[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Error using R/O stacks on network

taylorj@yvax.byu.edu (10/04/90)

When I try to use an unlocked (from Get Info) stack residing in a read-only
folder on a Novell network, I get file system error -5000.  Repeatedly.
Forever.  I have to restart to get out.  I had hoped this would be fixed in
version 2.0 but it's not.  The error doesn't occur if the stack is locked.

Is this a problem with HyperCard on any network, or just a problem with Novell
NetWare (2.15C)?

At least I can now lock the Home stack and let multiple users on the network
share it.  And for this I praise the great gods of the HyperCard Team!  Thank
you!
