Environment

Novell eDirectory 8.7.3 for NetWare 6.5
SecretStore 3.3

Situation

Installed SecretStore on Netware 6.5 and SSNCP.NLM won't stay loaded.

After loading ssncp.nlm it exits with the following error(s) written to the logger screen:

SSNCP.NLM: Seting Up the NCP Service Failed [-1]!!
SSNCP.NLM: SecretStore Plugin Service Unloaded
Error: -803

Resolution

The root cause of the issue is the load order ofSSNCP.NLM.

When NLDAP.NLM is loaded from the autoexec.ncf, it auto loads LSSS.NLM, which auto loads SSS.NLM.

After SSS.NLM is loaded, you can NOT load SSNCP.NLM.

Moving the load statement of SSNCP.NLM before NLDAP.NLM is loaded should resolve the problem.

Do the following in the autoexec.ncf.

Right above the statement for NLDAP.NLM, put the following:

#- Manually moved SecretStore load statements here
LOAD NICISDI.XLM s
LOAD SASDFM.XLM
LOAD SSNCP.NLM
# -End move of SecretStore load statements

LOAD NDLAP.NLM
