Dan,

I can't answer all of your questions.  But I'll take a stab at the one's I
have experience with.

I don't know about Novell.

Since you're using NT workstation, the WinOS will prompt you for a
userid/password if the windows userid/password is not also an as/400
userid/password.  (In Win9*, the WinOS would only prompt for a password.
This is why it's difficult to use NetServer when Win9* are on the desktops.)

I don't know about that.

Do you mean the gui signon window or the 5250 screen?  If you mean you're
getting the gui signon each time you start a 5250 session (other than the
first one) I suspect there is a configuration change you can make in CAE.

If you mean having to sign in to each 5250 screen, then this may be
controlled both on the AS/400 and CAE.  I sign into multiple as/400's from
my PC which has W2K.  Some require me to signon to CAE and again into the
5250 sessions while others only require that I signon to CAE, then it will
sign me on automatically to the 5250 session (each time I "run the same" it
logs me on).  In none of these environments do I get the gui signin window
except when first signing into CAE.

hth,

Phil
