Norton ghost should work for anything on HD.

No, Norton Ghost is NOT just for any kind of OS type on any harddisk, you definitely need Norton Ghost for Netware, which is specialized for cloning netware partitions.
The "normal" Norton Ghost lacks this possibility!

I am also looking for Ghost for Netware, but even resellers have difficulties to get this product.

About cloning netware partitions:

I think a _good_ (and free! ;-) ) solution is to use a mini-linux system to clone the partition with the linux "dd" command.
This can copy "raw-data" sectors/tracks to any device like another harddisk or pre-mounted directory on an other linux-box.
Preferably you can parse this throug linux-tar to archive the destination file.
In case of servere problems, or just if you want to restore the cloned netware partition, simply boot the mini-linux OS and use "dd" again to restore the original (working) filesystem for netware!

Success...

I have also been looking for Norton Ghost for Netware. Am not having much success, even on Symantec's site. But, I have found a product called ServerMagic which seems like it might be a good alternative.
