ncpfs

Web	www.hacktoolrepository.com

ncpfs

This is ncpfs, a free NetWare client filesystem for Linux. Besides some little utilities it also contains nprint, which enables you to print on NetWare print queues. The opposite side, pserver, is also provided.

ncpfs works with NetWare versions 3.x and following. It does NOT work with NetWare version 2.x. Some of the NetWare look-alikes, such as CD-ROM servers WinNT 3.51 Server are also NOT supported. This restriction comes from the fact that ncpfs relies heavily on the name space facilities NetWare supports since version 3. When you want to mount volumes that have been exported by mars_nwe, you have to activate the name space calls in mars_nwe's config.h file, although probably it's more clever to use nfs between two Linux machines.

The user-space utilities such as nprint and the bindery utils should work with all versions of NetWare.

If you get the error:

ncpm_common.c: In function "process_connection":
ncpm_common.c:1229: error: expected expression before "struct"
make[1]: *** [ncpm_common.o] Error 1

You will need to add the following line in sutil/ncpm_common.c

#include <stddef.h>

On systems with gcc version 4, you will get the error message:
ncplib.c:2424: error: invalid storage class for function get_argument
You will need to remove the static declaration from the get_argument function. The function declaration should thus be:
int get_argument(int arg_no, const char **target) {
or use the following command:
sed -i "s/static int get_argument/int get_argument/g" lib/ncplib.c

On systems with gcc version 4, you will get the error message:

pserver.c: In function "build_command":
pserver.c:157: error: invalid storage class for function "add_string"
make[1]: *** [pserver.o] Error 1

Use the patch above or the install script to move the add_string function outside the function build_command.
