Logging In from a NetWare Client Workstation

Logging In from MS Windows

Logging In from MS Windows

You can use the NetWare User Tools in MS Windows to log in to NetWare 2, NetWare 3, and NetWare 4 by completing these steps.

The “Login” option under NetWare User Tools for MS Windows authenticates you to NetWare Directory Services™ in NetWare 4 or to a NetWare server in NetWare 2 and NetWare 3 networks. It does not run a login script for your client workstation.

If you want to run a login script, your initial login should be done at the DOS command line with the LOGIN utility before loading MS Windows.

Procedure

1Load the NetWare User Tools (NWUSER.EXE) by choosing the “NetWare User Tools” icon from the NetWare group.

The “NetWare User Tools” interface screen appears.

2From the menu bar, choose the “NetWare Connections” icon.

The “NetWare Connections” window displays available resources.

3From the “Resources” list, choose the resource that you want to log in to.

4Choose “Login.”

You might be prompted to enter a password before login is completed. Choose the “Guest” radial button if you do not have an account established on the server or network that you want to connect to.

If you prefer logging in directly from MS Windows, you can simulate some login script functionality by using the “Permanent” option in the “NetWare Drive Connections” window to set up your client workstation drive mappings.
