Well a bit to late it seems to be and I cannot use exactly those versions but 
I'll report here what I was able to test:

A) The build commands
    sed -i -e "s;static int get_argument;int get_argument;" \
        lib/ncplib.c &&
    sed -i -e "s;static void add_string;void add_string;" \
        util/pserver.c &&
    sed -i -e "s;static void add_string;void add_string;" \
        util/nwpjmv.c &&

    ./configure --prefix="" --includedir=/usr/include \
        --mandir=/usr/share/man --datadir=/usr/share &&
    make &&
    make install &&
    make install-dev &&
    ln -sf /lib/libncp.so.2.3.0 libncp.so.2.3

B) The output of the configure
    ....
    Building ncpfs-2.2.6 and ipx-1.0 with following configuration options:
    kernel support:        yes
    ncpmount support:      linux-2.0, linux-2.2, linux-2.4
    NCP supported:         IPX, UDP, TCP
    NDS support:           yes
    PAM support:           no (autodetected)
    PHP support:           no (autodetected)
    Threading support:     enabled (autodetected)
    Atomic operations:     available (optimized i386)
    Versioned symbols:     yes (autodetected)
    Function sections:     yes (autodetected)
    Compile-time warnings: no
    NCP trace:             no
    NCP debug:             no
    ....

    while the following 'make' a lot of
        XXXX:nnn: Warnung: »packed« attribute ignored for field of type »XXX«
    messages are shown. I thing they can be ignored.

C) Used versions:
    Linux:              2.6.16.9
    gcc:                4.1
    glibc:              2.4
    Netware:    6.5

D) The command I used to test:
    mount.ncpfs -S <servername> \
        -A <server-ip> \
        -V /<volume> \
        -U .username.at.our.nds.context \
        -P <password> /mnt -o tcp
    The -o tcp to force the system to use tcp and not udp. The mountpoint 
showed me the content of the selected volume...

...the chapter seems to be dropped out of the book already...


Cheers
Thomas
