Client Services for Netware

[Terry]

What is Client Services for Netware, where did it come from and how do I get rid of it?



I've been aware of its presence on the Control Panel for quite some time, but I've never tried
to figure it out until now. Some time ago, presumably as a result of some XP update, I acquired
a Log On dialog at startup. I am the ONLY user of my computer and when it asks for a password,
I just hit "enter" and go on past the Log On box. I'd just like to ge rid of the Log On dialog
entirely, which is why I went to control panel and how I found CSNW.



When I try to "change the way users log on or off" I get the message "Client Services for
Netware has disabled the Welcome screen and Fast User Switching. To restore these features, you
must uninstall Client Services for Netware." Which brings me back to my original question:
What is it? Where'd it come from? What's if for? And since it does not show up on the
"Add/Remove Programs" feature, just how do I get rid of it? Or -- is there some reason that I
should **not** get rid of it?



I have looked for information on this using Google. I found several articles, including one by
Microsoft, but nothing seemed to apply to me.



I'd appreciate any info I can get. Thanks.

Client Service for NetWare is the Novell Client side app used to log into
Novell networks.
To remote it go to your network connection properties

Control Panel (classic view)
Click network Connections
Right click on your Network adapter, Modem or wireless adapter
select properties
highlight "Client Service for NetWare" or anything that says NetWare or
Novell
then click uninstall.
Restart

That should do it

You may have accidentally installed this "client" in you Local Area
Connection properties. You can uninstall it since I do not believe that you
are connecting to a local Novell server.

Client Services for NetWare lets a Windows XP computer communicate on
a network that uses NetWare software from http://www.novell.com . If
you don't log onto a NetWare network, you don't need it, and it's safe
to get rid of it.

I'm sorry, but I don't know how it got installed on your computer.
Perhaps some other program that you installed did it.

Here's how to un-install it:

1. Go to Control Panel | Network and Internet Connections | Network
Connections.

2. Right-click any network connection and click Properties.

3. Click "Client Services for Netware" and click Uninstall.

It's been 3 days now, and I'm beginning to wonder why no one has responded. Am I asking the
question in the wrong NG? I suppose it's possible no one knows anything about this particular
problem, but that seems sort of unlikely. I really would appreciate it if someone could point me
in the right direction.

Thank you.

Hi Terry,

Right click My Network Places and select Properties. Right click the
Internet connection in question, or LAN connection, and select Properties.
On the Networking tab, This connection uses...highlight Client Services for
Netware and select Uninstall.

password,

If you don't need the Novell Client to connect to a LAN:

Start > Network Connections > Right-click on the desired connection >
Properties > General > High-light the Client Services for Novell >
Uninstall.

I posted this question about 3 days ago and so far, no response. Am I in the wrong NG? Have I
violated some protocol? I suppose it's possible that no one knows anything about this
particular problem, but I'd sure appreciate some kind of a response -- any response -- that
might give me a clue on where to look for an answer or solution to this problem.

Again, thanks very much in advance.
