Ik heb ff op de support connection cd gekeken, maar ik kon dat document niet op de site vinden. Ik kan ook niet zo snel ff wat webruimte creeren, dus paste ik het maar hier neer, sorry voor de grootte:

Cause: During NWIP installation, the following line is added to AUTOEXEC.NCF:
load NWIP name=NWIP_1
This will load NWIP.NLM, which auto loads PKERNEL.NLM, and will attempt to contact a DSS, as per the NWIP configuration. The problem is that if NWIP looks for DSS information on the local server (if NWIP and DSS are running on the same server), DSS will not be loaded yet. It will get loaded later, when the AUTOEXEC.NCF gets to the UNISTART.NCF file. If NWIP has a secondary entry for "preferred DSSes" that refers to another server, these errors may not occur.
The NWIP installation configures the server this way because the NWIP domain (after the first installation) should already have an existing DSS server in the NWIP domain.

Fix: Installing NWIP
To avoid these error messages when installing NetWare/IP, don''t start the NetWare/IP server during the installation. Configure NWIP, but don''t start the server. Exit NWIPCFG, the NetWare IP configuration utility, and load UNICON to set up the DSS server.

The NWIP server is its own preferred DSS.
1) UNISTOP (verify that all NLMs unloaded successfully. If they did not, unload them manually until they are all out of memory.
2) remove the following line from AUTOEXEC.NCF:
load NWIP name=NWIP_1
3) in INETCFG, under Boards, delete NWIP_1
4) REINITIALIZE SYSTEM
5) edit UNISTART.NCF . If the line "load NWIP" is not there, add it right after the line "load DSS". If it is there, make sure that NWIP
loads right after "load DSS".
6) UNISTART
7) load MONITOR, LAN/WAN information, verify that NWIP virtual board shows up
If there is another DSS server available, set that server as one of the Preferred DSSes in UNICON, Manage Services, NetWare/IP, Configure NetWare/IP Server, Preferred DSSes.
