On Netware servers, you can toggle this behaviour with
"SET REPLY TO GET NEAREST SERVER = ON|OFF"
(and you better not turn that off for *all* servers). If lwared doesn't
yet have such an option (I don't know either way), it should get it. It
should be configurable which servers act as login servers.

On the other hand, this is *exactly* what Novell servers do - "not logged
in" connections (read-only access to the SYS:LOGIN directory *only*) count
to the limit.
This doesn't matter if you can get at LOGIN.EXE without getting at the
server first.
