Things I've written for NetWare
- C (mostly Visual C++ 6.0)
General NetWare:
- passchkW - a simple Novell Netware password validator, in Windows. You'll need the Netware SDK for this. It's mostly for illustration rather than actual usefulness.
ZENworks for Desktops:
- NALUpdate prepares the NAL (ZfD 3.2) files for updating on next reboot, and will either prompt for a reboot (though will not actually do it) or simply do nothing, if invoked with the 'Silent' parameter. An executable is available, though due to constraints (the PUBLIC directory must be on Y:\, it requires C:\TEMP and will create it if it doesn't exist, and there must be an environment variable ZEN with a value that is not 4) the source is probably more useful. It's best run as a run-once scheduled task or NAL object, and must be run as an administrator or system user.
- zisReboot - a way to automatically reboot after Zenworks imaging (NT-style Windows only). See instructions here.
- Note the following modules are (obviously) very old
- ZfD 3.0 Imaging modules - note that either of these modules also require you to add the pci-scan driver.
- ZfD 3.2 Imaging modules
- The following the programs may not work as on ZfD 6.5SP2 and up due to potential relocation of the ZISD area
- zisname returns the workstation name from the ZISD area, in a DOS environment. Source (written in Borland C++ v5) here.
- I've written a version of zisclear for Windows NT (and 2000/XP) - zisClearNT - source here.
- I've also written a version for Linux - zisclrln - source here. WARNING - This assumes the primary bootable drive where the image-safe data is stored is your first IDE hard drive.
- Visual Basic
- DiskUse - a disk usage lister for NetWare volumes. The 'recurse' check box will recurse into contexts when checked. (full zip here).
- QuotaChk - a simple quota usage lister (full zip here).
- UserMon - a user information monitor. Similar features to monitor.nlm, but works locally, within Windows. (full zip here).
