NDS_Name in UserNDS table in NetWare 6/eDir 8.6.2 cannot be found

Hi,

We've been able to pull NDS_Name information from NDS 8.xx and eDir 8.7.3 
trees without issue.  We can't find this field under NetWare 6 SP4/eDir 
8.6.2.  When browsing the table, the last field we see 
is "naasSelectedDomain".  It looks almost as if the table is being 
truncated.  We have tried three versions of the ODBC driver, including the 
latest (2.11) from several different Desktop O/S's.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Elliott

Hi

This sounds like it might be the problem described at 
http://forgeftp.novell.com/odbc/README.html see 4.3 Maximum Number of 
Columns.

This problem is encountered with the Jet engine, but not odbcDirect.

You should try creating a userdefined table per the documentation, and query 
the userdefined table. For example, "select column from _myTable"
instead of 
"select column from UserNDS"

I hope this helps.

Susan
