For those of you who've seen this problem, does it occur on all your
netware ADSM v3 clients?   Or is it sporadic?  We are just getting ready to
roll out V3 on all our production netware (currently ADSM V2) clients, and
of course, this makes me think twice.   But we could sure use the No-Query
restore feature out there on our production servers.

     IBM has accepted our complaint and assigned an APAR to it.  IC22119.

     Anyone who knows the actual API code (reputed to exist) in Netware
     that permits an app to release memory might forward that info to IBM
     and note this APAR number . . .
