They are all designed for interactive/batch use and work with NetWare 2.15 through 2.2 and NetWare 3.xx. At time of this release, some testing is underway with NetWare 4.00 development code. These utilities have been designed to help ease the network administrator in his tasks of maintaining the network. There are at least 50 utilities documented in this printable text file. Most are written using Microsoft C 6.0 and NetWare C Interface for DOS. Also, included are some sample batch/login scripts that illustrate some uses for the utilities. Utilities are described in the following documentation along with the errorlevel codes. Also, using ? as the first parameter when executing a utility will generally display the syntax options allowed. If you have a utility that you would like to see, then please send a suggestion with your registration fee. If it is feasible to create it, then we will.

Page 7 of 70 NADDRESS NADDRESS Address To compare Node Address to this station with specified. NADDRESS Address /NODE To compare Node Address to this station with specified. NADDRESS Address /SEGMENT To compare Segment Address to this station with specified. Wildcard character ? can be used in place of an address digit, i.e.: NADDRESS 123? /SEGMENT will match anything with the address of 123?, as in 00001230, 00001231, ..., 0000123F This utility compares this workstation's Segment or Node Address to a specified value. The primary purpose of this utility is to provide a way for batch utilities to be executed depending upon the physical address of the workstation. For example, this could be used in cases where you want to run a specific program on your print server or mail server. Another use, could be when you need to verify that all workstations of a specific NIC manufacturer or on a specific segment need new drivers or that the administrator needs to be notified. Example: In a sample batch file: NADDRESS 864bf8 if errorlevel 1 send "Someone logged in on Joe's PC." to SUPERVISOR. Or, NADDRESS 0c5f07 /SEGMENT if errorlevel 1 goto VerifyFrameType Or, NADDRESS 608C???????? if not errorlevel 1 goto Skip3c505 rem Copy new 3C505.EXE to replace old IPX.COM ncmpdrvr 15 IRQ if errorlevel 1 copy f:\drivers\3c505\irq15\net.cfg c:\net if errorlevel 1 copy f:\drivers\3c505\irq3\net.cfg c:\net :skip3c505 Page 8 of 70 Returned errorlevels are: 9 - drivers not loaded or other error. 1 - it matches this workstation. 0 - no match found. Hint: Workstation Address is displayed when you do a USERLIST /A Page 9 of 70 NALLCARD NALLCARD This utility will poll all attached workstations for their diagnostic packets. It will display the three workstations with the most errors and it will create a ASCII data file that has the statistics from all polled workstations. The ASCII data file can be imported by a spreadsheet program. Description of diagnostic codes are listed in Table A. Returned errorlevels are: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - User Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current working subdirectory. 4 - Unable to initialize IPX. 2 - Unable to open (output) report file. 0 - Normal Exit. Page 10 of 70 NCARD NCARD [UserName or Connection Number] NCARD get stats of current workstation. NCARD BRENDA get stats at BRENDA's station, or NCARD 34 get stats at Connection # 34. (specify the Connection # if the user has not yet logged into the server.) This utility will display the results from the diagnostic statistics of the specified workstation. It will only display error statistics that are not equal to zero. Description of diagnostic codes are listed in Appendix A. Returned errorlevels are: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - User not be logged in. 7 - Specified connection is not active. 6 - Unable to access info on specified connection. 0 - Normal Exit. Page 11 of 70 NCHGOWN ** Supervisor equivalence needed to run this utility! ** NCHGOWN Drive:\Subdirectory OldOwnerName NewOwnerName This utility will display/change the directory/file ownership of the current working directory and all of its subdirectories. Valid owner names consist of Usernames, Groupnames and Servernames. If parameters are not supplied, it will ask for: OLD OWNER NAME to search for, or NA for deleted owners, or ALL for all owners found in the subdirectories NEW OWNER NAME what will be tagged onto the files Sample usages: Files owned by deleted owners may be "re- owned" by valid users; correctly document disk space usage by ownership; overcome accounting limitation dealing with deleted users; used with NRPTOWN can produce an accurate disk space consumption report for administration or documentation purposes. Example: NCHGOWN \APPS\ACAD11 ALL AUTOCAD will change the ownership of all files/directories at \APP\ACAD11 and all its subdirectories to the group owner AUTOCAD. Returned errorlevels are: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - User Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current work subdirectory. 6 - Must be supervisor or equivalent. 5 - Operating error. 4 - Unable to access specified subdirectory / not a server subdirectory. 3 - Unable to access subdirectory. 0 - Normal Exit. Page 12 of 70 NCHKCSYS NCHKCSYS MinimumFiles MinimumBuffers MinimumEnvironment This utility will read the workstation's (C:\CONFIG.SYS) file and check if the file has the minimum count of items that you specify above. If COMMAND.COM does not exist on Drive C:, it will then attempt to read CONFIG.SYS on Drive A: Sample usage: Modifying all workstations so that they will reserve more environment space (needed if your users have a lot of SET and/or PATH parameters); ensure that all workstations in the field have the needed minimum conditions to operate safely on the network; to overrule an individual "fooling" with his workstation. Returned errorlevels are: 9 - Syntax error. 