Q.
I am getting bindery connections to some of the servers in my network when logging in to my eDirectory tree using the intraNetWare client for NT. What gives?

Dear Not Wanting: First of all, you should upgrade your client immediately to the most current one on Novell's Web site, but I know that this is not specifically the root of your problem. What has probably happened is that an unattended install script has been run previously on your NT workstations. This process has added a PREFERRED BINDERY SERVER entry in the workstations' registry.
Delete the PREFERRED BINDERY SERVER entry from the install script and also from the workstations' machine registry. The process is as follows:
[NovellNetWareClientParameters] !Preferred_Server = AUTHENT_SERVER !Preferred_Tree = PREFERRED_TREE !Tree_List1 =CUSTOMER_TREE !Default_Context_List1 = USER_CONTEXT !Preferred_Bindery_Server = BINDERY_SERVER
