I do not : have the resources to buy Netwar/NFS (or equiv.). No. But then, why are they Novell-clients if you don't have Netware ? You could probably consider samba - a NetBIOS server that runs on FreeBSD. Your Novell-clients don't have to be Novell-clients, just "I can do NetBIOS over TCP"-clients. If they can't run NetBIOS over TCP but run dos, you can get the Clarkson University TCP suite (it's free) and the XFS package (also free). They'll do ftp, telnet, rlogin, NFS, lpr etc. I don't know about XFS, but last time I looked at the CUTCP code, it seemed to have MAC support. -- Brian <brian@awfulhak.demon.co.uk> Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