7 - Error reading CONFIG.SYS 6 - Error writing CONFIG.SYS 5 - Wrote new CONFIG.SYS 4 - Files number increased. 3 - Buffers number increased. 2 - Environment space number increased. 0 - No changes made to CONFIG.SYS Page 13 of 70 NCHKMODM NCHKMODM [M] This utility will check for modems or mice on serial ports. If no parameters are specified, modems will be checked for. If the M parameter is specified, a mouse will be checked for. Note: This utility can find serial mice but not bus mice if the mouse driver is not loaded. Returned errorlevels are: 1 - Modem or mouse device found 0 - Device not found Page 14 of 70 NCHKRPRN NCHKRPRN PrintServerName ALL To display status of all printers on specified Print Server. NCHKRPRN PrintServerName Printer# To display status of specified printer and specified Print Server. NCHKRPRN CHECK Read the (\PUBLIC\NCHKRPRN.LST) file listing to check if the current workstation should be running RPRINTER. If it is, then report the status of the specified RPRINTER (Not Connected, Change Paper, Ready...). If a Print JobName exists in the \NCHKRPRN.LST file for the current station, then start a CAPTURE using the specified Print JobName. This utility will report the current status of the specified printer on the specified print server. Also, it can warn the user that his printer needs attention, and return an errorlevel based upon the printer status. This errorlevel will enable the administrator to modify the flow on the batch file. The following example will check to see if the current workstation should be running RPRINTER. If it should, then check the status. If RPRINTER is NOT CONNECTED (level: 2), then PAUSE the screen so that the end user can see the message. Otherwise, if it is not that error, then skip to the rest of the batch file. NCHKRPRN CHECK IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO NOPROB IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO NOPROB rem Not Connected PAUSE :NOPROB View the file NCHKRPRN.LST for the correct data format of workstation RPRINTER information. Sample usages: when setup it will warn the end user that he needs to take action (Turn ON Printer, Reboot...) for the printer that is directly attached to his station, while running with RPRINTER. Page 15 of 70 NCMPDATE NCMPDATE Drive:\Subdirectory\FileName MM/DD/YY This utility will compare the specified date with the specified file's modification date. This is useful when used in batch files to control the updating of files based on their last date of modification. Example: NCMPDATE C:\NET\IPX.COM 02/01/91 Returned errorlevels: 4 or greater if there was a fatal error or other... 3 - specified file could not be accessed 2 - if file's date is later than the specified date 1 - if file's date is equal to the specified date 0 - if file's date is sooner than the specified date Page 16 of 70 NCMPDRVR NCMPDRVR IPXVersion IPX Compare the currently loaded drivers with specified parameters. This utility will read information from the currently loaded workstation shells, and depending on the specified command (and result), will return a errorlevel. This errorlevel can be used in batch files for executing update routines, or just notifying the network administrator when the workstation is running a specified driver. To compare the IPX driver version currently in memory. syntax: NCMPDRVR example: NCMPDRVR 3.10 IPX Returned errorlevels: 2 or greater if there was a fatal error or could not check version 1 - if currently loaded IPX >= specified IPX version 0 - if currently loaded IPX < specified IPX version To compare the IRQ number currently in memory. syntax: NCMPDRVR IRQAddress IRQ example: NCMPDRVR 15 IRQ Returned errorlevels: 2 or greater if there was a fatal error or could not check version 1 - if loaded IPX uses the specified IRQ address 0 - if loaded IPX does not use the specified IRQ address To compare the Network shell currently in memory. syntax: NCMPDRVR ShellVersion NETX example: NCMPDRVR 3.22 NETX Page 17 of 70 Returned errorlevels: 2 or greater if there was a fatal error or could not check version 1 - if currently loaded shell >= specified shell version 0 - if currently loaded shell < specified shell version Page 18 of 70 NCOPYIPX NCOPYIPX WorkStationDrive:\Path\IPX.COM This utility will read the workstation's IPX.COM version and configuration information. It will match this against the master on the server, and if the workstation doesn't match, it will copy IPX.COM from the server to the workstation. New on Sept. 19, 1991: This utility will read NCOPYIPX.LST in the current working subdirectory. This list file will contain workstation LAN option names, and the path name that the drivers will be found for the specified driver type. So, hence, you CAN separate drivers that are made by the same manufacturer and/or different driver types made for the same card type. Read NCOPYIPX.LST for syntax of readable text list file. This utility can run as a standalone without the workstation's network drivers loaded.