I think you only need to configure ep0f1. > What I have learned: (have a desktop connected to Netware 4-something server, and damn it, [after a LONG struggle] it just works) Figure out which frames to use! f0-f3 are for different protocols, AFIK as: f0=ETHER_II f1=ETHER_8023 f2=ETHER_8022 f3=ETHER_SNAP hopefully, whoever admins the novell box knows which protocols to use. if not . . . err . . . let's not think about that. Then, get the ipx routing addresses from self-same sysadmin for the protocols you wish to use: the lines in my /etc/rc.conf look like: ifconfig_xl0f2_ipx="ipx 0x000CFFEE" ifconfig_xl0f3_ipx="ipx 0x000C0FFE" have ipxrouted enabled (see /etc/defaults/rc.conf) yes NCP and NWFS and IPX must be there, of course then you can mount (Hooray!) via mount_nwfs. good luck. -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ NEU: Mit GMX ins Internet.
