Q.
When I am importing schema from a NetWare 6 server into an existing network that has existing NetWare 5.0/5.1 and/or NetWare 4.11/4.2 servers, I receive a -699 error. What can I do to get the NetWare 6 schema work?

Dear Matching: The problem is caused by a difference in the schema SYNTAX between the current production tree and the NetWare 6 tree. Such importing generally fails on a schema attribute called "photo." But other attributes such as "pager" and "rbsPageMembership" may be affected as well. For more information, please refer to TID #10066345, entitled "-699 Error When Importing Schema from a NetWare 6 Server."
