Novell NetWare - CONNECTION SERVICES - GET CONNECTION NUMBER

AH = DCh

Return:
AL = logical connection number
00h if NetWare not loaded or this machine is a non-dedicated server
CX = station number in ASCII (CL = first digit)

Notes: This function is supported by NetWare 4.0+, Banyan VINES, and Alloy NTNX. Station number only unique for those PCs connected to same semaphore service. This function is called with AX=DC00h on entry by the DR DOS (up to including 7.03) command processor to retrieve the connection number. Old releases used this call only when INT 21/AX=EF03h failed. Current versions (probably since one of the Novell DOS 7 updates) attempt to retrieve the connection number from VLM (INT 2F/AX=7A20h

via GENERAL:
0043h/0006h/0001h and CONN: 0010h/0007h/000Dh) first.
The connection number is only trusted, however, when CF is clear on
return.
