Netware Client for Mandrakelinux
I have been looking for a few days now for a Netware Client that will work with Mandrakelinux. I've downloaded a number of clients but they don't work or will not install.

NCPFS
I was able to locate ncpfs. Downloaded then ./configure and then make install install-dev
From there I don't have a clue. Everything seemed to run ok. From that point I thought that I could run nwclient and something would happen. Sure was wrong there. Any suggestions are requested and mucho appreciated. Thanks
If nothing ELSE happened you would at least
see an error message (if you ran it from a terminal,
that is, rather than double-clicking it ;}) ... it's NOT
a GUI tool, you know ...

Tinkster and Jax8:
Thanks very much for your responses. I did attempt to run nwclient from a konsole - no errors but no activity.
No output is good output??
The file that I downloaded was ncpfs-2.2.5.tar.gz This is why I configured it.
When I run nwclient in the konsole this is what appears: usage: nwclient MY_ADDR SERVER_ADDR
Could this be right and I need to add arguments?
Perhaps I should download ncpfs-2.2.4.rpm from pbone. I'm game.

No output in this scenario is a bit odd ...
You should get a failure message of sorts,
something like command not found :) since there
IS no such command in the ncputils-suite.
