I can connect to That's OK; you can't mount a Netware drive using FreeBSD unless you have an NFS module loaded on the server. I'm not sure exactly what the problems with implementing Netware support are, but I'd suspect that Novell aren't as open with the protocol spec. as they would need to be. > my FreeBSD machine using Windows for Workgroups, and pcnfs.

Any hints, comments, > or suggestions could lower my work-hours considerably. Well, if money's not a problem, just buy an NFS NLM for the server. Failing that, I guess you'd be best off asking Terry about the specifics of the problem. (terry@cs.weber.edu) > Jeffrey D.
