Steps to duplicate:
1. Install the Novell Client 2 for Windows (IR4) on a Windows 7 workstation
2. Install NSL 7 in STANDALONE mode, taking all the default options. Reboot.
3. At the login screen, select "Novell Login," click "Advanced Options," go to
the "script" tab and uncheck the box for "close automatically." This will
leave the login results window open so you can easily see if mappings etc were
made.
4. Login to the Novell network, and to the windows workstation.
5. The expected login results window will not appear. Right clicking on the
"red N" and selecting "Novell Connections" will show no connections.
6. Uninstall SecureLogin, reboot, and login again to the Novell network and
windows. The desktop will come up with the "login script results" window open
with the expected results visable, and "Novell Connections" will show a
connection to the server as expected.
7. Reinstall SecureLogin in eDiretory mode, reboot and login again to the
Novell network and windows. Again, the "login script results" window will be
open with the expected results visble, and "Novell Connections" will show a
connection to the server as expected.
