Hi All,

I'd like to map a drive from my novell file server on a freebsdi unix
box. How would I go about doing this?

Also, What security problems should I be concerned about, and how would
I pulg the holes?

Thanks
Kevin.

P.S. Please e-mail a responce.

Either buy the NFS NLM from Novell, which will allow you to NFS mount
your Novell volumes, or buy the Netcon software (see
http://www.freebsd.org/commercial.html) which will allow you to turn the
FreeBSD box into both a Novell server and client. We use it here and it
works pretty well, though the IPX-over-IP encapsulation support (their
WINSOCK.DLL replacement) seems a bit ropey. Not an issue in your case
since you didn't say you were trying to gateway a whole network of
Novell clients to the Internet. :-)
