Hello,

Is anyone aware of a way to get the Netware 5.x/6.x Server GUI working
through a remote card such as a Dell DRAC? A driver or software install
perhaps? Thanks in advance.

Jake

I can't think of any, but have you asked Dell?

I will try, but Dell has awful support for Netware. But the way I figure,
if you can get the windows 2000 gui working from within in they should make
the novell gui work.

The GUI redirect in DRAC is driver based, and not HW.
This is the same for W2k.
DRAC is only able to redirect text based screens directly.
 
In ERA and DRACIII versions, are they using VNC.

Look for the new NetWare based VNC. I haven't tested it but the docs
say it can redirect the gui screen.

Mark,

Your message was not posted to the official Novell news
server. While your news server might show the Novell support
newsgroups, Novell has no official connection with other news
servers, and the message you posted will probably never
propagate to the official Novell server. The SysOps only see
messages on the Novell server and for that reason,
you will probably never get a reply to your
message posted here.

I suggest you post your message directly to the official
novell news server named support-forums.novell.com. The
Novell news server is freely accessible both through HTTP
