Another option would be to install NetWare on the workstation with the CD-ROM and do and accross-the-wire upgrade. Make sure that you don't install the real server into the same NDS tree as the install server though. That would cause all sorts of problems when you finished. > I'd be very grateful of any help offered, > thanks, The first thing you should do is install the NW 4.1 documentation on the workstation with the CD-ROM drive and review the instalation options, as there are several. Good luck. Rick
