I would like to know if it's possible to mount any ms-dos partition in Novell 5.0. Thanks

You don't Mount DOS partitions under Netware. A DOS partition is Mounted (made available) when the Server was started, generally using MS-DOS as the boot. A DOS partition is available to Netware once the Server has completed it's bootup process. At this point you can write to and read from any DOS partition from the console for that Server.

Thanks for your quick responce,but one last question: How do i access the dos partition in novell? Example: i have a C: and a D: on 2 different hard drive that are in the novell server.How can i access it via the console?

The best way is to load an NLM called Toolbox. Once Toolbox is loaded it gives you the ability to use DOS commands from the Servers console prompt. Type in this command @ the Server console to load Toolbox. Load Toolbox.nlm

I already have that toolbox,but what i need to know is how do i access my C: and D: drive with that toolbox.And if i can share those partition.

Toolbox is just an interface program that allows you to issue DOS commands from the Server Console. If you type in "Tools /?" (without the quote marks) @ the Server Console it will display the DOS commands that can be used from the Console prompt. Like CD, MD, DIR, etc.. If you wanted to do a directory of the C:\ of the HDD in the Server you would just type Dir C:\ from the Console. The DOS partition on your Server is not generally "shared" with anyone. But I would not bet against a Freeware program out there somewhere that allows you to do this.

When you use Novell 6 you can mount the DOS partition and use it from a workstation with the command: LOAD DOSFAT.NSS This works fine to create a backup of this partition (on CD or so).
