NCPFS

[Steve Kozakoff]

Sorry, GSNW is not a very common acronym, I should have been more
specific.
 
GSNW=Gateway Services For Netware
 
First Install GSNW on the Windows Server. I think it goes like this on
2000, but, I am not sure about 2003:
 
-Start the Network Properties, right click on the connection and select
Properties. 
-Click the services tab and click Add 
-Select Gateway (and Client) Services for NetWare and click OK 
-Enter the path of your Windows CD-ROM and click OK. When the file
copying has finished click Close. 
-Create the NTGATEWAY group and a user that is a member of that group
on the NetWare server using SYSCON on 3.12 servers, or NWADMIN/NETADMIN
on 4.0 or later 
-Restart the Windows Server 
-Enter the user account you created that is a member of the NTGATEWAY
group when the machine restarts. 
 
Next, this KB article should help you figure out how to setup a share
to access a Netware Volume
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;316083&sd=tech


Now you should be able to mount the Windows share that points to your
Netware Volume on your RedHat box through fstab with smbfs or
smbclient.
 
BIG SIDE NOTE: I used this as a temporary solution while migrating
Netware boxes to Windows and/or RHEL. There may be better solutions
available.

Fernando,

I looked into this sometime back, but, I never found a solution for
ncpfs on
RHEL3. To work around this issue I put a Windows 2000 server with GSNW
in
the middle.

So ... my RedHat server mounts a Windows share which provides the
gateway to
Netware. Its not an ideal solution, but it works.

Good luck.

Hi all,

Hope someone can help me...

I have a box running RedHat 8 for a long time..I have NCPFS installed
and
running. Last weekend We installed a Enterprise 3 version and I tried
to
download and install de NCPFS. The most recent NCPFS version I have
found
was installed but It is not working. When I try to start the whole
thing it
shows me a message saying the kernel version mismatch with ncpfs.o,
and
saying my kernel version os 2.4.21-32. I have search a lot using
Google
trying to find a solution for this but, so far, i have nothing. Can
someone
out there help me on this topic ?

Thanks very much in advance

Best Regards

Fernando