(if needed) Sample usage: (Easily!) upgrade workstations to different IPX versions (IPX.COM). The current working subdirectory (that this program is called from) must have a structure that is in a PathName \ Interrupt# \ I/O Base \ IPX.COM order. For example: G_ETHERN\IRQ3 G_ETHERN\IRQ3\II G_ETHERN\IRQ5\220h G_ETHERN\IRQ5\240h G_ETHERN\IRQ15\240h G_ETHERN\IRQ15\240h\II NETWORTH\IRQ12\240h NETWORTH\IRQ15\240h NETWORTH\IRQ15\240h\II Ethernet II frame IPX files are in II subdirectory. This utility can read the difference between a normal 802.3 and an Ethernet II type frame. The Ethernet_II framed IPX.COM but be located in the II subdirectory of the interrupt or the IOBase subdirectory. If the driver (IPX.COM) does not exist in the I/O Address subdirectory, then it will look in the Interrupt Page 19 of 70 subdirectory. (Thus, it will get a NetWorth Irq=15 IOBase=340h 's IPX.COM from the NETWORTH\IRQ15 subdirectory if NETWORTH\IRQ15\340h does not exist.) This utility has been tested on drivers by: 3-COM Thin Wire NICs Networth 10BaseT NICs Gateway Thin Wire NICs Western Digital Thin Wire NICs Xircom 10BaseT Adapters One of the wonderful things about the 16 bit cards is that you can set the cards for higher interrupts than 10 to reduce the possibilities of conflict. Sample setup: in a batch file is: CD F:\SUPPORT\DRIVERS change to driver subdirectory NCOPYIPX C:\NET\IPX.COM execute this utility with it specifying that the workstation drivers are in C:\NET subdirectory. The program will first read the manufacturer, IRQ, and I/O Base from the IPX driver. It will display a message similar to: Workstation Lan Option: Networth ... Path: Networth Irq: IRQ15 Base: 340h the program will first look in the subdirectory NETWORTH\IRQ15\340H for the IPX.COM file, if it doesn't find it here then it go to the NETWORTH\IRQ15 subdirectory. These subdirectories (NETWORTH\IRQ15, ...) must be found under the current subdirectory (i.e. F:\SUPPORT\DRIVERS in this example) or else a message will be returned that the driver was not found. Page 20 of 70 Returned errorlevels: 9 - Incorrect or short command line parameter 8 - Workstation IPX.COM not found 7 - Could not read workstation's temporary IPX 6 - Server IPX.COM not found 5 - Could not write workstation IPX.COM 4 - Could not read server IPX.COM 3 - Error writing new IPX.COM file 1 - Workstation IPX.COM has been updated 0 - Date/Time stamp same between Server and Workstation Page 21 of 70 NCOPYNEW NCOPYNEW [!]Drive:\Path\SourceFileName Drive:\Path\DestFileName Supports: Single FileName to Same Single FileName ie: NCOPYNEW I:NET.CFG C:NET.CFG Single FileName to Different Single FileName ie: NCOPYNEW I:3C505.CFG C:SHELL.CFG Wildcards(*,?) to Destination DirectoryName ie: NCOPYNEW I:3C505.* C:\NET This utility will copy contents of SourceFileName to DestFileName, if DestFileName is older than SourceFileName or if DestFileName does not exist. If a ! mark is immediately before the source filename prompt, then the "copy" operation will occur if the the source and destination files are NOT date/time stamped IDENTICALLY. This utility is small enough that it may be called (shelled to ) by another program. Sample usages: Distribute newer versions of software that is used on the workstation; distribute memos, files, and other mass distribution. Examples: NCOPYNEW F:\APPS\MASTER\BATCH\PHONE.TXT C:\WORD Copies PHONE.TXT if the source copy is newer than the destination. NCOPYNEW !F:\APPS\MASTER\BATCH\PHONE.TXT C:\WORD Copies PHONE.TXT, if the source copy is different than destination. NCOPYNEW F:\APPS\MASTER\BATCH\FILES.* C:\WORD Copies any files matching FILES.* to the subdirectory C:\WORD, if the file is newer than those matching in the destination sub. Note! Remember C:AUTOEXEC.BAT is not the same as C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT Page 22 of 70 Returned errorlevels: 9 - Invalid syntax 8 - Could not find the source file 7 - Error occurred while accessing destination file 6 - Error occurred while writing to destination file 1 - Source filename copied over destination filename 0 - Date/Time stamp same Page 23 of 70 NCOPYSCR NCOPYSCR Drive:\Path\ScriptFile This utility is similar to NCOPYNEW except that it reads a script file instead of the prompt line. A sample script file is provided. See the file ALLUSERS.SCR as an example script file. If the symbol ! is used before the source path\filename in the script file, then the utility will copy the file to the destination if the date/time stamp is not the same. If no beginning symbol is used, then the normal "copy if outdated" rule applies. Sample usages: Distribute newer versions of software that is used on the workstation; distribute memos, files, and other mass distribution. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Unable to find script file. 6 - Error writing destination file. 0 - Normal exit. Page 24 of 70 NCPY2SUB NCPY2SUB Drive:\Path\FileName This utility will copy FileName to all existing subdirectories of the current default subdirectory. Example: When the current subdirectory is \GRP\DOC, NCPY2SUB \USR\SMITH\BLANKMEM.DOC will have the result that BLANKMEM.DOC will be copied to all subdirectories of \GRP\DOC, such as \GRP\DOC\AL, \GRP\DOC\BRENDA, \GRP\DOC\CARL,.... Sample usages: distribution of configuration/document files to individual subdirectories that are below current working subdirectory. Note: This utility in the past was very useful for it was a quick way to copy the PRINTCON.DAT (Print Job Configuration file) to all users but now the utility NMANPCON does a much better job of this. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Unable to find specified file. 6 - Error writing destination file. 0 - Normal exit. Page 25 of 70 NDATEDIR NDATEDIR Drive:\Subdirectory This utility will set all files in the current working subdirectory (or specified in the command line) to the current Date/Time stamp. Sample usages: Marking files that you want to always to be archived by the backup software; mark document subdirectories with all the same date/time stamp. (Especially useful for those important databases that you want to ensure that they are completely backed up even during incremental backup sessions) Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Error accessing home subdirectory. 7 - Error accessing specified subdirectory. 