We are using LanSpool, which works fine most of the time, but whenever traffic gets too heavy, it appears to get confused, and queues stop working, and sometimes jobs don't even complete printing 2 - What type of LAN management software is available? In particular, it would be nice to be able to archive, and remove files as desired on a regular basis. I have a monthly responsibility to do a full backup, then remove certain files, so we have room on the file-server for the next month. I have a program which will let me delete files by date, but it would be nice to be able to automate this somehow. We are using: Novell 2.15 SFT/Advanced PS/2 Model 80 4mg of memory 350 mg of HD 2 Thomas-Conrad ArcNet cards All workstations are PC-compatibles, and are running the standard Thomas-Conrad ArcNet cards. We elected to use the Twisted-pair media. Any questions/comments would be welcom. -Tim Noyce Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
