Dear Listmembers,
according to the attached mail of Petr Vandrovec my experience with ncpfs is
in accordance with what I should expect. Now, there are two suggestions from
Petr someone on the list might know to help me with:
1.) is there a way to compile ncpfs as a 64Bit program (i. e. create a
64-Bit rpm)
2.) did anybody compile a 2.4.20rcxx kenel on Sparc (Mr. Kukuk?)
According to the answer from Petr (see below)  the current ncpfs package
makes more or less no sense on sparc 64. Any ideas / suggestions are highly
appreciated.

Many many thanks for your help in advance,
take care



Dieter Jurzitza
