There is a program which provides a near full Novell 3.x
(BINDARY) emulation. It's the "mars" package. I don't know if there is a
debian package available.

I havn't used it but one of my collegues here at work has used it for a
while and his comment is that the print serving and mail distribution
functions work very well, the file serving is a bit inefficient.

Hope that helps.

.sig is not available right now. Leave you name, number and something
inspirational after the dotted line and it will get back to you as soon as
possible.
