A handy network diagnostic
On April 13th 2007 Novell released a new Winsock patch for NetWare, wsock6l. In that Readme, was this line:
Technical Support Information:
Included a new module called WS2NRM.NLM which is a replacement for winsock NRM diagnostics. Only needs to be loaded to troubleshoot winsock related issue through NRM.
And didn't tell anything else about this new thing. I found out about it on a recent support call. What it does is enable a new diagnostic page in the Novell Remote Manager for NetWare to track Winsock2 issues. This is handy!

Playing with IDM 3.5.1
I'm looking at Identity Management 3.5.1, thanks to an aging internally developed identity management system that needs a rewrite. I talk about what I've found, how our own environment is put together, and how IDM 3.5.1 could possibly fit in. Our environment includes:
- NetWare
- eDirectory
- Solaris/NIS+
- Exchange 2003
- SCT Banner
- Blackboard
