[comp.os.vms] "Netware-VMS help

lasantha@%b56vxg (Lasantha) (09/12/90)

Hello,

	We are doing some testing with Netware-for-VMS to connect a PC lan
running novell to our VAXcluster (2*6210).

What we are discovering is that the PC's take much longer to load the 
executables and do general file transfers off the VAX (file server). This is
compared to a 386 based PC file server. (Its almost double the time when the 
files start getting larger).

	o Has anyone using netware for vms seen this behaviour?.

	o Can I do any tuning of the Netware process, drivers or anything else 
	  to  improve the performance?.

	o Is this delay due to file conversion netware has to do?.

	o I would also like to get some details about how the netware stuff 
	  works on the VAX. The novell people here dont want to give us any 
	  tech details.

Please post to the net, as I cant get e-mail at present.

Thanks very much
