Must Use Windows 95 Client for NetWare with DBCS-Named Server (130822)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q130822 SUMMARY
The File and Print Sharing for NetWare Networks network service
(NWSERVER.VXD) that is included with Windows 95 supports double-byte
character set (DBCS) naming of NCP servers. However, while the Microsoft
Client for NetWare Networks (NWREDIR.VXD) also supports DBCS server names,
the Novell
NetWare VLM client does not.
Therefore, to connect to a Windows 95 computer that is running the File
and Print Sharing for NetWare Networks network service and has a DBCS
server name, you must be using the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks.
MORE INFORMATION
Double-byte character sets include character sets such as Japanese and
Kanji that use 16 bits to store each character. Single-byte character sets
(such as the English character set) use only 8 bits to store each
character.
