I have used mars_nwe under Whitebox 3 (using the kernel-unsuppoted
package) ... it works, but is not maintained, requires IPX (not
supported under CentOS 4 without custom kernel) and the DOS NW admin
tools. If you have a NW 3.12 server you should have the DOS management
tools to get it working.
It's not terribly hard to get working with plenty of comments in the
config file. We were going to use it to replace a DOS networking
solution we were using after SAMBA and MS-CLIENT had stability problems
but ended up scrapping both and keeping with what we were using (better
the devil you know).
