This file is for SUPERVISORS OF NOVELL NETWORKS. It was created because we
have found too many Novell networks where everyone logs in as the
Supervisor or the same person, i.e. Sales.
NETTALK will NOT work under these circumstances as EACH NETTALK user much
have their own different login name, i.e., Jane, John, Vicki, Tom, etc.
Otherwise, NETTALK does not know who to send the message too. That is, if
everyone logs in as supervisor, you would be sending to yourself.
To add a user to a Novell 3.11 Network, please
Login as Supervisor
From the DOS prompt type Syscon
From the Syscon menu select User Information
Press the INSERT button on your keyboard (do not type insert, the insert
button is generally located above the cursor buttons and to the right of
the ENTER button)
You will then see User Name
Type in the User Name you want to add, i.e., Fred
Press the ENTER button
You will be asked to Verify Creation of New Directory
Move Cursor to YES
Press the ENTER button
You have successfully added a user.
To quit, Press the ESC button on your keyboard a few times to quit SYSCON.
NOTE: This is a brief explanation of adding a user to a Novell Network, we
urge caution if you are unfamiliar with Novell and you should contact your
dealer.
Novell Rights
As the Novell LAN Manager, you need to give your users rights to the
INTERCOM directory where you have placed NetTalk. The reason is that each
person has their own Yellow Sticky Pad file and their own Call Log. If you
do not know how to give RIGHTS, you can start by typing RIGHTS from
wherever you have placed NetTalk. This will tell you what RIGHTS you have.
This will NOT tell you what RIGHTS other users have.
STOP, before you proceed if you are unfamiliar with Novell, we suggest you
call your dealer for specific advice regarding your individual Novell
network. Your dealer may have other ways to accomplish this or specific
recommendations.
In order to add RIGHTS to your Novell Network,
you login as SUPERVISOR and type SYSCON
Then Select - Group Information
Then Select - Group Names - Everyone
Then Select - Trustee Directory Assignments
Then hit the INSERT button
Type SYS:Intercom
Hit the Enter button
Then hit the INSERT button - Select Create
Hit the Enter button
The hit the INSERT button - Select Erase
Hit the Enter button
Then hit the INSERT button - Select Modify
Hit the Enter button
Then hit the INSERT button - Select Write
Hit the Enter button
Then hit the INSERT button - Select Access Control
Then hit the ESC button a number of times until you leave SYSCON and then
you are done.
NOTE: You should then restart or reboot your PCs.
Frankly, this doesn't take very long and will help you familiarize yourself
with Novell.
If you have any questions, please call YOUR DEALER.
