My client just installed a Win2k SP3 workstation for the first time, and Arev is running twice a slow as a Windows 98 workstation. They have Novell 4.11 Sp8.0a, using IPX drive 1.50, novell client 4.83 Sp1 with the frame type entered.
What else are we missing.

Hi Dave;
Check the Autoexec.nt file and see if these two lines are there:
1 - %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16
2 - %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx
If they are there then rem them out. Do a COLD reboot of the w\s.
Hope this helped

I've alredy faced it too.
I think that this problem is still unsolved.
Let us wait.

Check the vipx.exe version that is on your machine. I use the April 16 version that I have no problems with the speed of the application. We are on Novell 6 though.

I have an XP machine on Novell 5.0 with appropriate clients, vipx, frame types etc. etc. The performance on Arev is excruciatingly (← is that spelt correctly?) slow.
After many many hours of trying to solve the problem with many of the solutions offered on this site, I concluded that some PCs (in this case mine) will just not operate even close to adequate in this environment.
I hope this is not the case for you

joed has the answer!!!, i tried this and went from a three minute login to a 30sec, i am running windows 2000 and an XP using novell client 4.83 sp1, on a novell server 4.11 and 4.2,
using a program called comsense which is written in revelation 3.11, i also teak the short cut pif and moved the idle sensivity to 80%. This can be found in the online discussion, you just have to search for it, the only thing left to debug are those funny screens you get when you use windows applications and revelation together, seems to happen in ms-word mostly.
