I am trying to get an NCF file that I created to work as a Pre/Post command for Backup Exec.

If I type in the name of the NCF file at the server console, I receivce a message that states: Unable to find load file xxx.ncf ???Unknown Command???
I cannot figure this out and now I am totally frustrated. My NCF file does not have the word load in it, so why does the error message say, unable to find load file xxx.ncf????

Please help me somebody.....What am I overlooking?

That message means that novell can not find your NCF file.

Make sure that the NCF file is in the sys:system folder on the server.

From the novell console all most all commands are used with LOAD except for the NCF files.

So the unlaod to load file xxx.nfc just means that from the console you can not see the file.

I would go do a dos prompt and make sure that the file is really named xxx.ncf and not xx.ncf.txt.

Backup Exec has an ncf file called astart6.ncf that loads the program.

You will find it in the sys:\system directory.

Is the NLM that needs to be loaded in the default directory? If it is not add the search path or move the NLMs to the system (default) directory. I hope that this helps?
