This PC is installed with Dos 6.22 Operating System. We used to connect this to our 3com Switch1100 with the dos driver provided by 3Com. The sequence of loading the 3com driver to connect to 3com Switch1100 is as follows: LSL.COM 3C90X.EXE IPXODI.COM NETX.EXE F: LOGIN This is in a batch file and when we run the batch file it will connect immediately. The problem I am facing while connect to CISCO CATALYST 2950-24 port is that If I am running the same batch file it will not connect. I have to load the LSL.COM first and port on switch to which this computer is connected will be in Green color. But When I will load 3c90x.exe immediately the port on the switch color becomes amber. I have to wait for 1 to 1.5 minutes for the port color to become green and after that if load IPXODI.COM and NETX.EXE then it will connect. I can see this because I am sitting in front of the Cisco Switch. In actual the end user will run the batch file sitting somewhere in his room and he will get a message "Novell Netware Server not Found". Why this delay in connecting to Novell Netware through Cisco Switch. The same delay is not happening while we are connecting to 3Com Switch. We need you help and guidance to sort out this problem.
