Hi All,



I have an Access database sitting on top of a Novell server. Five of us 

have admin permissions, the rest that use it are Read/Write only. I am not 

able to make changes to the DB, and I think the whitepaper at MS pointed 

to the fact that the Novell server might be the culprit.



Any suggestions?



Thank you

We have been developing Access applications for about eight years here 

under Novell server and had never had a problem due the Novell.



The biggest problem we had so far was trying to run Access applications 

under Command Antivirus for Windows from v4.62.2 till current version. 



We basically have to disable Dynamic Virus Protection or at least disable 

scanning of network drives to get our applications running on the network 

at acceptable speed with this antivirus program.  If we left Command at 

default settings, the antivirus program caused more problems then solved.  

It sloweeed our Access applications to an absolute crawl while Command 

Antivirus checked it for viruses.  All our efforts to get some kind of a 

patch to remedy this problem failed. 



Command Software System, upgraded our version which had sped up Access 

applications, however, the new version also stoped us from deleting any 

network files at all.  It just locked them completely and we could not 

delete any files at all.  So far we had no success with Command Software 

System, therefore, if you need to develop any Access application for 

network deployment stay away from Command Antivirus for Windows.
