from the path
It retrieves the 'Host Server' attribute of the volume object
It compares 'Host Server' of the Volume with the 'Host Server' of the Directory Map
In case of a mismatch it asks if an update of this object is desired.
More general, this sample Delphi program shows how to...
read and update NDS objects
use the predefined high-level NDS APIs from Delphi_U.PAS to ease NDS development
easily browse through containers and get NDS object info
store NDS objects into lists
easily call recursive procedures for all or selected objects
It also serves as an illustration how easy NDS development is, once some higher level procedures are setup.
General information on how to use Delphi with the NetWare SDK can be found in the HOW-TO.DOC file.
To run the application, you should have the NetWare client software installed and need access to the 16 bit or 32 bit NetWare DLLs as provided in the NetWare Client software:
CALWINxx.DLLNETWINxx.DLL
CLXWINxx.DLL
