AREV 2.12 over Novell 4.11 (AREV Specific)

Our configuration:
AREV 2.12
Network: Novell 4.1.1
Client 32
Problem: Link list errors, transaction cannot be properly flushed.
We have experienced similar problems when a virus scanner would kick in while users would work in AREV. Could it be the transaction tracking setting of the Novell network. Does it need to be turned off, or can we change the settings? Do we need to get specific patches to use AREV on a Novell network? If yes, could you please indicate which ones?
Sorry for all the questions. Thank you in advance for your help.

You should not run virus scanners on rev files.

Disable TTS on all Rev files.
You should have all the patches, esp the turbo fat fix.

I see that, again, no one is mentioning the fact that all AREVs before 3.12 have a SELECT bug that shows up sometimes; mostly with keys of 4+ parts and files of 50K+ records. Let's hope that not your case!
You should also turn caching off on Win95 Workstations (yes, it's a drag, but the outcome is more painful), and remove or reduce the packet burst rate.

Larry,
Someone might have, if missing records was the problem, not corrupted link lists. You know the problem posted has nothing to do with the select bug. Why are you scaring people? That's my job!