0 - Normal exit. Page 26 of 70 NDELFILE NDELFILE Drive:\Path FileMask This utility will delete all files matching the specified FileMask starting at the specified Drive:Path subdirectory and all its nested subdirectories. The FileMask may contain wildcard (?,*) characters. This utility can be used in a batchfile or interactively. If interactive, then typing NDELFILE, alone will display a prompt for the desired subdirectory structure and the specified filemask(filename). If batch, then you will need to type the specified Drive:\Path and FileMask in the command line when executing NDELFILE. Warning! This utility will not verify if the file should or should not be deleted, it will simply do what you told it! Sample usages: Delete those .BAK and other backup files that are left by user programs to save diskspace; run this process after doing a full backup of the server; run this process if a maintenance robot (ei. NDISK.EXE) finds that diskspace is very low. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 7 - Unable to find specified subdirectory. 6 - Encountered error when changing subdirectories 1 - Found no files to delete. 0 - Normal exit. Page 27 of 70 NDELPRNJ NDELPRNJ QueueName UserName This utility will delete all Print Jobs created by UserName. The user executing this utility must have sufficient rights to delete print jobs. If only the QueueName is specified, then all Print Jobs that the user has security rights can be deleted for the specified queue. If the QueueName and UserName is specified, then all Print Jobs for the specified Queue and UserName are deleted. Sample usages: Allow users delete their active print jobs by selecting an option in your menuing system; Delete all hung (out of paper, printer offLine, ...) print jobs so that the backup machine (usually after midnight) may backup the file server without waiting forever on the queue files to close (Thus, also backing up the queue directory structures). Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to find specified queue. 6 - Unable to find specified username. 5 - Insufficent queue rights. 4 - Unable to access print job list. 2 - Specified queue is empty. 1 - Deleted available print jobs. 0 - Normal exit. Page 28 of 70 NDISK NDISK Drive: This utility will display the total capacity and available disk space of specified drive. The available disk space will also be returned as an errorlevel in increments of 1 megabyte (1024 * 1024 bytes). The maximum errorlevel returned is 255. Sample usages: help alert the administrator to low disk space available; placed in a batch file will automatically delete redundant files if disk space is low. Returned errorlevels: XXX - Number of megabytes of free space on drive. Page 29 of 70 NDOSVER NDOSVER This utility will return the major dos version as a errorlevel exit code. This is useful for batch files that need to call specific programs based on the DOS version. Sample Use: Load the correct version of NETx.COM, check for old versionf of DOS. Returned errorlevels: 5 - DOS 5 or later found 4 - DOS 4 or later found 3 - DOS 3 or later found 2 - DOS 2 or later found Page 30 of 70 NEMSMEM NEMSMEM This program will return the amount of Expanded Memory (EMS) available. It will return the amount 10K increments as an Errorlevel. For example, if NEMSMEM found 2304K available, then it will return with an errorlevel of 230. The maximum errorlevel that can be returned is 255. Sample usages: Insert before a application call in a batch file, if there isn't enough memory available, goto the appropriate message in the batch file. Returned errorlevels: XXX - Number of megabytes of free EMS memory. Page 31 of 70 NEQUA NEQUA Objectname This utility will return an errorlevel of 0 if the current user is a security equivalent of specified object, errorlevel 1 if it is not equivalent. Sample usage: batch files can be tuned to specific types of users. Sample: NEQUA SUPERVISOR IF ERRORLEVEL 1 THEN GOTO (normal user) super-batch-stuff Returned errorlevels: 1 - User is not security equivalent 0 - User is security equivalent Page 32 of 70 NEXPIRE NEXPIRE [username] Returns number of days before password expiration. If username is specified, the number of days remaining for that user's password will be returned, else the current user will be used for the return. Returned errorlevels: xxx - Number of days before password expiration. Page 33 of 70 NGETTIME NGETTIME This utility will display the current date / time on all attached servers. This will help you decide if you need to run NSETTIME. Returned errorlevels: 1 - User must be logged in. 0 - Normal exit. Page 34 of 70 NGROUP NGROUP GroupName This utility will return an errorlevel of 0, if the current user is a member of specified GroupName. Errorlevel 1, if it is not a member. Sample usage: batch files can be tuned to specific types of users. Sample: NGROUP BTRIEVE IF ERRORLEVEL 1 THEN GOTO (normal user) load Brequest other Btrieve specifics etc... Sample: NGROUP ANTIVIRUS IF ERRORLEVEL 1 THEN GOTO (skip this section) run antivirus Returned errorlevels: 1 - User is not a member of group 0 - User is a member of group Page 35 of 70 NINVENT NINVENT [Filename] Collect and display configuration on this workstation. NINVENT willdisplay info on screen only, NINVENT Filename will append info to the specified file If appended to a specified file, the information will be in ASCII comma-delimited format which can be read easily into a spreadsheet program. Sample output: Network User: DARWIN Network Address: 6:000061E5B4FC IPX Version: 3.10 Shell Version: 3.26 Rev A LanCard Name: G/Ether 16 LanCard Setting: IRQ B Port 02A0 Conv Memory Size: 518 K EMS Memory Size: 2000 K XMS Memory Size: 1904 K EXT Memory Size: 0 K Drive C Available: 