	What optional packages do you have for your Novell
server?  What can you get?

	If you have/can get the NFS/NIS NLM's for your Netware
server, you can set up the Netware system as the NIS domain
master, and have the Linux box(es) set up as NIS clients.  Linux
will request authentication information via NIS. Only one source
of authentiation information required, and its on the Netware
system you're already familiar with..
