8.3.1 Setting Up an NCP Volume on a Linux Traditional File
System
If you want to copy data to a Linux traditional file system such as Reiser or ext3, you must first set it

The NCP volume is now displayed in the Project Window when you run the Server Consolidation
Utility.

systems. These are the same rights that exist for the NSS file system on NetWare:
NCP Server for Linux supports the following NetWare file and directory attributes on both NSS and
traditional Linux file systems on Linux:
Other NSS file and directory attributes are supported on NSS volumes on Linux. You can use the
attrib command to view and modify these attributes. However, they are not viewable through any
NCP clients.
The NCP Extended Attributes (supported in early versions of NCP) are not supported on Linux.