17 M Returned errorlevels: 9 - Help 8 - Not logged in / unable to do query user 6 - Unable to do diagnostics 1 - Unable to append to specified file 0 - Successful Page 36 of 70 NLIST NLIST [/P] /P is optional command, it will pause the screen every 25 lines so that you may 'page' thru the output text. The purpose of this utility so that you can get an overview of the status of the file servers on your network. It will display the names, NetWare version, and network address of all servers. It will also give a summary of the connections in use for those servers that you are logged in. This very useful if you have any Hewlett Packard Network Interface cards or Castelle Print Server equipment becuase it will display connections that have defined in PCONSOLE but are not online. For example, when the utility executes, it sees that you have defined four print servers on a (logged on) file server. It will check to see if those four print servers are attached to the file server, if they are not, it will display the print server's name on the screen. Also, if you configure special access users (like Supervisor, MHS, FAX, Super, Tape...), with a FullName that starts with a - (minus sign), then NLIST will display these user names if they are logged in. (This is handy to check and see if your special accounts are currently operational.) Returned errorlevels: 9 - Network driver not loaded or too old. 2 - Could not attach to a file server. 1 - One or more print servers are not attached. 0 - Success/normal exit Page 37 of 70 NLOGADDR NLOGADDR Drive:Path\FileName [/N] /N is optional command that will ask the user to type in a 30 character description of this workstation. This utility will get physical address of the workstation and insert this information into the database specified by FileName. Sample usages: Track login usage at the workstation level; trace program usage by physical station; trace previous logins at work station; track usage of work stations; track workstation conditions, allows a network administrator a quick way to find who had been accessing a program by a specific workstation. Example placed in a batch file: NDISK C: IF ERRORLEVEL 2 NLOGADDR F:\WARNINGS\LOWDISK.LST IF C:\WP\WP.EXE NLOGADDR F:\INVENT\WPUSER.TXT The database file is in a fixed format (CR/LF) text file, so the administrator can do searches/lookup using any text editor. DataFile Layout: Field Name Length Physical Address 14 Notes 32 Last Login Date 9 Last Login Time 6 Last Login Name 16 Previous Login Date 9 Previous Login Time 6 Previous Login Name 16 2nd Previous Login Date 9 2nd Previous Login Time 6 2nd Previous Login Name 16 Blank Space (20h) 1 Carriage Return (0Dh) 1 Line Feed (0Ah) 1 ==== Total 140 Page 38 of 70 Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Could not read/write to data file 7 - Could not get workstation physical address 2 - Added login time to existing record 1 - Added record for this physical address Page 39 of 70 NLOGEVT NLOGEVT Command Drive:\Path\Datafile Command choices: B Begin Date/Time Event for workstation (log to specified data file) E End Date/Time Event for current workstation (log to specified data file) R Create user (summary and sorted) usage report for specified data file. This utility will track usage of events. These events could range anywhere from keeping track of user login time to application utilization. The data will be kept in the specified data file (random-access fixed-field text file). This raw file can be viewed or printed by the network administrator. For example, you may want to keep track of who and how often end users will execute a specific application. In this case you would begin the event (i.e., NLOGEVT B APP1) before you execute the application. Then, in your batch file, you would end the event (i.e., NLOGEVT E APP1) after you have finished the application. Later, when you view (or do a report) on the specified log file (NLOGEVT R APP1), you would see some usage stats on the user, such as: Address Physical Address that the enduser was at when the application was run. LoginName LoginName of the user that accessed the specified event. StartDate Start date of the event for the displayed loginname and station. StartTime Start time of the event for the displayed loginname and station. EndDate End date of the event for the displayed loginname and station. EndTime End time of the event for the displayed loginname and station. Page 40 of 70 Abends Number of times that the enduser rebooted or otherwise did not end event (NLOG E APPNAME) after running the application. Or, in other words, the number of times that the utility was told to begin an event that already had started. Event Count Number of times that an event occurred, or the number of times that an enduser had accessed the specified event. Event Amount Total number of hours that the specified event has accumulated. Page 41 of 70 NLOGMSG NLOGMSG Drive:Pathname\FileName MessageString [/P] [/S] This utility is normally used in batch files, to record(log) an event or error that has taken place. The user provides a file name and a message. The 'message' will be appended to the end of the log file named, along with the Login name, date, and time of the event. If the optional /P is specified, the physical node address of the station will be added to the line. If the optional /S is specified, the server name will be added to the data file listing as well. Example contents: (depending on switches specified) DARWIN 02/13/92 15:30 Exited to DOS Prompt KEVIN 02/13/92 16:00 Found outdated NETX The structure of the appended record is: LoginName 15 char File server name 13 char [optional!] Network node address 13 char [optional!] Date 9 char Time 9 char Message text 32 char