Status 11 on Novell 6 using psql.8.7

We have a customer that uses Novell Clustered servers, when trying run
a conversion on the data from an older version of our software the
application returns a Status 11 filename is invalid. This error
occurs on some not all of the files to be converted.

The servers are running Netware 6.0, the PSQL is v 8.7 the client OS
is Win XP. The server does have long file name support (ironically the
files that are failing are not long file names) the auto exec.ncf has
been edited to have MGRSTART and BSTART loading at or near the end of
the boot process.

The sequence is this:
sys:etc\initsys.ncf
MOUNT ALL
then at the very end of the ncf file

BSTART.NCF
MGRSTART.NCF

I am by no means a Novell person but shouldn't there be a LOAD NSS
command? I thought I read that it was native and assumed that the LOAD
NSS command would not need to be loaded but on second thought I
wondered if it should.

Secondly shouldn't the MGRSTART.ncf be loading before the BSTART.ncf?

The novell client is 4.90

any ideas?
