SUMMARY

This article discusses Novell NetWare utilities that do not run under Windows 95.

MORE INFORMATION

NWUSER.EXE

Unlike previous versions of NETWARE.DRV, which were provided by Novell, Microsoft wrote the NETWARE.DRV file provided with Windows 95. This NETWARE.DRV file does not support NWUSER because the user interface in Windows 95 provides similar functionality.

PSERVER.EXE

The Novell PSERVER utility makes connections by logging you off the network and then logging you back in as a PSERVER object. Because this limits the workstation to PSERVER functions, Windows 95 does not support this utility.

NDS

To use a utility (such as NWADMIN or NETADMIN) that requires you to be logged in to the NetWare Directory Services (NDS) or that makes NDS API calls, you must install the Microsoft Service for NetWare Directory Services (MSNDS). For information about obtaining MSNDS, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
