From reading the KB article, I would answer your Q "Yes" - but I don't have 
experience with it first hand. 

In addressing your scenario, I presume you have a folder on the server 
called USERS (or the like) and all user folders under it.  You're using 
Novell to map to \\server\USERS\%USERNAME% right?  And you want to make an 
NT share *for each user* ala \\NTServer\%USERNAME%$ ?  Why?  Hopefully I'm 
misunderstanding you. 

Set up ONE share: \\NTServer\USERS and use NTFS security underneath to allow 
access to the appropriate folders.  With Win2K clients, you can map a drive 
to \\NTServer\USERS\%USERNAME% and your pre-Win2K clients, you simply map to 
\\NTServer\USERS and they'll have to manually open their folder. 

Then -- move to Win2K.  :)
