Abstract
This sample program allows you to experiment with different file formats (long names & DOS names) when assigning trustee rights to files or directories. It uses the Windows APIs to retrieve the long and short names of paths and files.
The program comes in two variants:
AddTrust.* as a GUI interface application for experimentation with path formats, LRights.* as a Win32 command line tool that emulates the functionality of the RIGHTS.EXE command to grant trustee rights, but adds the feature of allowing long file/path names.
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
LOCWINxx.DLL
where xx stands for `16' or `32'
|
NetWare SDK used: |
NDK Nov 1998 |
|
Platform: |
Windows 95/98/NT |
|
Compilers: |
Borland Delphi 2.x/3.x/4.x |
Though it was not written for Delphi v1.x (16bit), it could be converted with only minor modifications.

Detailed Description
VB sample code which demonstrates how to use NWCliSkt and NWSrvSkt ActiveX components. This sample is a simple peer-to-peer chat over TCP connection. You should run this application on two computers, once as a listening server and once as a connecting client. For testing purpose you can also run this application having the only PC.
Just run two instances of this program, as a listening server and as a client. It will also work and communicate (tested on WinNT only). Don't forget to switch focus to your LOCAL window (using mouse) if you want to see and send your text.
Entered text is char by char sent to the remote peer. Character is evaluated and used for very simple text edition. Only basic error handling is implemented to keep the code simple.

Abstract
This program is intended to show how to register a service and also obtain name space independence with WinSock 2. It is intended to create a service named "DevNet" and add it to the SAP and SLP name spaces.
The service is deleted from the name spaces when the NLM is unloaded.
Detailed Description
To see that the service is registered to SLP name space, type "Display SLP Services" at the console. To see the instance of the SAP service, type Display Servers or load IPXCON.NLM and select Services.
Note: There may be intermittent problem with seeing the registered service on a NetWare 5 server without Support Pack 1 installed. You can download Support Pack 1 from http://support.novell.com/, click on "MINIMUM PATCH LIST".

Abstract
Sample code which demonstrates how to use Novell's ActiveX control NWDir in HTML document.
This code shows how using NWDir ActiveX control objects and their attributes can be retrieved from the DS tree. Microsoft's Internet Explorer 4.x must be used in order to run this demo because other browsers do not support Microsoft's ActiveX object components and VBScript.
Detailed Description
Sample code which demonstrates how to use Novell's ActiveX control NWDir in HTML document. This code shows how using NWDir ActiveX control objects and their attributes can be retrieved from the DS tree. Microsoft's Internet Explorer 4.x must be used in order to run this demo because other browsers do not support Microsoft's ActiveX object components and VBScript.
Local versions of NWDir and NWSess controls is used in this sample. It means that only PCs with locally installed NWDir and NWSess controls (and also NW client) can run this sample code.
IExplorer browser is capable to download required AX component from the remote source when CODEBASE=... argument is used in tag for given ActiveX component.
Some more tags are used in this sample for inserting Microsoft Windows Forms components ListBox, ComboBox and CommandButton. In general there should not be problems in getting these objects from the local PC, these objects should be already installed and registered there (at least by IE).
Known problems and limitations:
Only connected DS trees are shown and accessible. User must be logged-in prior to run this sample code.
For DS tree listing CommandButon "List Container" must be used. This is not very common and comfortable way. The original idea was to use List1.DblClick event but as I found there is no way how to catch this event in IExplorer. If you know how to do it, please let me know.
I did not find solution how to change mouse cursor in IE whenewer time consuming operation takes place in the HTML page. This might be rather confusing, especially if DS tree is quite a big one and any DS related operation takes its time. Again let me know, if you have solution for this.
On PCs with only 32MBytes RAM IExplorer might complain that it is out of memory. This seems to be Microsoft's issue since there is usually lot of free resources on the PC.

Abstract
The sample program fssrch.c does a lookup for NetWare file servers in SAP and SLP. The NLM program will work on NetWare 4.11 with support pack 6 and NetWare 5.
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
DSReport is a Delphi 2.x/3.x/4.x application that illustrates the use of Delphi with NetWare APIs. It will allow you to run reports on any objects in an NDS tree. The resulting data can be exported into text, Excel, or QuattroPro files.
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 Client32 software installed.
|
NetWare SDK used: |
NDK (Jan 99) |
|
Platform: |
Windows/95/98/NT |
|
Compilers: |
Borland Delphi 2.x/3.x/4.x |
Though it was not written for Delphi v1.x (16bit), it could be converted with only minor modifications.
Functions Used:
D3NDSRpt demonstrates the following high-level functions:
ReadSelectedProperties
DSFindFirstObject
DSFindNextObject
DSReadAvailableClasses
DSReadAvailableAttributes
These in term call the APIs
NWDSAllocBufNWDSComputeAttrValSize
NWDSCreateContextHandle
NWDSFreeBuf
NWDSFreeContext
NWDSGetAttrCount
NWDSGetAttrName
NWDSGetAttrVal
NWDSGetClassDefCount
NWDSGetClassDef
NWDSGetClassItemCount
NWDSGetClassItem
NWDSGetContext
NWDSGetObjectCount
NWDSGetObjectName
NWDSInitBuf
NWDSList
NWDSPutAttrName
NWDSPutClassItem
NWDSRead
NWDSReadClassDef
NWDSSetContext
Comment:
The unit MAIN.PAS mainly contains display formatting, defualt readings, etc. The key functions are a bit hidden in DELPHI_U.PAS DoSomethingForEachObject2 calls a 2nd function (ReadSelectedProperties) recursively for each matching object ReadSelectedProperties reads the selected property for the selected object.
DSFindFirstObject allows you to scan the NDS objects.
DSFindNextObject
DSReadAvailableClasses reads all NDS classes for a tree DSReadAvailableAttributes reads all NDS attributes for an object type.
These functions are so generic, they can serve many purposes. They encapsulate the low level NDS APIS and allow rapid application development with low level APIs.

Abstract
This TID shows how to extract UNC path information from NDS Volume and Directory Map objects.
It does this by implementing a DS browser dialog that lets you select files by double clicking and expanding objects in a treeview, much as you would in NWAdmin.
Sources are in Visual Basic 4.
Detailed Description
The sample uses the DeveloperNet 2000 ActiveX controls to build an NDS tree view that displays volume and directory map objects. Expanding these objects will allow the user to browse subdirectories and files. The dialog can be used as a lookup when entering UNC path information, such as for Application objects.
