Hi -
I have some info on OS/2 2.1 beta and Novell Requestor 2.0.  If anyone 
running into the same problem, please let me know if you found a workaround 
for it.
Previous setup:  os/2 2.0 with 32-bit graphic engine CSD and Novell 
Requestor.  I follow the beta instruction and install it over my current 
setup.  Everything went OK.  Afterward, the requestor loaded OK, however I 
no longer see the NETWARE RESOURCES option in the DOS settings.  Netware 
Tools ran fine.

Next Try:  Install the beta to a new hard drive.  Install the requestor.  
This time the netware resources is there.  I go back to the previous 
machine, remove the requestor, reinstall the requestor, netware resources 
option is there.

Another problem:  I login the netware server via netware tools, define drive 
mapping and printers.  I then go to win-os2 setting and change its netware 
resources to GLOBAL.  Run win-os2, run control panel, select printer - I 
cannot setup the network printer (It lists all the netware queues & 
printers), but refuses to connect.  I try this on the new OS/2 setup, the 
ugrade setup but still the same.

I went to an OS/2 2.0 station with the same setup - no problem at all.
