 Netware 6 logon
I've just installed a copy of Netware 6, this is an evaluation version. I'm new to Netware and have an embarassing problem.
I'm unable to login locally to the Server which is called NW6. I didn't create any additional user accounts. I've tried all combinations of typefull/typless logons.
Do I need to type login first?
The NDS tree is called ENGLAND and the
Server context is 0=BIRMINGHAM
Admin name is CN=Admin O=BIRMINGHAM

First make sure that you try both capital and lowercase for your password.
Second go into autoexec.ncf and check if you made a mistake in context.
Third you can install NW client on any machine that is on the same network as your server. This way you can brouse your tree from "connections" tab. (choose your tree, then chose context, then server)
In worst case you might have to reinstall the server.
Have fun

Password in netware aren't case sensitive so that shouldn't be the problem.

This should do the trick. Make sure you have the latest client on the machine, then click on advanced, select your tree, then select your context. You should be able to login.
Good Luck!

Pardon me for asking but how did you make it through the CNE6 curriculum without knowing that NetWare passwords are not case sensitive?
What context would you expect to see in autoexec.ncf? I doubt a new NetWare user set a bindery context. He may have a syntax or resource problem but he seems to have his context.
NW6 evals and betas got some bugs. ConsoleOne from the server is way freaky. May need to use typeful distinguished: .cn=admin.o=birmingham
Running NW6 on an underpowered box can cause wierd problems - especially when installing all the bells and whistles. Services drop due to resources.
Best way in and most information is from portal:

I started with Microsoft. And therefore assumed that it is standard practice to make PWs case sensitive.
Also simple logic can tell you that if it was the other way around (case sensitive pws)
it might cause some problems. But in this case it would not make any difference.
I was little embarrassed in the beginning. Everyone make mistakes, that is why we have forums.
Thank you for clearing this out.
PS Do you really think that Novell curriculum is that difficult?

I wish Novell PWs were case sensitive - my first NOS was on HPUX so same for me. Ill have to ask one of the guru's why they are not - maybe its Novells security track record? Thats a damn good question - Do you really think that Novell curriculum is that difficult?
It's how busy I am on the job and that results in how I approach the task of studying. I am working on NetWare, ZenWorks, GroupWise, BorderManager, etcetera plus all the servers, workstations and thier MS OS's, the LAN/WAN, etcetera. So taking the time to study nightly based on the curriculum is hard to fit in - cause I usually am looking up problems at night to resolve issues at work for the next day. The studying rounds off my product knowledge (increases it) but takes time away from looking up problems directly applicable to doing my job.
I dont find the material hard to understand, I just make the process of passing the exams difficult for me. I have heard people say over and over that Novell and CNE is harder to work on and test for than MS and MCSE.
I ran across this guys resume:
http://www.devinator.com/htdocs/about/devin.html
Most instructors have alot of certs, but this guy is obviously in the field. My point is he seems to do the certs and work hard in the field whereas lots of people are either loaded with certs or field expertise but not always both.
Do you think Novell is dificult?

It is difficult to gain practical (real) knowledge of Novell.
It is easy to pass these tests without much of hands on.
I don't think that just passing these tests will give you enough real world knowledge

I just passed CNE myself, and found the tests moderately difficult. Like most certs, I think the Netware curriculum seems more geared to give you a good foundational knowledge of the bells and whistles of the NOS. Really CNE is overkill for most of my current job responsibilities as we have a server implementation team, but the curriculum helped me understand the overall design and operation, key terms, and utilities.
Most of my hands on is with NW 4.11 (mainly administration), but 5.1 is similar enough on many points to allow some 4.11 hands-on to help. I had planned to build a 5.1 server at home with the eval. copy, but after paying a handsome sum for body work on my truck, didn't have the cash yet to load hardware. We will be upgrading our servers to 5.1 in the next few months, so I expect more advanced hands-on in the near future to back up the certs.
