Thanks

Nope, not with IPX - at least as far as I knw. And IPX is a DEAD protocol.

You could use Netware Native File System and access the Netware box either by NFS, CIFS or AFP. All are supported by that product - It requires eDirectory though...

Good Luck!

if you wanna look into it, try getting something called NCS. it's apparently the file-system and protocol that Novell Netware volumes use. i know this because it was an option in my debian linux installation on my whopping 180 MHz PC :cD but i haven't tried it myself.
