There is a program from OXXI that will do what you are looking for. It is 
client software for the Amiga to connect to a NOVELL server in binary 
mode. It works best under NW3.11 but will work under NW3.12 or 4.1 
(Printing services may not work). You have to use Mac name space on the 
server. I know it works, because I've used it and have it.
