Novell SEND Command Does Not Poll for Stored Messages (146212)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q146212 SYMPTOMS
When you are using the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks and you
use the Novell NetWare SEND command (Send.exe) to poll for stored
messages on a Novell NetWare server, the SEND command may seem to
function incorrectly. The following message may be displayed, even
if stored messages are present on the server:
No stored messages to poll
This behavior can occur even though no error messages are displayed
when you use the SEND command to configure the broadcast mode so that
the server stores your messages until you poll to receive them.
CAUSE
The Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks is not compatible with this
feature of the Novell NetWare SEND command. When you configure the
broadcast mode so that the server stores your messages until you poll to
receive them, the message stated above is always displayed when you poll
for messages on the server.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use the Novell VLM or NETX network client
instead of the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks.
STATUS
This behavior is caused by a difference in the functionality provided by
the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks and the Novell VLM and NETX
clients, not by a problem in Microsoft Windows 95.
