Hi All,

We have a Windows 2000 desktop that crashes when saving to
novell server from all applications and even the dos
prompt using copy cmd, we are applying SP4 to the PC.

Any other ideas?

Cheers
Joe
 
here is a very small list of things to start with once you complete this
list then come back if you have further issues. Yes, that means complete
this list .....

make sure you have all the post sp4 w2k patches

make sure DS is clean & healthy

make sure you are using the latest nwclient & patches
support.novell.com/filefinder

make sure you have the server updated to the latest patches & oplocks level1
& 2 are set correct

SLP is setup properly on the server, & distributed properly to workstations
via dhcp

DNS setup properly

that speed/duplex on *everything* is hardset, & hardset correctly

latest drivers for everything (nic/chipset/controller/etc)

check cables, make sure everything is cat5e certified, not using flat
cables/cat3/etc (ive seen it in a lot of places)

purge all volumes & turn off compression

make sure there is more than 10% free on EVERY volume

make sure bios/firmware to everything (server/raid
cards/switches/workstations/etc) up to date
