Yes, I have my Mandrake5.3 configured as a Novell CLIENT...but kernel 2.0.x
doesn't support mapping to a individual Novell directories...just the server
or the first volume(not real sure) but I had read that the 2.2.x kernel did
support mapping directly to a directory so after upgrading I was able to map
say my home directory...read the man pages on nwclient, ncpmount. There is a
file you keep in your home directory that will contain the path to the
remote Novell directory and the user name you wish to login as plus the
option for the password but it is plain text and therefore a bit
unsecure...the system will prompt you for a password if none is given...also
since Linux is case sensitive and Novell is not I had to mount just the
server work my way down the directories taking careful notes on the exact
spelling of the path getting the case right otherwise the mounting won't
work. I also went to Caldera's site and got a little info and found were to
download the lastest client files. I wish I could be a tad more specific but
I'm at home and this work was at my job...I look it tomorrow and see if I
can come up with some more info!!!

I am wondering if anybody out there has gotten their Linux workstation
configured as an IPX client.  I do not want to be a server, just a client.
Any help in pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

[newbie] v6.0 ISO Image

[Craig Burlingame]

Can we expect the .iso image to be available soon for Mandrake v6.0?  I tried pulling 
down the various directories, but it seems WinDoze screws up the names and stuff.

Thanks for any info

[newbie] Mandrake 6.0

[Craig Burlingame]

Sorry if I am repeating anything that's been asked before, but I've been without 
e-mail for a few days.  Anyway my question is this.  When is Mandrake 6.0 coming out, 
and will there be an ISO9660 image available when it does?  I appreciate any 
information anybody can give me in regards to this question.

[newbie] PCMCIA Problem

[Craig Burlingame]

I have just updated the kernel to version 2.2.5.  I followed the directions on the web 
site and it boots fine except for one thing.  As the list of services starting scrolls 
by, it fails to start eth0 since it loads before the pcmcia services start.  

Where can I change the order of how the services start?

Thanks for any help anybody can give me.

[newbie] NUM Lock Problem

[Craig Burlingame]

I have just installed Linux-Mandrake for the first time.  I put it on my Thinkpad 
760ED and everything works great.  Except..  Every time I boot up, my num lock is 
on and when I try to login in, if the login id uses any keys that fall in the numeric 
keypad area, I get numbers instead of letters.

If anybody can help this rookie out I'd greatly appreciate it.

TIA,
Craig
