Optimizing the NetWare Client Software

Improving Security

Sensitive and Nonsensitive Information Reside on the Same Server

Example	The NetWare server has a directory for executable
	programs and a separate directory for corporate finances
	(such as accounts receivable).
Solution	The network supervisor sets the server to level 2 and the
	client workstations that need access to accounts
	receivable to level 3. All other client workstations
	remain at the default level 1.
Client Workstation Users Often Change Locations
Example	The network supervisor is uncertain which employees
	will be using which client workstations, and the NetWare
	server contains some sensitive data.
Solution	The network supervisor sets the server to level 3. Client
	workstations remain at the default level 1.
Client Workstation Is Publicly Accessible
Example	An unattended client workstation is set up for public
	access to nonsensitive information, but another server on
	the network contains sensitive information.
Solution	The network supervisor sets the sensitive server to
	level 3 and the unattended client workstation to level 0.

Installing NCP Packet Signature

To install the NCP packet signature support, you must set a parameter used in the NET.CFG file on each client workstation and a SET command used at each NetWare server.

Workstation Setting

To install NCP packet signature on a DOS or MS Windows client workstation, add this line to the NET.CFG file under the NetWare DOS Requester option:

signature level = number

For example, you would type

1-11
