This is the most frustrating problem I have had.
The scenario is as follows, two netware 4.11 servers,with the latest patches.(Compaq proliants)
PC’s running netware client v3 through to the latest.Four NT servers.
The problem is that on random occasions workstations will run very slow, i.e each click takes 5-10mins. Even disconnecting from the network from the wall has the same effect. We have narrowed it down to IPX and the netware client software. On removing these from the network settings brings the pc back up to speed.
Not all pc’s are effected. Its not a virus.
This will carry on for about 5 days or so and then the problem will just disappear.
It started again on Thursday 13 July , it has been ok for nearly six months prior to that.
Help Help.
