NLICLEAR.NLM

NLICLEAR.NLM:  Not-Logged-In CLEAR 

Why use NLICLEAR?

NLICLEAR is an NLM which deletes or "clears" unauthenticated user
connections for single-user server licenses.  Unauthenticated
connections cannot be reused until they are cleared.  NLICLEAR
allows you to reuse idle connections by periodically deleting them.

Unauthenticated user connections occur when:

þ     A user specifies a login name after a LOGIN or ATTACH
      command, but does not enter a password to complete the
      login procedure.

þ     A user logs out without logging in elsewhere.

þ     The shell establishes a connection with the file server, but
      no login is attempted.

In these cases, the connection is made to the server, but no 
authentication is granted to the user except to complete the 
login or to login elsewhere.

  
To implement NLICLEAR.NLM use the following command format and 
parameters:

Command format

LOAD [path] NLICLEAR [parameter...]

Command parameters

Replace path with a full path to the directory containing the
NLICLEAR module.  Begin with a DOS drive letter or a NetWare
volume name.  If you do not specify a path, the operating system
looks for NLICLEAR in SYS:SYSTEM.  (Use SEARCH to set up
additional paths for automatic searching.)

Replace parameter with one or more of the following parameters.

NOTIFY

Causes a message to be written to the server console screen each
time a connection is cleared.  Default: No notification.

POLL=number

Sets the time (in seconds) for NLICLEAR to wait between checks
of the user connection table.  The number of seconds can be
between 30 and 3600.  Default: 60 seconds
