- Program: NETTEST.COM
- Purpose: Used in a DOS batch file to test if the Novell network
- shell (IPX & NETn) has been loaded.
- Version: 1.00 06-19-90
- Format: NETTEST
- Remarks: When run, NETTEST sets DOS's ERRORLEVEL to either
- 0 or 1 to indicate if the Novell network shell has been
- loaded. A value of 1 indicates the shell is present.
-
-
- Program: NETDRIVE.COM
- Purpose: Used in a DOS batch file to find the first Novell network
- drive that contains the directory \LOGIN, then switches
- to that drive and directory. Typically used in an
- environment with work stations that don't all use drive
- F: as the first network drive. This allows you to create
- one login batch file that can be used on all work
- stations.
- Version: 1.10 06-19-91 Version 1.1 fixes a problem that caused Netdrive
- to not look past drive P: for the first network
- drive when you were already logged in. It will
- now check through drive Z:.
- Format: NETDRIVE
-
-
- Example: The following is a listing of an example batch file
- that uses the NETTEST and NETDRIVE programs. In this
- example, NETTEST and NETDRIVE are stored in a directory
- call C:\NET along with the IPX and NETn files.
-
- Rem LAN.BAT
- ECHO OFF
- CLS
- ECHO Connecting to the Network...
- C:
- CD\NET
- NETTEST
- IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO Login
- IPX
- NET3
- NETTEST
- IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO Login
- CLS
- ECHO Error connecting to network!
- GOTO Exit
- :Login
- NETDRIVE
- LOGIN
- :Exit
-
-
- Note: Both NETTEST and NETDRIVE are very new programs and have
- had little testing. If you decide to use them YOU DO SO
- AT YOUR OWN RISK. If you find bugs in the programs, feel
- free to let me know. I can't make any promises, but I
- will try to correct any problems that I hear about.
