To all,

	I have four NetWare 4.1 servers, two of which have a Btrieve 
error message relating to the NetWare for Mac Desktop Database.  All 
servers run NetWare 4.1, NetWare 4.1 for Mac, and NetWare NFS services 
2.1.  

	The servers in question flash the message below on the System 
Console when the error occurs.  The server beeps as the message appears. 
 Sometimes a few errors appear; sometimes several hundred appear and it 
goes on for a few minutes or up to have an hour.  Typically when the 
error occurs, CPU util. goes up to 100% and clients have said there is 
slow response.  Here's the message:

AFP-4.10-16 Unrecoverable Btrieve error 2 from operation 5 desktop 
database, rebuild needed on volume FS3-Acad.USER.

If I attempt a rebuild using the AFPCON volume maintenance option, the 
server finds a few files with errors, then within 5-7 minutes, the 
server abends.

I'm pretty sure Novell is aware of the problem as the most recent fixes, 
41MAC5.EXE and 41MAC6.EXE mention the problem but don't fix it.  I have 
41MAC7.EXE but have yet to try it on these servers.

I'm looking for any help and for anyone with the same problem.  If you 
can help, please write me at:

Thanks and if an answer is found, I will definitely post it to the 
group.
