Maybe, I've done something wrong, but there seems to be some other unpleasant  
features too.
I could see, that a connection which is established to a NetWare server remains  
active (AND IN LOGGED IN STATE) after I've logged out from my NeXT. Why to hell  
this ? I'm not sure if this could be a great security hole!!
The other thing is, if I try to copy some files from a large directory with  
many files and directories on it (for example the sys:mail directory with about  
1300 subdirectories on it) the performance decreases rapidely and after some  
time the connection seems to hung. Each time if this happens, I could not break  
the connection from my next, I had to switch to the Netware server console and  
to delete the connection.
BTW, I could see the File Viewer could handle such large directories but a  
simple 'ls -lR' will also die in such a directory.

Any hints and suggestions are welcome
