Novell NetWare

Invalid network drive specified.
Check the LASTDRIVE parameter in CONFIG.SYS if using NETX,
or the FIRST NETWORK DRIVE statement in NET.CFG if using
VLM. These should be set to the letter after your last local drive.
Typically one would use LASTDRIVE=E or FIRST NETWORK
DRIVE=F. If you are using a hard drive compression program that
creates extra drives (i.e. doublespace or stacker), you will need to
increase the values of the parameters (i.e.: LASTDRIVE=H or FIRST
NETWORK DRIVE=I).
File Server not found.
• Run the Intel test utility to see if any network traffic is visible.
• Check the frame types in the NET.CFG file. Your frame type
must match the frame type used by the file server. Remember
that the adapter binds to the first frame type listed in the
NET.CFG. If you are not sure what frame types the Novell
server is running, check the NET.CFG file of a workstation that
is able to attach. If you have access to the server, type CONFIG
at the server console and the screen will display the frame types.
• If this is a coax adapter, try another location on the cable
segment or if possible use a cable run that is shorter in overall
length.
• If this is a multi-server environment add a PREFERRED
SERVER parameter to the NET.CFG file.
• Verify the network drop is working by using a cable drop that
works for another workstation.
