After loading the Novell Client 3.2.0.0, the following message appears when loading the Arev 3.01 application : 'Linear Hash IPX Driver - REVMEDIA open error FS466 Unable to open boot media map'.
The application runs Ok with the Novell Client 3.1.0.0. The Arev network driver installed is IPX 1.5.
Please help.

Sedick,
You'll probably get several responses to this-
Novell's client versions 3.2 and above are not compatible with Arev. Revelation Technologies has not resolved the problems with Novell. Their answer to your problem is to move BACK the Novell client version to one that is compatible, such as 3.02.
Yup, it's definitely a hack way to do business, considering so many companies depend on this software. Many of us have hundreds of users and large companies depending on this older piece of software, and Novell and other vendors can't afford to continue to try and support some of these legacy apps. Your best bet is to get into the '90s and switch to a different database.