Note: The message string may have quotes around the text. Page 42 of 70 NMANPCON NMANPCON [UserName or GroupName] NMANPCON BRENDA Create new printer configuration file for user BRENDA. NMANPCON EVERYONE Create a new printer configuration file for all users that are a member of group EVERYONE. This utility will first copy the Supervisor's PRINTCON.DAT to specified users, and then for each user, it will remove job configurations that the individual user does not have sufficient security to access, i.e., not a member of queue user So, if you are using this with the utility NSELPRNJ, you never have to explain about printer job names that the users don't have access to, because they simply aren't displayed! Also, this will enable you to not worry about going through the PRINTCON routine for all your users whenever a new jobname, printer, or other changes are required. Now, just set up the supervisor's PRINTCON configuration the way you like it, and then run this utility. All users will then have a correct printcon file. You would need to only run this utility if: Modified the supervisor's PRINTCON.DAT file and want it to effect other users. If it only effects a specific group, do: NMANPCON GroupName If it effects everyone, then do: NMANPCON EVERYONE Added a new user, and so you want to create the user's PRINTCON.DAT configuration from the master copy. NMANPCON NewUserName and that's it! Sample usages: Make maintaining PRINTCON.DAT files a breeze because you only have to maintain on master copy; used in conjunction with NSELPRNJ makes an easier to use and maintain printer system; run this utility after creating new users will then result in a PRINTCON.DAT file correctly configured for those users. Page 43 of 70 Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Unable to find specified user or group. 5 - Unable to access server's MAIL subdirectory. 4 - Unable to access Supervisor's PRINTCON.DAT file. 3 - Error in Supervisor's PRINTCON.DAT file structure. 0 - Normal exit. Page 44 of 70 NMEM NMEM This small utility will report amount of conventional memory available to programs. It will return an errorlevel by 10K increments. For example, if NMEM detects that 250K is available then it will return an errorlevel of 25. Sample usages: Insert before a application call in a batch file, and if there isn't enough memory available, then goto the appropriate message in the batch file. Returned errorlevels: XXX - (Number of kilobytes of free conv. memory) / 10 Page 45 of 70 NMHS2TXT NMHS2TXT.EXE must be renamed to OUTPOST.EXE when it is copied to the defined gateway's PUBLIC subdirectory. MHS will execute this utility when it sends Email to the Gateway's OUT sub,and convert the email message to a (word wrapped) text file called OUTPOST.TXT in \MHS\MAIL\GATES\(GatewayName)\OUT subdirectory. Then the utility will shell and execute the NMHS2TXT.BAT file that you have created in the \MHS\MAIL\GATES\(GatewayName)\PUBLIC subdirectory. Sample usage: Useful in multiple MHS locations when automatically transfering text files on a routine basis. For example: An MHS location creates a daily company report and is emailed to all member MHS sites. At the receiving site, the mail message will be converted to a text file and placed in a common subdirectory for all to access. (This is good for several reasons: 1 - can be done automatically at any frequency or time of day, 2 - reduces hard disk space needed to store one document instead of multiple email messages....) To install: Create a new gateway in MHS's Directory Manager section. Note: Do not create a Gateway command. Add the gateway name to 'User Routes' in MHS's Directory Manager. COPY NMHS2TXT.EXE to \mhs\mail\gates\(GatewayName)\public\OUTPOST.EXE Note: Yes, it should be called OUTPOST.EXE in this subdirectory. Create a NMHS2TXT.BAT in \MHS\MAIL\GATES\(GatewayName)\PUBLIC This batch could copy the file to the desired location or other things. Note: FileName NMHS2TXT.EXE must not exist in this same PUBLIC sub. A sample can be found in the SAMPLES.LZH file. Page 46 of 70 Now, whenever you send a message to GateWayName @ GateWayName, the utility will make it a text file and manipulate it. Page 47 of 70 NOPNFILE Netware 286 environment: Full functionality Netware 386 environment: NOPNFILE can only list open files by Username and ConnectionNumber NOPNFILE username to report all openfiles at a user connection NOPNFILE connection number to report all openfiles at specified connection NOPNFILE to scan current subdirectory for open files Sample usage: NOPNFILE BRENDA get stats at BRENDA's station, NOPNFILE 34 get stats at Connection # 34, NOPNFILE will search the current directory for any open files. This utility will display the files that are open and current access levels. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Must have console operator rights. 6 - Specified user not found. 5 - Specified user is not logged in. 1 - Opened files found. 