Message-ID: Date: 26 Feb 91 22:44:01 GMT Sender: news@utsmips.csd.uts.EDU.AU Followup-To: comp.sys.novell Lines: 24 Nntp-Posting-Host: theseus.ccsd.uts.edu.au We have been installing a Netware 386 Server which we will manage, but another group owns & uses. We wish to prevent the "other group" from gaining access to the server through the console. Our problem is that the server itself sits in their territory, not ours! Now, MONITOR allows you to lock the console, and this is exactly what we need. The problem is that the "other group" only has to reboot the server and the lock is "broken"! To my questions... 1. Is there a standard way to lock the console upon boot? 2. If not, has anyone written an NLM to do this?? (should be a fairly easy thing to do.. but why re-invent the wheel??)
