Re: netware client
I use the NCPFS package from SuSE 7.1 and it works great. It supports both bindery and NDS as well as IPX and IP. Just install the RPM and issue the ncpmount command. ncpmount -A "servers DNS name" -S "servers logical name" -U "username" -P "password" "mountpoint" If you don't specify the -A option, IPX is used. If -A is specified, UDP is used. For NDS, the username has to be a full NDS username like "johnj.finance.bus.internet". If you don't specify -P you will be prompted for the password. I just put it in a script that mounts all the servers I use from our Netware 5.1 NDS tree over UDP.

RE: netware client
If all you're looking for is bindery support, take a look at the NCPFS stuff on novell's site, and also on RedHat's site (there's a link to RH from the Novell site). My experience with it is that is was a pain to set up (note that I was VERY new to linux at the time and had no other relevant experience to rely upon for this), but once it was up, it worked fine. Never had any major issues with it once it was up.

Unfortunatly development on the client has been stopped so those bugs have not been fixed, nor are the going to be fixed in the near future. The problems you are describing are the same as the problems caused by those bugs. >Aren't these the same folks who dropped retail sales without warning and later called their users who download from their site "freeloaders." With the nkfs module, the reason you are getting those unresolved symbol errors is because that module was compiled for the original kernel and the nkfs module was not included with the updated kernel. To get the nkfs module working again you will have to recompile it for the new kernel. Here is where you can grab the source to recompile it: ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/opensource/nkfs/nkfs-4.2.1.tgz just untar and uncompress it then read the readme and other documentation for compiling it. At 06/13/2001 03:16 PM we wrote - Is /usr/lib/modules/nkfs.o the place where you copied the newly compiled module? Make sure you know the full path to the module. You could even load it from the source directory if you can find there where it put the nkfs.o file. Also you could copy the nkfs file to the /lib/modules//fs/ directory then run 'depmod -a'. After that you could try: modprobe nkfs and see if the module will load. While the module for the kernel is opensourced the nwclient is not. The nwclient for Linux is still owned by novell but they have not said what their plans for it are. You best bet is to contact Novell and ask them what their plan is, becaues we don't know.

HUGE amounts of SAPs are propagated though the tree as well. Thank you very much, Matthew Carpenter ps. Is there a way to get the NWClient for Sybil?

Hey Matt, Have you tried installing the client on any distro besides one from caldera? I've switched to SuSE 7.2 PRO and am getting ready to try it out - thought you might have some experience that could help.

RE: netware client
Note, however that the nkfs module that comes with that version of the client has a debug flag set in the source code, which results in giant log files. I think I still have a copy of the source with the debug flag set to off if you want it (another member of the list sent it to me a while back).

Re: netware client
No, it doesn't work with eW3.1. At least I have not been able to get it to. It requires a module recompile for even the later eD2.4 kernel releases from Caldera. And it doesn't compile on eW.

Re: IP NetWare Client for Linux
It turnes out that NCPFS does support IP. The version that comes with SuSE 7.1 which is 2.2.0.18-5 does anyway. You just specify the DNS Name or IP Address on the command line after -A and it uses UDP instead of IPX. ncpmount -A osu-fs05.cis.okstate.edu -S OSU-FS05 -U joines.cis.evp.Okstate /osu-fs05 Jason Joines On Tuesday 17 July 2001 14:26, you wrote: > I thought that Caldera's client did this...

Re: IP NetWare Client for Linux
I thought that Caldera's client did this... Is that not the case?
Well, Novell's stance on this is that they are moving away from Mac and
Unix clients for NetWare in favor of their new initiative of Native File
Access. Effectively, this is going to mean that NetWare boxes are going to
allow SMB access to their fileservers. This is great for those of us who
use Samba and know it's strength in Unix, but it's depressing for those who
understand F&P sharing using IPX vs SMB over TCP/IP. IPX had its problems,
but it has always been lightning fast compared to it's SMB brother, at
least when compared to an NT server. I haven't compared Linux to NetWare
yet. We'll have to see how this turns out.

I've had good results with the ipxutils and ncpfs packages. Check
freshmeat.net and rpmfind.net. These work well with NetWare 4.11, I'm
not sure about 5.x, but they may be worth a try. There are a couple of
GUI-type frontends available too, but I don't know much about them, as I
just use CLI.
