We are installing a Netware 5.1 Network. We have Nt servers from wich we have important applications that we can't move to the Netware server. We can't seem to arrange some sort of communication from the Netware 5.1 servers (clusters) to the Nt 4 servers... Need help... More info could be supplied if needed!

Have you tried NDS for Windows NT? This should give Full Netware Directory Services authentication between the systems. As far as just rough communications its a matter of the client and or the protocols your running. If you give more specifics on the type of communications you require that might help.

Good luck.

NT and NetWare will not jsut talk to each other, not even if you have the same protocols. At its best you can make them do something like ping to each other, or recognise each other's name.
If you want to transfer data, you need to log in somehow. Install a Novell Client on your NT server, and you'll be able to map a drive on the Novell server, and copy/delete/move/whatever your access rights allow you to.
