(added) Hi, NCP and ncpfs can actually run over UDP and TCP too, so there is no hard IPX dependency. Saying that, I think that ncpfs fully deserves being removed/obsoleted. It is pretty hard to find hardware on which NetWare can still run, most of distributions do not ship userspace tools anymore, and as far as I can tell there are zero users. So feel free to go ahead and do what you got to do... Thanks, Petr P.S.: Sorry if you get it multiple times.
