Arrangement of This Manual

This manual documents messages generated by approximately 100 Novell Internet Access Server 4.1 modules. The modules are arranged alphabetically. They are followed by three appendixes:

• Resolving Memory Problems provides general troubleshooting suggestions for making memory available on your server or router.
• Message Return and Error Codes provides return code and error code information that appears within Novell Internet Access Server 4.1messages.

Message Syntax

A unique identifying code precedes most error messages. Usually, this code consists of the following components:

• The module name (for example, IPXNLP)
• The product version or platform (for example 6.50)
• The message number (for example, 1)

For example, a typical message for IPXNLP appears as follows:

IPXNLP-6.50-1 Error, resource allocation failed

Some variation occurs in the format of certain groups of messages. Some messages do not have a unique identifying code, so they are listed alphabetically in the module that originated the message.

Console Messages

When messages appear at the server system console prompt, the current date and time, module name and module version, and message number appear before the message text as follows:

10-10-96 3:43:35pm: NWCSU-2.00 7000E2 [NIASCFG]message text

If another module name appears in brackets before the message, as does NIASCFG in the example, that module is the module that displayed the message. The first module listed, NWCSU in this example, is the module that produced the message.
