Logging In to the Network
IMPORTANT: We recommend that users do not use the command line LOGIN
utility.
There are several ways to initiate a Novell Client Login once users have
already logged in to NetWare or to the local workstation:
Right-click the red N icon in the System Tray and then click NetWare
Login.
Right-click Network Neighborhood and then click NetWare Login.
Click Start > Programs > Novell (Common) > Novell Login.
In Network Neighborhood, double-click the tree or server to log in to; the
Novell Login will load automatically.
In Network Neighborhood, right-click on the desired tree or server and
then click either Authenticate or Login.
Run LOGINWIN32.EXE from the DOS command prompt.
Logging Out of the Network
To log in to new NetWare services while logging out of other servers or
clearing the current connections, use the NetWare Client Login and check the
Clear Current Connections check box.
If you want to log out of both the Windows NT/2000 workstation and
NetWare, press Ctrl+Alt+Del and then click Logout.
To log out of a specific server, right-click Network Neighborhood, click
NetWare Connections, select the server or tree, and then click Detach.
IMPORTANT: We recommend that users do not use the LOGOUT.EXE
command. If you use this command, specify a server name (LOGOUT
server_name).
Setting Up Passwords in Windows NT/2000
We recommend that you configure NT workstations to not use any of the
Microsoft password restrictions available in User Manager. Novell Client for
Windows NT works best if password restrictions are set in NDS.
