Novell Netware

I just finished writing Novell Netware support for Full Spectrum Backup. It was fun - ncpmount is very easy to use on Linux. I ended up storing credentials, and having the front-end invoke a shell script (also run by rc.local on boot) - and voila, it actually works!

Novell did complicate matters with their website. The evaluation version of Netware was very helpful. Finding it on their site - ouch. It's a bit like being a rat in a maze, with only the faintest hint of cheese...
