It is clear that Netware 6.5 supports USB keyboard and mouse, however, does anybody know it as a fact and has verified whether or not Netware 6.5 also supports the USB attached hard drives?
Thanks,
Jeff

I have not seen a definitive answer, but I STRONGLY suspect the USB hard drives are not supported. There is a patch, I think, for installing netWare from a bootable USB CD-ROM, but that's as close as it comes.
The real question is, "Why?". USB would be notoriously slow for a server. If you are thinking about using it as a backup device, better to put it on a workstation and simply copy the files.

We gave up on this one, even with Novell there are disagreements as to whetehr or not USB is supported after installtion is finished

Netware 6.5 is reported to suport USB drives and with SP1.1 added automatic mounting of them. I am about to try this feature to back up a remote server. With Novell's excellent track record I suspect that I will be successful.
