Netware users can connect to Linux three ways, - use 'marsnw' netware daemon on Linux, emulates Netware 3.10 - use Calderas Netware on Linux, that costs money, normal Novell licences - add Micro$oft networking to your Netware users and use Samba to connect to Linux. If they allready are Netware users I fail too see reason to mount Novell volumes to Linux, unless you want to give Linux-Users access to Netware. -- Lauri Tischler, Network Admin Tel: +358-9-47846331 * Mouse movement detected * Fax: +358-9-47846500 * Reboot Windows to activate changes * Mobile: +358-40-5569010 EMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
