When I search for files on any Netware volume the search tool (find files and folders) quits responding. I can search for any files on any other file server or local drives but not on Netware volumes. This happens on all my Windows 2000 Pro PC's.I have tried both versions of Client 32 Ver 4.8X and 4.7X and the same results. Any ideas?

i am experiencing the same issue. however, my searches always work - they just are really slow at the start. it seems to be frozen, but after 30 seconds or so it starts doing its thing. wish i had a fix for you, but i don't. you may want to try someof the tweaks mentioned here:
