This file is for SUPERVISORS OF NOVELL NETWORKS.  It was created because we

have found too many Novell networks where everyone logs in as the

Supervisor or the same person, i.e. Sales.



NETTALK will NOT work under these circumstances as EACH NETTALK user much

have their own different login name, i.e., Jane, John, Vicki, Tom, etc.

Otherwise, NETTALK does not know who to send the message too.  That is, if

everyone logs in as supervisor, you would be sending to yourself.



To add a user to a Novell 3.11 Network, please



Login as Supervisor



From the DOS prompt type           Syscon



From the Syscon menu select        User Information



Press the INSERT button on your keyboard (do not type insert, the insert

button is generally located above the cursor buttons and to the right of

the ENTER button)



You will then see                  User Name



Type in the User Name you want to add, i.e., Fred



Press the ENTER button



You will be asked to Verify Creation of New Directory



Move Cursor to YES



Press the ENTER button



You have successfully added a user.



To quit, Press the ESC button on your keyboard a few times to quit SYSCON.



NOTE: This is a brief explanation of adding a user to a Novell Network, we

urge caution if you are unfamiliar with Novell and you should contact your

dealer.



Novell Rights



As the Novell LAN Manager, you need to give your users rights to the

INTERCOM directory where you have placed NetTalk.  The reason is that each

person has their own Yellow Sticky Pad file and their own Call Log.  If you

do not know how to give RIGHTS, you can start by typing RIGHTS from

wherever you have placed NetTalk.  This will tell you what RIGHTS you have.

This will NOT tell you what RIGHTS other users have.



STOP, before you proceed if you are unfamiliar with Novell, we suggest you

call your dealer for specific advice regarding your individual Novell

network.  Your dealer may have other ways to accomplish this or specific

recommendations.


In order to add RIGHTS to your Novell Network,

you login as SUPERVISOR and type SYSCON


Then Select - Group Information

Then Select - Group Names - Everyone

Then Select - Trustee Directory Assignments

Then hit the INSERT button

Type   SYS:Intercom

Hit the Enter button

Then hit the INSERT button - Select Create

Hit the Enter button

The hit the INSERT button - Select Erase

Hit the Enter button

Then hit the INSERT button - Select Modify

Hit the Enter button

Then hit the INSERT button - Select Write

Hit the Enter button

Then hit the INSERT button - Select Access Control

Then hit the ESC button a number of times until you leave SYSCON and then
you are done.

NOTE: You should then restart or reboot your PCs.

Frankly, this doesn't take very long and will help you familiarize yourself
with Novell.

If you have any questions, please call YOUR DEALER.
