 ===== Novell drive on Linux =====
-Martin Weis has made a guide on how to setup a Novell drive
+Many people need to access their Novell network drives from within Ubuntu. This page describes how to mount your Novell network drives so that you can read and write to them. It is specific for Hohenheim University section 440c.
-[[turbo>Debianinstallation#NOVELL_Verzeichnisdienste]]
+This guide is based on [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingNovellNetworkDrives|Ubuntus officel description]] and the description made by Martin Weis [[turbo>Debianinstallation#NOVELL_Verzeichnisdienste]].
+==== Install and Configure Required Packages ====
+=== Install ===
   * Install ncpfs
   * Install IPX
+Novell servers use the NCP protocol for network drives. We need to install support for this protocol by installing some packages.
+You must enable the Universe repository before installing these packages.
+Click on "System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager" to start Synaptic.\\
+Search for "ncpfs"\\
+Choose to install "ncpfs"\\
+Click "Apply" and allow it to install any required dependencies. Do the same for IPX.
+You can also use APT to install the packages
+  sudo apt-get install ncpfs
+  sudo apt-get install ipx
+=== Configure ===
+Configure /etc/ipx.conf as follows
 <code>
 # this attempts auto-configuration
@@ Line 14: / Line 67: @@
 # for manual configuration, set IPX_CONFIGURED=yes,
 # and set the options below for your system
-IPX_DEVICE=eth0
+IPX_DEVICE=eth0                         # The device you use for the connection
 #IPX_FRAME=802.2			# either 802.2, 802.3 or EtherII
-IPX_FRAME=EtherII # either 802.2, 802.3 or EtherII
+IPX_FRAME=EtherII                       # EtherII works at Hohenheim
 IPX_INTERNAL_NET=no
-IPX_NETNUM=4117750			# your internal network number
+IPX_NETNUM=4117750			# ip of the server. can be found usin 'slist'
 # routing options

+IPX_SERVER_NETNUM=0		        # your server's internal network number
 IPX_SERVER_NODENUM=000000000000		# your server's node number
 </code>
+Restart ipx after the configuration.
+==== Mount the Novell drives ====
+The drive can now be mounted using the command
+  ncpmount -S 440-SERVER -U [username].440c.440.uniho -P [password] /media/novell/
+You just have to create the directory /media/novell/
+To unmount use this command
+  ncpumount /media/novell/
+=== Create the directory ===
+Create a new directory called "/media/novell"
+Open a Terminal.\\
+Run this command:
+  sudo mkdir /media/novell
+Change permissions so that your user can access it. Be sure to use your actual username on the Linux system
+  sudo chown yourusername:yourusername /media/novell
+Optional) Create a link so the folder will be available on your desktop. Be sure to use your actual username again
+  ln -s /media/novell /home/yourusername/Desktop/novell
+==== An Icon to Mount the Drive ====
+Using alacarte or Main Menu create a launcher.
+Click on "Icon" and choose the picture of a mounted harddrive.\\
+Click on the "Command" tab and select "Application in terminal"\\
+Paste this command into the field labeled "Command"
+  ncpmount -S 440-SERVER -U [username].440c.440.uniho -P [password] /media/novell/
+Be sure to edit each of the fields with your information
+==== An Icon to Unmount the Drive ====
+Once the network drive is mounted, you may want to unmount the drive. To do this, we can create another desktop launcher to run the unmount command.
+Using alacarte or Main Menu create a launcher.
+Click on "Icon" and choose the picture of a unmounted harddrive.\\
+Click on the "Command" tab and select "Application in terminal"\\
+Paste this command into the field labeled "Command"\\
+  ncpumount /media/novell
