I have an AST 386 machine with MSDOS 4.01.  When I use that machine to
log on Novell, Novell interprets it as IBM_PC, MSDOS V4.00.  Since we 
do have other machines using DOS 4.00 on the network, that connects the 
AST to the wrong network DOS directory, and sometime it causes COMMAND.COM
not found error.
I like to hard code the AST's OS VERSION to 4.01.  Someone suggested to do
it with the SHELL.CFG file.  I tried it but it didn't work.  Also the Novell
manual doesn't say anything about how to change OS VERSION.  Does anyone
has suggestions regarding how to resolve this problem?

Thanks.
