Hey Tony

Yeah we are still having probs.  Legato Support suggested yesterday
that I apply the new libc.nlm.  After much trouble getting Novell
Support to actually provide us with it (you can't just download it), we
applied it and it hasn't fixed the problem.

Note that we have 2 calls open:
Case 1: 7.2 client on NetWare 6.5 SP5
Case 2: 4.22 client on NetWare 6.5 SP5

We were forced to apply SP5 due a memory leak problem we were
experiencing on some servers with SP4.  SP5 has fixed the memory leak,
but has caused havoc with our backups.

I have tried the new libc.nlm wrt both of these cases.

Cheers,
Ryan.

Ryan,

Still having trouble with SP5? (I am mulling over plans to apply SP5
here)

In related news, did you see Novell has a new libc for the RPC errors:
