When attempting to login using netware client v4.91 SP3 I am receiving the message that the tree cannot be found. I added the user in the root in nwadmn32.exe and removed all accounts that weren't being used to eliminate any licensing issues. I can manually enter the tree, context, and server but I cannot select them when using the search function. I receive the message once again that there were no trees, context, servers found. I am really at a loss here and would appreciate any help you can provide.

Couldn't be a problem of Licenses, because at this stage of searching for trees and context, no license is needed.

Which version of Netware is running at the server?
And further question, did it work in the past?

Btw, if the server is running Netware 5.1 and Client uses IP-Protocol only, it will never find the server, the tree or the context by doing a search.

"Btw, if the server is running Netware 5.1 and Client uses IP-Protocol only, it will never find the server, the tree or the context by doing a search"

that statement is incorrect. NW5 was the first to use ip natively. Perhaps you were talking NW4.

Can you ping the server? Doesn't sound like you have a connection...

Knowing the correct answer and giving a correct answer, are two different things

@wanderer
Ups, sorry, you're right. Netware 5.1 is able to work with IP only.

@special ad
Could also be a router problem.
Some routers are blocking the slp protocol on multicast by default. You can start PIM.NLM at the server and try again.
If this does not help, you can increase the "Name Resolution Timeout" in the NWclient properties under "Advanced Settings" to 50 (default is 10), if the name server needs more time to resolve names.