0 - No open files found. Page 48 of 70 NQUOTES NQUOTES Drive:\Path\Filename.ext This will display a random message (based on system date and time) from quote file, NQUOTES.TXT. This may be used to provide a "though for the day" type login messages. The Filename is in simple text file format: Each quote starts at the beginning of the line, use a blank space at the beginning of the line to continue a quote. Page 49 of 70 NRPTBIND NRPTBIND Objectname [Switch] If Objectname is a User, then a User Report is created, switch parameter is ignored. i.e., NRPTBIND BONNIE for a User Report on user BONNIE If Objectname is a Group, then the below choices are allowed for the switch: D Create a comma ASCII file on user info M Create MHSREMOTE.BAT & MHSLOCAL.BAT files N Create report for specified group S Display status on all members of group Y Create report for all members of group If Objectname is a Queue, then a Queue Report is created, switch is ignored. i.e., NRPTBIND HP-QUEUE for a queue report on queuename HP-QUEUE. If Objectname is a PrintServer, then a PrintServer Report is created, switch parameter is ignored. i.e., NRPTBIND TRITON-P for a PrintServer Report about PrintServer named TRITON- P This utility will create a report for individual users, groups, print queues, and print servers depending on the specified command. If it is a User Report, then it will contain Account Information, Direct Trustee Assignments, Group Members, Security Equivalences, and Queue Membership. If it is a Group Report, then it will only contain Direct Trustee Assignments, Group Members and Queue Membership. The D option is to create a comma-delimited ASCII file on user login and security information of the specified users. The file can be imported into Lotus 123 or other spreadsheet packages. The M option is to create a MHSREMOTE.BAT and MHSLOCAL.BAT file that you can run on your local MHS host and other MHS hosts to create an accurate routing table for your MHS sites. Page 50 of 70 For example, currently if you create a Netware user, you would need to manually enter the user as a 'User at this Host' on your local MHS system, and add them to 'Users Routes' on your other MHS hosts. Well, now, you can use the above batch files that will use MHS's own utility (MHSUSER) to maintain accurate routing information for your MHS hosts. MHSLOCAL.BAT is ran on the same MHS host server that you ran the NRPTBIND utility on, for it creates an accurate 'Users at this Host' routing table for MHS. MHSREMOTE.BAT is ran on other MHS host servers than you ran the NRPTBIND utility on, for it creates an accurate 'User Routes' routing info for MHS. The S option is to display a 'quick' status of 'important' login and security information of the specified users. If it is a Queue Report, then it will contain a Queue Subdirectory, Queue Servers, Queue Operators and Queue Users. If it is a PrintServer Report, then it will contain a list of the PrintServer's operators and users. Configurations for all configured printers, with its defined queue and notify settings. Note: You must a supervisor equivalent to run this report, or else it will only let you run a report on yourself. Sample usages: Document newly created users/groups/queues, check status on user access, document your LAN, avoid the trouble of needing to print-screen your settings, import your user configuration into spreadsheets/databases for comparison and storage. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 5 - Unable to find specified user/group. 2 - Error writing report file. 0 - Normal exit. Page 51 of 70 NRPTCONN ** Netware 2.x only! ** NTRPTCONN This utility will display the ten workstations with the greatest amount of total packet requests, kilobytes read, and kilobytes written. (one kilobytes = 1024 bytes). A spreadsheet importable data file will be written with all workstation information. Then, sampling will be taken every ten seconds, with the top five workstations displayed. Press any key to exit utility. User must have Console Operator rights. Usages: Find the workstation(s) that is/are hogging down server resources. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Must be a console operator. 5 - Error writing report file. 4 - Cannot use with Netware 386. 0 - Normal exit. Page 52 of 70 NRPTEQUA ** Supervisor-equivalency needed to run this utility! ** NRPTEQUA This will create a printable report text file that will list all users in alphabetical order that have security equivalences to any and all other users. The report file will be names servername.EQU, where servername is replaced by the name of your file server. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Must be supervisor-equivalent. 5 - Error writing report file. 0 - Normal exit. Page 53 of 70 NRPTMHS NRPTMHS This utility will create a quick report text file on the settings of the MHS NETDIR.TAB file. The configuration info will be sent to a file called MHSHostname.MHS, where MHSHostname is replaced by the name of your MHS host. This info will include basic host configuration, and a sorted list of all local and remote users defined at this host. Also, a REMOTE.REM file will be created that has a file format matching a RightHandMan compatible REMOTE.REM file. This is to aid the adminsitrator maintain a list of 'Remote User's for all 'remote' locations that call a central mail hub. Note: RightHandMan compatibles currently known are Futurus Team and LANAces OfficeLogic. Page 54 of 70 NRPTMHSU NRPTMHSU Drive:\SubDirectory Drive:\Subdirectory would most likely be F:\MHS\MAIL\USERS or a similar path that points to MHS's mail user subdirectories. This utility was created so that the network administrator can keep track of message traffic and disk space consumption of MHS mail messages. Especially, since a message can take 4K bytes (or more!) of disk space, it doesn't take many to result in a disk space full message on smaller volumes. Sample usage is: NRPTMHSU H:\MHS\MAIL\USERS Output will consist of: Sent Yesterday Files that have been created in the user's MHS mail directory on the previous date of this utility execution. This utility will also count deleted (but still salvagable files) that existed in this directory. Hence, the count may be below actual value. Sent Today Files that have been created in the user's MHS mail directory on the same date of this utility execution. This utility will also count deleted (but still salvagable files) that existed in this directory. Active Msgs Files that are in the user's MHS mail