IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs.

SYMPTOMS
When you try to install Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW) on your Windows NT Server, you may receive the following error:

Please remove any existing Gateway Service for NetWare component and

reboot your machine before installing the latest version of GSNW.

No GSNW, SAP, or RIP for IPX components are installed on the system.



CAUSE
Some registry entries from the Novell intraNetWare Client are conflicting with GSNW installation.



RESOLUTION
GSNW and the intraNetWare Client do not work together. If you choose to have GSNW, remove intraNetWare and then install GSNW.
