If I remember right there was a Netware "Net" dos command, which allowed you to create batches...
I can't recall the name of it though...

-------------John uppsed and sent this to me------------- Thanks for your reply.
This is indeed a possibility. However the idea is to migrate all the data as quickly as possible and I'm not sure if it can be done with your solution.
There are a huge amount of user accounts to migrate and I just can't create the directories, the unix accounts and above all keep the file permissions by hand. I'm all but a Netware expert so I don't know if there is any way to script it (in that case my probelm is solved).
In fact I'm looking for utilities like the ones provided by Microsoft in the Windows Services for Netware (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/techinfo/overview/sfnmig.mspx)
Thanks

Hello
I'd like to migrate a Novell environment (mostly some file servers) to a Linux one (probably SuSe for many reasons).
I was wondering if there were any tool that allow me to do that. I've read some information about some NetWare services for SuSe and OES, but the idea is to completely get rid of the NetWare environment (ie. Servers and clients).
Of course Novell is not very verbose about that...
Okay, The way I've done it in the past was to simulate the current Netware file shares on linux server... In this way I could turn of the old servers, and continue with a smooth (read very slow) conversion.
Basically, all new systems access files via samba, all old ones via Netware..
Is that something like what you are looking for?
