You don't mention what problems are occurring, what version of Novell the server is, and also what verison of Novell client they are running. It makes a difference. Here are a few places to start:
Verify the Novell Server NOS version and Support Pack level.
Verify the client settings. For NT/W2K/XP Novell Clients:
http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10013637.htmFor 95/98 Novell Clients:
http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10013620.htmVerify the following Client settings in the Novell client properties (right click on the red 'N' in the taskbar):
use extended file handles = on
close behind ticks = 0
opportunistic locking = off
File Caching Enabled=OFF
Delay Write =OFF
End Of Job =ON
Cache Writes = OFF
Hold Files = ON
True Commit = ON
Ensure the MAXIMUM FILE LOCKS PER CONNECTION is set at the server for the number of file locks required by the application and client (raise this number).
