DOCUMENT:Q63356 30-OCT-1999 [win95x] TITLE :NetWare Options in the SYSTEM.INI in Windows 3.0 PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 95.x Retail Product PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.0,3.0a OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= This article contains information on SYSTEM.INI options that pertain to the Microsoft Windows 3.0 Novell NetWare driver. MORE INFORMATION ================ The SYSTEM.INI is the Windows system configuration textfile. It is also located in the user's personal directory on the network, and holds information on system level device options. The [NetWare] section holds information specifically related to the NetWare Windows driver. The following is an example. [NetWare] RestoreDrives=TRUE/false The RestoreDrives= parameter controls how NetWare drive mappings are treated when you exit Windows. In the default mode (RestoreDrives=TRUE), when you exit Windows all drive mappings are restored to their previous state before Windows was executed. If you had performed any additional drive mappings while within Windows, these are removed when you exit. Setting RestoreDrives=FALSE preserves on exit all drive mappings made while Windows was running. The following parameter controls how resource visibility is treated in enhanced-mode Windows on a NetWare system: [NetWare] NWShareHandles=true/FALSE In the default setting (NWShareHandles=FALSE), the NetWare system behaves with the inherited-visibility method. The optional NWShareHandles=TRUE setting makes the enhanced-mode NetWare driver use the Global visibility method instead.
