Hi

This is a strange one.

Apart from the beeps does the server function ok;

can users logon to it? If not then it could be a problem with the NIC card.

Is it syncronised with the other server?

How long between each beep?

Stuck Key? Try using a different Keyboard

Is the CD mounted? this used to cause a problem similar to this. If mounted take the command out of the autoexec.ncf

Load "monitor" and see what processes are running that may give you a clue.

Try unloading drivers one at a time to see if it stops.

Hope this is of help.

Once I had a server with a bad battery on the RAID Controller card and it made some funky beeps to warn that it was going bad.

Just a thought, if you think that Netware itself is OK.

Hi,

We have had the same problem caused by a lack of time sychronisation.

I wonder if this may be your problem??

We are running 4.11.

You can turn the beeps off.
