When the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks database is located on a Novell
NetWare version 4.1 server, the Mail Connection Gateway must have the purge
option turned on for the MS Mail Connection Gateway store directory on the
postoffice or it may hang.
WORKAROUND
To enable the purge option, do the following:
- At the console prompt, type the following:
- Choose Console Set Commands from the Available Options menu.
- Choose File System from the Categories menu.
- Change the following parameters in the File system menu to the
indicated values:
Immediate Purge on Deleted Files=ON
File Deleted Wait Time=0
Minimum File Delete Wait Time=0 - Press the Escape key (ESC) twice to reach the Update Options menu.
- Choose Update AUTOEXEC.NCF & STARTUP.NCF Now from the Update Options
menu.
- To exit SERVMAN, press the Escape key (ESC).
MORE INFORMATION
If the Mail Connection Gateway user account that logs into the Novell
NetWare version 4.1 server does not purge when it deletes files, the
Macintosh side of the gateway and the PC side of the gateway will appear to
have different files in the subdirectory. The Macintosh will try to pick up
the previously deleted files, and the gateway will appear to freeze.
