There is certainly not enough material to call this an FAQ, but some
|
|
questions reach me regularly. Probably the documenation is not clear
|
|
enough.

Q: I have difficulties with NetWare 4.1. What can I do?
|
|
|
|
To be honest, I do not really know. Currently my only test equipment
|
|
is a NetWare 3.11 server. You should make your 4.1 Server as
|
|
3.x-compatible as it can be. As I do not know 4.1, you are on your own
|
|
doing this.
|
|
|
|
A promising hint that has already helped some people is to switch off
|
|
packet signatures on the 4.1 server, as ncpfs does not support them.

|
|
|
Q: Does ncpfs support long file names, using the OS/2 namespace?
|
|
|
|
No. Not yet. I still have to sort out how that really works. But it should
|
|
certainly be possible.

Q: When I re-export ncpfs-mounted directories via nfs, I get messages like
|
|
'pwd: cannot get current directory', and other strange things happen to
|
|
the nfs clients. What's wrong?
|
|
|
|
When you want to export a directory via NFS, you have to do two things:
|
|
|
|
- You have to invoke mountd and nfsd with the option --re-export. On my
|
|
computer, both are invoked at system startup from the file
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet2.
|
|
|
|
- You can not export a complete NetWare server hierarchy with all volumes
|
|
under a single mount point. You have to mount a single server volume to
|
|
make it re-exportable. Invoke ncpmount with the option -V volume to do
|
|
this.

Q: When I compile ncpfs, I get a message like the following:
|
|
|
|
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/me/netware/ncpfs/kernel-1.2/src'
|
|
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I. -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -DMODULE -fomit-frame-pointer -I/home/me/netware/ncpfs/kernel-1.2 -DNCPFS_VERSION=\"0.17\" -c dir.c
|
|
dir.c:36: warning: `struct dirent' declared inside parameter list
|
|
dir.c:36: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration,
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
You try to compile the part of ncpfs that is meant for kernel 1.2.13 under
|
|
kernel 1.3.x. Please look at the Makefile and comment out the
|
|
corresponding lines.
