Understanding Client Tools

Starting NetWare User Tools for MS Windows

The NetWare User Tools for MS Windows are found in the

NETWARE.DRV ﬁle. These tools are available in NetWare 3.12, NetWare

4, and NetWare Client Kits for DOS and MS Windows packages.

This version of the NETWARE.DRV (3.01 or later) is compatible only with

the NetWare DOS Requester. For MS Windows support of NetWare Shell

ﬁles, such as NETX, use version 2.02 of the NETWARE.DRV.
