NetWare 4.11 and intraNetWare 4.11

Patches and notes about Netware 4.11 and intraNetWare 4.11. Netware 4.10 went out of support earlier so is covered over here.

Contents

Virtualisation - KVM

It runs on KVM! I made a few unsuccessful attempts at it before finally figuring out it was the SPICE display that was causing it to crash (though goodness knows why). Turns out if you change the display type to VNC it all works just fine!

To see the full installation process documented with an excruciatingly large number of screenshots, see the Installing NetWare 4.11 in KVM page. There are also screenshots of me figuring out how to install the following stuff that comes with IntraNetWare:

These aren't really written as tutorials for other people to follow (they could probably do with more detail in some places and less screenshots in others) but more to show whats involved in installing the stuff, what the process looks like, and a record of how I set my NetWare server up in case I should need to do so again later.

Useful Information

Included Products

NetWare 4.11 bundles a few products that were previously distributed or sold separately. This includes:

Documentation

Screenshots

Minimum Patches

These are the minimum patches Novell recommends applying as a baseline (as of 5 December 2000). Note that a number of usenet posts (such as this one) advise against installing anything higher than SP6a on the Small Business Edition. You can grab SP6a here: iwsp6a.exe, Readme

2000-11-13 NW4SP9.EXE Readme NetWare 4.11/4.2 Support Pack 9

Additional Patches

These were the other patches up on the Novell support site on 13 November 2006. You may wish to browse the readme files to see if there are any worth applying. Some of the later ones certainly will be more recent than whats on the minimum patch list above.

The patches here are divided into two tables - those for intraNetWare 4.11 and those for just NetWare 4.11. The contents of the tables came from support.novell.com but there may well be erors such as a few intraNetWare patches listed under NetWare 4.11. So it probably pays to check both tables and always consult the readme regardless of the description, filename or which table the patch is in.
