[comp.sys.novell] secret debugger in NetWare 3.11 revealed!

	Remember, you read it first on USENET.

	NetWare 3.11 (and probably 3.x versions) has an 
	undocumented internal debugger that could be useful
	in tracking down errors, abend messages, diagnostics, etc.

	To get there: ALT-SHIFT-SHIFT-ESC all at the same time.

	The debugger prompt is #. There's several help screens -
	#H, #.H, #HE, #HB; all the commands are fully explained.
	For example, under #.h is .A, which is "display the
	abend or break reason". 

	To get back: I use a 'g' which is a 'go' at current address,
	and returns to where the system console left off.

	Caution: When in debugger login seems disabled. There may
	be other side-effects on users so use care. Does not
	work under RCONSOLE.
