>>We seem to be seeing some odd behaviour out of GPLib when going from Netware 3.x to NetWare 4.x. Something is lying to something somewhere. If the user is not already on the target sever, GPLib will log them on, but then the map call fails, only GPLib doesn't think it failed. Needless to say, this causes some major problems (system can't find ANYTHING), so I was wondering if anyone else is using GPLib and has run across this problem and what did you do to fix it?

Well, I've got a routine that checks for the first available drive letter (we don't have fixed drive letters). Basically, the procedure is

1. Check if already logged in.
2. Find unused drive letter
3. If already logged in Map, otherwise log -in and map.
4. Run system
5. if already logged in, mapdel, otherwise logout with a .t. (to detach)


I'll add the mapdel in right after I find the first available drive letter and see if that helps.
