- You cannot implement these calls without additional software. There are 2
- solutions. You can use the Netware C-Interface for DOS (includes library
- functions for all the password calls, only .LIB files). Or you can link
- some object code containing the password calls with your own code. This
- object code can be obtained from Novell, or I can send it to you if you
- like. We got it from Novell.
- BTW, what kind of software are you writing using these calls? We made
- some tools to create/delete/update groups of students on our Novell
- servers.
- I hope this helps,
