The NetWare Driver Runs Successfully but Fails to Login to The NetWare Server

C: The client Frame type is incompatiable with the server Frame type.

S: The default frame type for Netware 3.11 and below is 802.3 but it changed to 802.2 in Netware 4.x and 3.12. Check the content of NET.CFG to see if the Frame type is acceptable by the server. If the Frame type can not be accepted by the server, edit NET.CFG to change the Frame type at the client site, or add the Frame type which can be accepted at the server site.

COM Port and IRQ Conflicts

If you have isolated the problem to an IRQ or COM port conflict, refer to the following sections for resolving IRQ and COM port conflicts in Windows 3.1 or Windows 95.

Windows 3.1x

To look for COM port or IRQ conflicts in Windows 3.1x, select File Run in Program Manager, type MSD, and press Enter. Then select Mouse, COM Ports, and IRQ Status and note the addresses and IRQs that are in use. If you find an IRQ conflict, note which IRQs are not being used, then change one of the conflicting devices to use one of the unused IRQs. If you find an address conflict, change the address of one of the conflicting devices.

To change a port address or IRQ in Windows 3.1x, double-click the Control Panel icon, then the Ports icon. Click on the port you want to change, click Settings, click Advanced, and select the new port
