I have been told, by a reply in the Microsoft Foxpro Newsgroup, by a gentleman that he went round and round with Microsoft AND Novell about this problem. He said that Novell finally admitted the problem was on there end, and that the problem "should" be fixed with the next release of Novell (5 I guess, I am not a Novell person).
My client that has experienced this has just upgraded there network version of Novell, but I have not heard from them yet as to whether or not they are still experiencing the problem.
