Environment


Reload (all version)

Situation

How do I get NCPFS on my Reload server?

Resolution


Currently, SLES 11 does not include NCPFS which is required for backing up Netware servers from Reload.  To install, the Reload documentation states that you can go into "Install Software" on the SLES 11 server and install NCPFS.  Some builds of SLES 11 do not include NCPFS package to install.  The RPM for NCPFS is included on the SLES 11 SDK; Media 1 disk, click to download the 64bit version of ncpfs-2.2.6-147.16.x86_64.rpm, and click the following link to download the 32bit version of ncpfs-2.2.6-147.16.1586.rpm.  If a different version is needed then the SLES 11 sdk will need to be downloaded.

Change into the directory where the rpm was downloaded, and then run the following command;
rpm -ivh <filename>.rpm
