Please, tell me how to avoid fize size limit of 2Gb in ncpfs?
Will be lfs support added in further versions of ncpfs, like in smbfs?

I just had the same error message, and I solved it by compiling NCP file system ability into the kernel.
printing to NDS queues
The evil Netware adminstrators where I work recently deleted all the bindery print queues and left only NDS queues. Neither pqlist nor nprint seem to find them. Are they not "NDS aware" like ncpmount? Will they ever be?
Thanks.
pserver
This is a great project. ncpmount and nprint are working perfect! But when I try to start pserver I get the error
Could not attach to queue W: Unknown Server error (0x89EA)
What could be a reason for this? I am using a 4.2 Netware Server.

The same exact ncpmount command works on a different system configuration, so I know the target filesystem is valid. In my case I am beginning to suspect the kernel modifications that were done for optimizing to my notebook hardware. (the stock kernel seems to work)
About forums, I've found lots of Q&A about ncpfs and ipx over at http://www.linuxquestions.org (http://www.linuxquestions.org) so that's where I've been going lately for help and solace. ;-)
