--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------ AN.EXE - Advanced Netware Utility V1.4x -------------
1.0 About AN
---------------------
AN makes Network handling and -documentation more efficient.
You can view all valid Bindery-Data in only one view.
Print out a single user or your whole network environment with
one command.
Some special functions support you to get the last out of Netware.
1.1 Technical
---------------------
AN uses the File Server-Bindery where all Objects and their Properties
are stored (Users, Queues, Servers, Accounts, X-Ref' Tables ...).
It enables you to do special things by manipulating properties you
normaly haven't access to.
It also gets the Login-Scrips related to the users Object-ID.
2.0 Getting started
----------------------
FIRST : Login to at least one File-Server with Supervisor-Privileges !
Start AN and choose OBJECTS from the main-menu.
Select the kind of object you want to get informed about.
If there are any objects of this type you will get a Pick-List, where you
can pick the entry you are interested in.
The information-screen (at the lower right) is updated as you are moving
through the list. It gives you all information known about the highlighted
object.
You can select an entry by moving through the list with the cursor or by
typing the name of the entry (char by char).
2.1 Printing
-----------------------
To print a single Object's data select one out of the Pick-List and press
Print-Key F9. To print all Objects of a type (Users, Groups) select the
Object-Type and press F9.
Select 'ALL' to print the whole environment of your server.
2.2 Select default server (Multiple Server Version only !)
---------------------------
If you have more than one fileserver you can switch between by picking
one out of the 'attached servers-list'. The actual server is shown in
the header.
If the desired server isn't attached choose 'ATTACH' and attach to it.
2.3 Reset accounts
-----------------------
If you are using accounting for statistical reason, here you can set all
accounts (User & Printserver) to zero.
ONLY use this function if you just started AN and logged into the desired
server before. Do not try this function after you used the
'Change Server'- Function ! This will make the Program crash !
2.4 SYSCON/PCONSOLE
-----------------------
You can use AN as Management-Tool. To edit the shown data it has the
ability to invoke SYSCON and PCONSOLE from the main-menu.
2.5 Copy Files -> User
-----------------------
This Function enables you to copy a file to several user's home directory.
Select this Function. You will get a File-Selector-Box of your current
directory. Choose the file you want to copy and press RETURN.
Mark the users you want the file copied to with SPACE (a SQRT will mark
the selected entry). Then press ENTER to start Copying or ESC to leave the
function.
2.6 Queue Activity
------------------------
This Utility shows printqueue-activity and -status of the choosen server.
3.0 Troubleshooting
-----------------------
Be sure to have IPX and NETx loaded on your Workstation.
IF ATTACH/NCOPY/SYSCON/PCONSOLE don't work, be sure to have enough memory
to start these programs as child-process. If you haven't space enough
try DOS 5.0 and QEMM386 6.0. (up to 620 kB free.)
As these functions search for the Netware program in SYS:PUBLIC be
sure to have the files(syscon.exe, pconsole.exe, attach.exe, ncopy.exe)
located there.
4.0 Limitations
-----------------------
- up to 999 Objects.
- only 32 groups shown a user could be in.
- only 128 group members shown.
If you are interested to extend the limitations please contact !
