Hi all. I am new to this list and have a nagging question. Please help. I am running Linux Mandrake 8.0 Freq2 kernel 2.4.5-5mdk on a Pentium 200 64meg machine with 8gig HD Trident video card hooked to a vga monitor. Here is what ails my Linux machine. At work, we have a Netware 5.0 FS. I want to be able to mount a folder/directory on my Linux box from my Netware File Server because I have several folders on the File Server that I use throughout my day to day activities. I would like to save files from my Linux box to and from my home folder on the Netware box. So, I went out and installed ncpfs and ipxutils from the 2 cd set. Read the complicated HOWTO. I also made sure to first go out on the web and search on rpmfind (I think) the dependencies needed before I could run these packages. So, I installed those dependencies (one really - I had the rest) before installing the two other packages. Once the packages were installed, I went into Linuxconf and chose to make IPX enabled with auto configure on everything cause I am lazy. :) Then I went to my prompt and typed slist and got Server (0x8847) not found in ncp_open. So, then I typed ipx_configure --auto off (I forgot those two commands at the moment but maybe that is because of my frustration at this point :) Then I typed ipx_interface delall and then ipx_interface add -p eth0 802.2 Same thing/error happened when I typed slist. I thought maybe I need to put the IPX HEX network address of the Netware File Server after 802.2 and when I do I get unrecognizable network address error (something like this). I have also tried the internal network address to no avail also. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG! UGH! I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ipxutils and the ncpfs packages to no avail. I have gone into Linuxconf and switched everything back to the way it was before I started this whole adventure. I have done an ipxdump and I see something on my monitor - not legible but packet traffic is occurring and 802.2 is identified. So, I have tried and tried and tried and now I am turning to you all for help. I have installed ipxutils 2.2.0.18.a-3mdk and ncpfs of the same version. Should I maybe try an older version of these packs? Is my kernel too recent? I searched on Google.com and a lot of people have been complaining about this issue but I do not see solutions. Is there any? Is Mandrake doing anything to respond to this problem? My Netware box is configured with one physical NIC but has two protocols...IPX/SPX and TCP/IP TCP/IP is on EtherII and IPX/SPX is on 802.2 the internal network is currently mapped to the ETHERII device Your help is much appreciated and I am thankful for it. I hope this was not too long but, I wanted to give as much info as I know because I really need to get this done.
