Arev & nlm application working with Dos & win95 clients, but not with nt4 client. (Networking Products)

One of our clients is having a problem getting an NT workstation to run their arev application.
The application loads using a dos or win95 client, and althought the NT client can load the sysprog account( and the filehandles indicate that the nlm is being used) the other application will not load.
The message is 'Unable to open boot media'
They assure me that the application path is correct and it does work using the same batch file and novell user, under win95.
Their configuration is as follows.
Novell server 4.11 running NLM 1.12
Nt4 workstation with the Novell Client 32.
Config.Nt has files set to 150.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks Sam

Sam,
Make sure that the frame type is set explicitly, not to auto, on the non-functional machine. Also, make sure the files parameter is set for the appropriate DOS session that you are running, since NT allows you to set separate autoexec/config files for each DOS box you run. Make sure the TSR is being run within the DOS session, and with the /p parameter. Also, double-check that the NLM is running (that's a longshot, I know, but I just got off the phone with someone where that happened, so…)

Scott,
Hey,don't worry about asking if the NLM is started, It was the first question I asked them!.
I will get them to check that the frame type is specified, as i did check that the Config.nt they are pointing to does have the correct FILES setting.
Anyway I will let you know.
Thanks again

Seen this before. Make sure they are running Service Pack 3 on NT Workstation 4.

Tony,
Thanks for the tip.
It has now sorted itself out, The client had installed SP3 for on the workstation but had re-installed the wrong version of the Novell Client 32.
After Installing the NT4 version of the Client 32 everything is now working fine.
Thanks again

Sam et al
I have this problem with OI 3.4.1 and NLM 1.5 where the Client PCs run
Novell Client for NT Workstation
I will check that SP3 is loaded and that the correct frametype is
selected in the Client. What version of the Novell Client should be loaded?
Since I have ServerOnly=True in Revparam they get an FS477 which suggests that the Clients cannot see the NLMs on the server.
Thanks
