SYMPTOMS

If your Novell NetWare login script contains a GOTO command, processing may continue at the wrong label.

CAUSE

The labels are not being parsed correctly.

RESOLUTION

Your NetWare administrator should examine the login scripts and change the labels so that no label name is a subset of another.

MORE INFORMATION

The parsing error occurs if one label is identical to the right-most characters of another. For example, the following will be parsed incorrectly:

   WRONG_LABEL:
   GOTO LABEL
   LABEL:

In this example, the GOTO command will cause processing to jump to the line above the GOTO command, rather than the line below.
