I haven't done this in years however I'm copying a quick document I wrote back when that might help. This was when I worked on Netware 5.x servers and RedHat 6.2 servers. I believe you needed the nwserver_name in your host table or DNS before this works properly.
Hope this helps. === Mounting a NetWare Volume to Linux This works great!! (yah... I said the same thing about the NT to Linux mounting but it's true!!) ncpmount -S nwserver_name -U username -b -A nwserver_name /mount_point The above does the following -S is the name of your nwserver -U is your NDS username -b turns on bindery emulation -A does DNS (UDP MODE) IP name resolution... no support for SLP /mount_point is where you want to mount your server volumes. All the server volumes will be mounted under the single mount point. You can specify a single volume if you like. Read the man page for ncpmount for directions. Also there is a module available from Caldera which allows NDS logins from Linux. I've been successful in compiling it and inserting the module into my Kernel... how to use it? Who knows. I'm sure there is documentation somewhere. (Caldera's site maybe???) I couldn't find it nor was I terribly interested as I'm moving further and further away from NetWare and more into Solaris / Linux. -A is needed. Otherwise your talking IPX/SPX. I recommend creating DNS entries though HOST tables worked just fine. === --- Hi All! I've been "google-ing" for the past hour or so, but I cannot seem to find anything on this. I would like to be able to access my NetWare 5.x and 6.x servers at work from my newly-Linixized laptop. However, I have fully removed IPX (IP-only) from our network at work, and I don't want to go back and tell my LAN Admin to reinstall it. Is there any way for me to mount my NetWare shares onto my notebook? I haven't had the client-less NetWare 6 configuration implemented yet (I'm still not quite satisifed with the security) and I still have the vast majority of our servers running 5.1 (they don't have the resources to run 6 yet).
