SYMPTOMS
When you use versions 1.0 and 1.0a of Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows, and you attempt to access a .CAL file on another postoffice with only Novell NetWare Directory Services (NDS) enabled, you may experience the following error message:

The Schedule file could not be opened. You may not have the necessary access privileges or the file may be unavailable.

Schedule+ Dynamic Connections will fail and cannot connect to the server.



CAUSE
Schedule+ will not work with NDS alone. The NetWare API calls made by Schedule+ expect a bindery user or bindery type of log in.

NOTE: Bindery in Novell is the name of the security files used in NetWare 2.x and 3.x servers.



RESOLUTION
Enable Bindery Emulation on all servers and workstations participating in Schedule+ Dynamic Connections.



MORE INFORMATION
Schedule+ Schedule Distribution also requires that Bindery Emulation be enabled.

You can use either the VLM or NETX to attach to a version 3.11 or 4.x server with Bindery Emulation. NETX will not work against a 4.x server without Bindery Emulation.

Additional query words: schedule plus 1.00 1.00a Novell file cannot be opened
