Try installing the kernel-unsupported module. Both ncpfs.o and ipx.o (should you still require it) are in that module, at least for CentOS 3.x--haven't looked at 4.0 yet myself.

Oops... I meant package. Install the kernel-unsupported *package*.
"yum -y install kernel-unsupported" should do the trick.

Been there done that ... on 3.x server. There is no kernel-unsupported package for 4.0 and I looked at the .config file in the src.rpm and it's not built. I don't need IPX support, just NCP over IP ... the only downside is you have to specify the IP/DNS name for the server in the ncpmount command.
I borrowed a script from the ntfs guys and modified it to build the ncpfs module using the proper parameters. I've done some checking and it builds versions for smp and non-smp kernels correctly.
I'm to the point I'm pretty satisfied with it and can post the build script and the spec file in case anybody wants it.

HI Where might I find the build script / spce file ? I need to attach to our novell servers. Thanks -Jay

I have built a kernel package called kernel-xxxxx.unsupported.rpm for CentOS-4. It provides both the ncpfs and ipx modules.
It is in the centosplus repository: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/
(see the Readme.txt file there)
