>>You mentioned GPLib, so you may be able to omit the Novell login if GPLib will let you do this step using one of their functions. I use NetLib but I do not use it for initial user login. I use NetLib to get the user ID of the person who is logged on as verification and for authenticating to other Novell servers. I am still leary of this actually working without Client32 loaded on the WS.

Ahh. This is different. I suggest your problem is GPLib and not Novell or NT.
