How to mount novell share?

Solution 1:

From the directions here,

EXAMPLE:

1) Verify the installation of ncpfs:

linux~# rpm -q
ncpfs-2.6.6-7

2) Create a mountpoint for the server

linux~# mkdir /mnt/myserver

3) Create a group to assign the filerights to

linux~# groupadd nwaccess

4) Assign users to the defined group

linux~# usermod -G nwaccess veerh01

5) Create a password file

linux~# echo myserver/myuser.location.nds:mypassword >/etc/ncp-pass
linux~# chmod 600 /etc/ncp-pass

6) create a mount line in /etc/fstab - that is edit /etc/fstab with your favorite editor and add a line to it with the following definitions:

<server/user> <mountpoint> ncp uid=root,gid=<group>,mode=660,owner=root,A=<server>,passwdfile=/etc/ncp-pass     0 0

For the example described above it becomes:

myserver/myuser.location.nds /mnt/myserver ncp uid=root,group=nwaccess,mode=660,owner=root,A=myserver,passwdfile=/etc/ncp-pass 0 0
