MORE INFORMATION

Step 1 - On the Novell Server

1. Create a new account or use any existing account.
2. Give this account "Trustee Directory Assignments" for the folder in which the database resides.
3. Give this account the following rights: Create, Erase, File Scan, Modify, Read, Write.
4. Create a Group called NTGATEWAY.
5. Add the user to this group.

Step 2 - On the NT Server

1. Install GSNW (Gateway Services for NetWare) if not already installed.
2. Open GSNW control panel. Set the preferred server to the Novel Server.
3. Click on Gateway and set the Gateway Account to the account created or modified in Step 1 - On the Novell Server.
4. Set the password for that account.
5. Click ADD, and map a drive letter to a Novell share. Note the drive letter.
6. Click OK twice to exit GSNW. You should now be able to create a new DSN that uses the gateway's mapped drive letter to access the database on the Novell server.
