Novell Confidential
Manual 99a38 July 17, 2001
 SERVER executes startup.ncf and autoexec.ncf, if they exist.
 To prevent the Novell
®
logo (server splash screen) from displaying, you
can load SERVER with the -nl (no logo) command option. Otherwise the
graphics screen displays for about 10 seconds while server components
are loading in the background.
HINT: To substitute a different image for the current logo screen, place a file called
NWLOGO.BMP (for machines using a 256-color palette) or NWLOGO16.BMP (for
machines using a 16-color palette) in the same directory as server.exe (must be in
.BMP format).
BIOS limitations on the size and resolutions of the image are 640x480 pixels. The
server will display the 256-color version, if possible; otherwise, the server will use
the 16-color image. If neither is found in the directory, the default logo screen is
displayed.
Additional Information
SET
Purpose
Use at the server console to view and configure operating system parameters.
HINT: You can also modify server parameter values from MONITOR’s Available
Options, and then Server Parameters or using NetWare Remote Manager’s, Set
Parameters link.
The default SET parameter values give maximum performance for most
systems. Server parameter values should seldom need to be modified.
Syntax
SET [parameter] = [value]
