For what it's worth, the Microsoft Client Services for Netware client does
NOT save the user's context information in the user's profile.  Microsoft,
in their infinite wisdom, decided to store that information in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE hive. (I have yet to understand why, or better yet why
it's still that way.)

If you want a work around, it will involve a bit of scripting.

Subject: [THIN] Novell context

Novell 4.2, Windows 2000 SP4, XP FR3

Is there a way to automatically set the Novell context for Citrix users?
The problem is that each time we put in a new server in the farm the user
will get prompted for their Novell context.  Of course everything gets saved
in the user's profile except the Novell context.  We have different contexts
so setting a default one will not work.  We use the Microsoft Client Service
for Netware instead of the Novell client due to an older DOS app.

Thanks for your help!
