Windows 95 can run with the NetWare NETX and VLM client software. Before installing Windows 95, make sure that you have the necessary Novell-supplied files for Windows support, which can be obtained from Novell.
Caution
Novell-supplied components for using the NetWare client with Windows 95 require that you log on to the appropriate NetWare server before starting Windows 95. As with earlier versions of Windows, you should not log on to a NetWare server from within Windows 95.
Instead, log on to the server from AUTOEXEC.BAT or from a batch file that is called from AUTOEXEC.BAT. You should also continue to load the necessary MS-DOS – based TSR programs using AUTOEXEC.BAT or STARTNET.BAT.
For information about where a logon command should be placed in system startup files, see Chapter 11, "Logon, Browsing, and Resource Sharing."
The following section describes how to set up and configure Windows 95 with a Novell-supplied client.
