NET.CFG Options Reference

NetWare DOS Requester Option

1 = Enabled but not preferred

2 = Preferred

3 = Required

NOTE:

 

Setting this option to 2 or 3 increases security but decreases performance.

Modules

NWP.VLM, SECURITY.VLM

 

 

 

 

 

 

Example

To designate the level of enhanced security support as

 

 

 

“required,” you would place the following lines in your

 

 

 

NET.CFG file:

 

 

 

netware dos requester

 

 

 

signature level=3

 

 

 

 

Do not set the signature level in the NET.CFG file to a value of 0 if you are using AUTO RECONNECT or BIND RECONNECT parameters when connecting to NetWare 3 or earlier servers.

If this value is set to 0 in this situation, the reconnect feature will not function.

TRUE COMMIT=[on off]

Selects whether the commit NCP is sent on DOS commit requests.

Off = Opts for performance over integrity

On = Opts for integrity over performance

Set this option to “on” when processing critical data (for example, database applications) to guarantee data integrity.
