Summary:
SYMPTOMS
A user reported that running LINK.EXE on Novell Netware Versions
2.12 and 2.15 would replace an unrelated executable file of the same
name which was located on his system path. The file of the same name
with the .EXE extension did not exist in his current working directory.
CAUSE
His system path was being searched and the first occurrence of a file
of the same name was replaced.
RESOLUTION
There is a utility with Novell Netware versions 2.12 and 2.15, called
SMODE, that will determine how the path is searched. When the user
executed this, with "appropriate values", LINK.EXE worked as intended.
