That's how we mount our 4 or 5 Netware drives on all our UN*X boxes at Walnut Creek. It's not perfect, but there's no other way I know to do it :-( >3) Print Services. A netware aware lpd would be useful. Most important: >Should be one which could print from Unix to Netware AND vice-versa. I think that TCP/IP for Netware has lpd support in it. I know I've printed from my UN*X box to a Netware queue, and I believe that there is even support for going the other way (i.e. send jobs from a Netware queue to a UN*X printer). Gary
