Problem

Solutions: In Novell's Filer Utility, a directory name can be created using a maximum of 14 characters (at DOS the limit is 8, even on a network drive). However, when listing the directories at DOS, only the first eight characters will appear. If a user tries to change to the directory using only the first 8 characters, an error may occur. The full 14 characters should be used to change to that directory. Also, the only way to remove that directory is through the filer utility. DOS will not recognize the 14 character name when trying to remove the directory.
