Apparently, this was a thing.

Can someone who knows how to do NetWare things make a video of what this experience is like?
Well, the original form - ie. in the DOS client - is just a specific beep via PC Speaker...

Yes, yes. But what kind of beep? This is very important information.
The windows client plays a WAV file. I don't know what OS/2 does. I don't think the Mac client runs login scripts so no phasers there.
If you want more NetWare info, I've accumulated a pile of screenshots and notes while exploring it in depth several months back including the clients for DOS, Windows 3.x, 9x, NT/2000/XP, OS/2 and MacOS. Plus network booting which I discussed here.
Glorious phasers! Thank you for sharing. 😀
Was this anyhow related to Netware's NetWars game?
I played that on Novell DOS moons ago! 😊

Not that I know of though I've never played NetWars (seems to only come with Personal NetWare or NetWare Lite - NetWare 3.11-4.11 doesn't include it as far as I can tell). So I guess its just a sound that the NetWare login script processor (on windows at least) can play - I guess to indicate errors or that the login script has finished running. Or perhaps just for fun.
Well, it wasn’t in the Novell certification tests questions but I do remember playing with these sound during setup of the Netware.

Here is the sound of firing four phasers with NetWare's LOGIN.EXE v3.76 (circa 1994) captured in DOSBox.
That was definitely worth all the trouble. Thank you, ripsaw8080. 😀
