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!

- NetWare
- eDirectory
- Solaris/NIS+
- Exchange 2003
- SCT Banner
- Blackboard