subdirectory. Filed Msgs Files that are in subdirectories further down the tree than the user's MHS mail subdirectory. (For example, additional storage mailboxs created (i.e., Futuris RightHandMan) would be counted.) Parcel Files Count of files that are located in the user's MHS parcel (IPARCEL) subdirectory. Deleted files are not counted. Page 55 of 70 DiskSpace K Diskspace consumed in Kilobytes of all counted message and parcel files. Page 56 of 70 NRPTPCON NRPTPCON Objectname If Objectname is a User, then create a report on PRINTCON settings of the specified user, if Objectname is a group, then create a report on all users that are a member of specified group. i.e. NRPTPCON Brenda create a report on Brenda, NRPTPCON MIS create a report for every user in the group MIS. This utility will read the specified User's PRINTCON.DAT and create a printable text file of all printer configuration parameters. Sample usages: Document a user's printer configuration setting; find dissimilar settings among users or groups. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Specified user/group does not exist. 5 - Unable to access \MAIL subdirectory. 4 - User's PRINTCON.DAT file structure is corrupt. 2 - Error writing report file. 0 - Normal exit. Page 57 of 70 NRPTSCRP NRPTSCRP Objectname If Objectname is a user, then create a report on the specified user's login script file, if Objectname is a group, then create a report on all users that are a member of specified group. If Objectname is SYSTEM, then create a report on the current server's system login script, and the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. (Current user must be supervisor- equivalent.) The report file will be file.SCR, with the Objectname replacing file. Examples: NRPTSCRP Brenda create a report on Brenda's personal login script. NRPTSCRP MIS create a login report for every user in the group called MIS. NRPTSCRP SYSTEM create a system report that will document the system login script and also the server's autoexec.ncf batch file. This utility will help you document the system and personal login scripts for your server. Sample usages: documenting your LAN..

Page 60 of 70 NSELPRNJ NSELPRNJ [SET] Allows the user to interactively select print jobs to be assigned to each of the printer ports, ask to activate, and ask to save to a personal routing 'database' file. NSELPRNJ SET will read the enduser's personal routing 'database' file, and activate those print jobname settings. Setup instructions: Add the 'Default Printer Routing' as a menu item in your standard user menu, have it execute NSELPRNJ. Add NSELPRNJ SET to your system login script. Inform users that they can setup their default printer routing by choosing this utility in your menu program. (Also, remind them that they can change these options at anytime.) Installation complete. From now on, when a user logs into the file server, his choosen printer routings are automatically activated. Sample usages: administrator no longer has to maintain a personal login script or other manual settings for the enduser; with this, if the enduser is smart enough to pick from a menu, then he can maintain his own printer routing needs! Frees administrator from maintaining the users printer routing through personal login scripts. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Abnormal user identity. 5 - Insufficent rights or unable to find PRINTCON.DAT in current user's MAIL subdirectory. 4 - Users PRINTCON.DAT file is corrupt. 0 - Normal exit. Page 61 of 70 NSETTIME NSETTIME Note: You must be a Console Operator on the file server in order to change the date/time of the file servers. This utility will set all attached servers to the same date and time as the workstation running this utility.

Returned errorlevels: 8 - Must be logged in. 1 - Unable to set the date/time on all servers. 0 - Normal exit. Page 62 of 70 NSTRING NSTRING Searchtext Drive:\Pathname\Filename.Ext This utility will search thru the specified Filename searching to find the specified Searchtext, and if it finds it, the utility will return an ErrorLevel 1, else return an ErrorLevel 0. If the file is not found or on other fatal occurences, it will return an errorlevel above 1 depending on the error. Returned errorlevels: > 1 Other error 1 - Text found 0 - Text not found Page 63 of 70 NSUBOWN ** Supervisor-equivalency needed to run this utility! ** NSUBOWN Drive:\Pathname This utility will display/change the file ownership of all subdirectories below it using the name of the immediate subdirectories at execution. For instance: Currently at H:\USR, and when using DIR, it will display: ALVIN <Subdirectory> BETTY <Subdirectory> DENNIS <Subdirectory> MiscFile <some files...> Execute this utility by NSUBOWN [return] The utility check if ALVIN is a valid owner name, if it is then it will set ALVIN's subdirectory (and all further below) to the owner set to ALVIN. Then, it will check if BETTY is a valid owner name, if it is then it will set BETTY has being the owner of BETTY subdirectory (and all further below). It will do this to DENNIS also. But, if DENNIS does not exist as an Owner, then it will display Does Not Exist, and skip to the next subdirectory. Sample usages: If this is done to the personal subdirectories it will give a more accurate consumption of disk space when using the NRPTOWN utility; setting files to their correct owner(LoginName, Group, Server) will make them easier to administer. Returned errorlevels: 9 - Syntax error. 8 - Must be logged in. 7 - Unable to access current subdirectory. 6 - Must be a supervisor or equivalent. 5 - Unable to access specified subdirectory. 4 - Subdirectory must exist on server. 3 - Error accessing subdirectories. 0 - Normal exit.
