Q.
I am installing a NetWare 6 server into my existing tree, but when the installer tries to login, the installation process seems to hang. What can I do about this one?

Dear Hanging: Check to ensure that the time is synchronized. You cannot log in until time is in sync. To perform the check, press Alt-Esc and toggle to the system console prompt. Then type TIME <Enter>.
If the TIME command does not say that time is in sync, you might need to enter time sources manually by using the MONITOR utility, selecting Server SET Parameters, then the Time category. Once your time sources are entered in, perform a Timesync Restart command through the MONITOR utility. When time on the server is in sync, you should be able to log in.
