SYMPTOMS
When you access MS-DOS-based database applications on a Novell NetWare 3.11 server through Client Service for NetWare, the response may be very slow and sometimes the access request may time-out.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when the Hewlett-Packard (HP) HP27247B network adapter card is installed.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do the following:


 * 1) Make sure the 10BASE-T cable is at least an AT&T class 3 or higher.
 * 2) Replace the HP27247B network card with another network card listed in the Windows NT 3.1 Hardware Compatibility List.
