Hello there.... We are running Novell 386 with IBM PS/2's, model 50's and above. We would like to develope C programs to run on the N/W, for various purposes. I am experienced in C, but have never tried it on a LAN. Can some more experienced soul guide me as to how to get started, and what do I need to do to get my C routine running on the N/W??? For example, I want to write a C routine that will count the number of times a user logs in, and the number of times that user prints on the network printers. How do I approach these problem??? Thank You for your attention. Nikhil Dakwala Computer Lab, School of Medicine SUNY at Buffalo dakwala@cs.buffalo.edu

McCann's NetWare Programmer's Guide, published by Business Systems Group (800-950-LANS). you will also need a NetWare development kit from Novell that has a (not very well written, I understand) manual and a bunch of C function libraries. I'm not sure what the current price for the kit is, but any Novell dealer should have it on the price list. ================================================================================ dennis p. harris bitnet: jsdph@alaska.edu "The nation that controls magnetism controls the Universe." --- Diet Smith ================================================================================

NetWare Programmer's Guide by John McCann (M&T Books) contains excellent examples in C/ASM/Pascal. Comes w/ floppy, about $45. Some examples include: o bindery o queue o IPX/SPX o named pipes o VAP's o NLM's For both 286 and 386 NetWare. alan -- Alan Strassberg alan@oetl.scf.lockheed.com (408) 425-6139 alan@leadsv.ese.lmsc.lockheed.com
