Hi all,

We have a Unixware 1.0 host  and are trying to 'mount'
NW 3.11 and 3.12 server  filesystems using the SPX
based connection method from the command line - 
not through Desktop.

We login using 'nwlogin' and then try to access the
filesystems through /.NetWare/.....  paths.

It does not seem to work _reliably_.  The problems
we have seen are:

   *  The connection hangs.  We can cd only to 
        /.Netware.  We cannot see any other subdirectories
        (these are supposed to be servers).  Attempts to
       cd to subdirectories hang.

   *  If we use 'nwvolumes'  it shows  a volume on 
       a 'connected' server.  Also, if we use 'slist' we can
       see all NW servers - we just can't get to their directories.

   *  Occasionally, we nwlogout and try to nwlogin
       again and find ourselves still connected! 

Is there more info on using this facility on the 
command line?

This is probably when "nucamd" has core-dumped.
ps -ef |grep nuc should reveal 
/usr/sbin/nucmessaged
/usr/sbin/nucam_unmountd -i 6000
/usr/sbin/nucamd

if nucamd is missing, just restart it as root, even though it is suid :-(

Or get ftp.univel.com:Updates/nsupdt.tar
