The following errors may be displayed on the 6200 or 6300 Series Computer,
when a Novell connection is attempted:
Error Description
Lnnn Connection to host failed. nnn is one of the following:
100 Network drive did not mount successfully. Verify the network connection and that a
NORAND login name exists.

102 Could not allocate needed memory.
Norand Utilities Internals
The Norand Utilities program creates a NET.CFG file on the RAM drive. The
NET.CFG file is not erased. It is left on the RAM drive so that it may be used by
applications.
NRInet
NRInet is a protocol that performs a NORAND file transfer session over TCP/IP
Ethernet. It is supported by the Norand 6920 Communications Server. See the
Norand Utilities paragraph in Section 5 for a description of a NORAND file
transfer session and for a list of errors that may be displayed when an NRInet
session is attempted.
Setup
1. Create a download include file, as described in the preceding paragraphs,
and place it in the download directory of the 6920 Communications Server.
2. Optionally, configure a DHCP server to provide some or all of the
information required by the HHC, including the IP addresses of the client,
router, and subnet mask. Any information not provided by DHCP must be
entered manually by the user on the HHC. A DHCP server can also
provide a domain name and IP addresses of domain name servers, which
allows the HHC user to enter a host name rather than an IP address. If
the SERVER_NAME field on the HHC is left blank, a connection to the
name Norand6920" is attempted, as a default.
Norand Utilities Internals
Version 2.xx of the Norand Utilities program creates NET.CFG and PCTCP.INI
files on the RAM drive. The NET.CFG and PCTCP.INI files are not erased, so
they may be used by applications. For a description of the contents of these files,
see the Norand Utilities paragraph in Section 5.
TFTP
TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) is a standard TCP/IP protocol supported on
many TCP/IP servers.
Setup
1. A tftpd service must be running on a TCP/IP server.
2. Optionally, configure a DHCP server to provide some or all of the
information required by the HHC (IP addresses of the client, router, and
subnet mask). Any information not provided by DHCP must be entered
manually by the user on the HHC. A DHCP server can also provide a
domain name and IP addresses of domain name servers, which allows the
HHC user to enter a server name rather than an IP address. If the
SERVER NAME field on the HHC is left blank, a connection is attempted
to the name NorandTftp" as a default.
