NEAT Module Loader Pausing Utility (NCFWAIT.NLM)

Problem1: "GroupWise did not start from autoexec.ncf on my 4.1x system"

Problem2: "That went fast, what happened?"

Solution: Use "NCFWAIT" from NEAT

 

Problem description

After a migration from NetWare 3.12 to NetWare 4.11, we discovered that the GroupWise Agents and Gateways did not start from the "autoexec.ncf" when the "DOMAIN" directory was located on an another server. The agents and gateways loaded just fine when launched from the commandline.
While we investigated this problem we discovered that the server does not always see other servers (DISPLAY SERVERS) after the "autoexec.ncf" has finished, but that it would after a few seconds.

Solution

NEAT development created a solution, which puts the server's console and module loader on hold for a specified amount of seconds or until you press a key. In the meantime the NCP has enough time to see all servers and the "autoexec.ncf" can continue to lauch the Agents and Gateways.
Ofcourse you can use this tools for other purposes such as debugging a ncf file.
