Is it possible to authenticate my Linux box against Netware 5.1 server running NDS only (without eDirectory)?

What are you trying to achieve? -----------------------------------------------------

Yes, you can.

First, you need ncp-utils and the kernel must have been enabled to support ipx networking. If not, you should recompile it enabling that feature. Then create a mount point for each volume and enable "ipx network" for the network interface card (see ifconfig manual pages). After this, take a look to the ncp-mount man pages. If I remember well, it was:

ncp-mount S=server U=username P=password V=volume mountponit

Bytes!
