Can anybody tell me where I can get or how can I do novell procedure such as send messages, logging in/out, getting a user list ect.. in TP 5.5-6.0? FTP mail or otherwise? I need this information ASAP! Thanks! P.S. Please post the message instead of E-MAILing me a response (I can't read mail sent to me &^%%^$^%$^%$^%$^%$) Thanks! Dante.......

According to a copy of the Oct. 1990 BULLETS, published for developers by Novell Austin, there is a DOS system calls product which is believe is for assembler. If TP has an inline assembler function you may be able to use it. For more info, call 1-800-RED-WORD. The folsk that answer the phone there are programmers who understand programmers' needs (they're the folks that developed BTRIEVE). I believe that LAN TIMES has published some TP code from time to time also. ================================================================================ dennis p. harris bitnet: jsdph@alaska.edu "The nation that controls magnetism controls the Universe." --- Diet Smith ================================================================================

I'd suggest that you try 'LANtic Software. They sell a turbo pascal interface to all of the Novell API functions (about 200 functions). It includes functions such as SendPersonalMessage, LoginToFileServer, and I remember seeing various user listing functions, so it should serve your purposes. Here's what they say in the beginning of their online documentation, as well as there address and phone number: Turbo Pascal, Novell API Library 'Lantic Software Version 1.2 - 6/27/90 These routines were developed under Turbo Pascal version 5.x and Novell Advanced Netware version 2.12. Testing under Netware 386 has shown that all functions except the server status requests appear to work. It is recommended that you purchase the "Novell API Reference" from Novell. These may help in understanding the API. A fully functional version is available from 'Lantic software for $75. This includes the latest version or the TPU, IPX/SPX functions TPU, and more detailed documentation.

We just received the Developers Kit, and it has libraries for MSC, Lattice,
Turbo C, and Watcom. The include files are the same for all compilers.
How it works, I don't know, we just got it yesterday and so far all I have
done is look over the contents of the disks, install the MSC libraries,
and currently am reading the docs. It does have a lot of example sources
to create some potentially handy utilities. It seems to be a 'must have'
to do any of the Netware-specific operations...

On CIS there are a set of shareware TPUs for TP 4, 5, 5.5, and 6 that
implement all the API calls. You'd still need the API documentation from
Novell.
