To those like me who are having trouble mapping drives under the
Client 32 Open Beta for DOS/Windows:

Load PATCHMAN and SHORTAFX on the server.  These files are provided in
directory ADMIN\PATCHES\NW311 of the client distribution (either
network or diskette versions, I presume; I'm using the network
version).

I gleamed this idea from someone in comp.os.netware.misc, I believe.  I
lost the original article, though--it was the one that indicated that
there was a patch for this but didn't include a name.  To whoever
posted that, THANKS!  I would never have expected to solve a problem
with a new client by modifying the server.

Btw, this also gets rid of the "Warning:  Unexpected error 9 (ffff)"
message which appears right after login.

Now all I've got to do is to get my public PRINTCON.DAT file to work
again...

For this to work on Netware 3.11 you need to have `read only compatibility=on' 
and `search mode=5' in the `netx' section of net.cfg. (After making your 
printcon.dat publicly available of course.) 

Be warned! The former setting causes any subsequent installation of MS Office 
to fail and must be set to `off' before doing such.
