I was following the comments on the problem with ELS II and running dos
programs.  Whenever a dos program was exited, command.com couldn't be found
and the workstation shell would crash.  Does anybody know what causes this? 
I set up a search path for command.com and all sorts of stuff with no result.
 
I was able to figure out a work around...  If you load another copy of
command.com as mentioned by someone earlier it works.  Basically I would load
a copy right after loading the netware shell.  If I did it before logging in,
all the search paths would be screwed up.  If I did it after, all the search
paths would be fine, and if used with the /p parameter, it wouldn't have to
be loaded for that session.  Anybody really know how this is all working?  Is
it safe?
 
I was also wondering if anyone was interested in starting an echo devoted to
Novell networks.  If you're interested, I can be contacted at 1:114/54.
