Hi There,

1 out of 15 identical machines that fails to logon to server.
error message=
You are attached to server XXXXX
good afternoon
T:\xxxx>xxxx
S:svbe.exe ver 0.83 has been installed.
support vbe 2.0
BLX286 no host found. a DPMI, VCPI or XMS host is required.
This is a DOS Extended program which requires a minimum of a 286 CPU and at least 512kb of available DPMI, VCPI or XMS memory to run. Please ensure that your system is configured with a memory manager which provides these resources.
user XXXX logged out from server XXXXX

I have run memtest v2.01 and Micro-Scope2000 with no errors.
I forgot to mention that the server is a Novell 5.1 server. I have also tried it on a Novell 3.2 server and got the same result.
If anyone has any ideas I can provide further information.

It looks like you are getting logged into the server but you are running a dos app via the login script. Rem it out of the login script and in the meantime contact the dos app vendor for a fix.

Imagine the power of knowing how to internet search

From tek-tips "
You have your program linked in Real Mode. Change to Protected mode for Windows(tm) execution."

Are you starting from floppy? Review autoexec and config sys and the files it points to. Looks like the extended memory isn't loading.

Might repost this in dos forum.

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you peanut.
