Is there a way to automate the login process in Netware 5.0.. Perhaps through a dos batch file. I need to use the resources on the netware server, but can go through the hassle of logging on everytime the system is rebooted..

Search support.novell.com for autologin. There are a few messages on it. None are real clear though.

What resources ? Can you do this command line and through DOS?

If you create a txt file - you can pipe that to auto log you on. Ain't GUI, but it'll autolog you on.

Heck you can jsut put it all on one floppy, put the floppy in and it autologs you in.

I guess I was a little vague. I am not quite sure how to make this login disk. I have one but it prompts for a password. What would be the sequence and parameters of files to execute to get a login without having to interact with it at all?

Thanxs

in your autoexec.bat, once the network components have been loaded put the line
login userID < a:\pw.dat
and create a file pw.dat on the floppy which has the first line of userID's password followed by a blank line.
