How would I go about doing this? 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. :-) -- - Jordan Hubbard President, FreeBSD Project
