Sending Messages from WinPopup to NWPOPUP in Windows 95

ID: Q120223

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 95

SUMMARY

Although you can use WinPopup to send messages to someone using NWPOPUP, there are some limitations.

MORE INFORMATION

Windows 95 lets you run the client for Windows networks (VREDIR) and the Client for NetWare networks (NWREDIR) together. If you send a message using WinPopup, VREDIR handles the request. In the event that VREDIR fails, WinPopup attempts to send the pop-up message to everyone on your preferred or default NetWare server.

The fact that the recipient must be on your preferred server is one of the limitations. The other limitation is that the message cannot exceed 38 characters.

Novell NetWare is manufactured by Novell, Inc., a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
