ncpfs is only in the centosplus kernel I believe. I also found it buggy
and horribly slow. Instead, consider running Novell's Native File
Access (NFA) product on your Netware server and exporting your Netware
volumes as NFS or SMB shares. I don't think NFA is included with
Netware 5.0 (though it might be a free dowload, not sure) but I know 6.x
includes it.
