I just talked to tech support about this issue.  The problem
is that under Windows 95 you need to have a line in your 

\ingres\files\user

file for every user who will be using OpenROAD and netu.
If you look at the file, you will see that the format is something
like:

emy!0!0!100025
ingres!0!0!100025
$ingres!0!0!100025
system!0!0!100025

The top line is my login, and the rest you get as a default with the
installation.  You will need to add a line for each distinct Windows95
login.  If you aren't actually logging into Windows95 (because you cancel
the login popup and log in as a conceptual "non user"), you need a line like:

!0!0!100025

(all the information but with no user)  Note that you should check the
format of your own user file--this one is from my NT installation, so I
can't guarantee that Windows95 is identical.  I think it is, but to be safe,
just use your own file as a template.
