>Linux as an NDS (Netware Directory Services) Printer Client</H3>
<p><strong>From Phill Kenoyer on Fri, 03 Jul 1998
<br><br>
I use linux at work, but I can not print to the Netware 4.0 servers.
They are using NDS and I have found out that Linux does not have any
NDS clients. Is there a way I can print to the netware printers?
<br><br>
I know that MIS is not going to help me because the MIS manager
hates unix or something. Linux is like very bad in MIS land.

Linux maybe "very bad" in your MIS jungle -- but
out here we are find the IS guys sneaking it in behind
them M's backs at just about every turn.
<br><br>
In any event the simple solution for you is to go
get a copy of <a href="http://www.caldera.com/">Caldera</a>.
Caldera's "OpenLinux" (I forget
which release --- Standard and <em>not</em> Base, if I recall
correctly, I've copied their sales department) includes
a set of Netware bindery and NDS clients that allow you
to connect your Linux client for file and print services.
<br><br>
This particular component is not free --- it is covered
under some licenses (I think the licenses are imposed on
Caldera by their vendors). So plan on spending a couple
hundred bucks.
<br><br>
However, it is possible. I've used this --- and I recommend
Caldera for any Linux installation that's got to interoperate
with any Netware systems!
