Novell Client for Linux Known Issues Readme ® This document includes information on known issues that have not been resolved for Novell Client 1.0 for Linux. Additional Documentation For documentation on installing and configuring Novell Client for Linux, see the Readme files contained in the download.
32-bit hardware only. Uninstall Previous Version before Installing When you are installing Novell Client for Linux, you must first uninstall any previous version of Novell Client for Linux (this includes beta versions). If you do not uninstall previous versions, the novfs kernel driver might not load correctly.
Login Issues Integrated Login Not Provided This version of Novell Client for Linux does not provide an integrated login experience with the initial workstation login screen. Users who have migrated from Windows* desktops to Linux do not have the same experience and must log in to the workstation and then log in to the network using the Novell Client for Linux.
THEN WRITE “This is July” Cannot Log In If you are experiencing problems logging in with Novell Client for Linux, a first step is to check that the needed packages are all running. At the Console Terminal, type ps -A | grep nov.
During a file copy, the workstation hangs because of issues with FAM/iNotify. These issues are not directly related to Novell Client, but happen because of the way FAM validates requests. This means that in order to complete a file copy, you must remove the FAM service.
A patch for this defect will be posted. No Network Browsing Capability on Nautilus There is no Novell network browsing capability in the Nautilus browser. Full capability is provided with the Konqueror browser. Nautilus and FAM Generate High Amounts of Traffic Nautilus and FAM generate high amounts of traffic during file operations and severely impact the performance of the Novell Client for Linux.
The Map dialog box drop-down list of drive letters does not display the resources that are already mapped in the same way that Novell Client for Windows does (the Novell Client for Windows displays the drive letter and then the server/volume information).
