Novell Automatic Login

I am having some trouble with a few new desktops that we have gotten in. They have 3Com Ethernet NICs in them, and Windows 98 SE. Everything is okay until I install ANY Novell Client and then on the restart, I get an error saying that I could not be logged into the network and to make sure my username and password are correct and to contact my administtrator. I click ok, the login screen pops up, I type my username and password and everything works as it should. Does anyone know how to get rid of the initial automatic login? Any help would be appreciated.

We had a similar problem, and it was due to our Cisco switches having portfast enabled. We had to disable portfast for any port that had a workstation attached directly to it.
