# ./build <option>
#from the directory where you install the NWFS sources. This newer model auto detects modversioning, smp, etc. There is an assumption made that a symbolic link to /usr/src/linux ->
newer Red Hat kernels no longer use this syntax. For the NWFS build to work properly, you will need to have a pre-configured Linux source tree present with a symbolic link to the /usr/src/linux directory.
Simply type ./build for a list of build options.
The globals.h file contains the following table of options:
#define WINDOWS_NT_RO 0
#define WINDOWS_NT 0
#define WINDOWS_NT_UTIL 0
#define WINDOWS_CONVERT 0
#define WINDOWS_98_UTIL 0
#define LINUX_20 0
#define LINUX_22 1
#define LINUX_24 0
#define LINUX_UTIL 0
#define DOS_UTIL 0select build environment (you can only select one at a time).
There are makefiles included for different kernel configurations. To make the NWFS driver for Linux, select one of the following. The makefiles support modversioned kernels and naked kernels.
#define LINUX_20 0
#define LINUX_22 1
#define LINUX_24 0- make -f nwfs.mak This will make an NWFS driver SMP-no MODVER-no
- make -f nwfsmod.mak This will make an NWFS driver SMP-no MODVER-yes
- make -f nwfssmp.mak This will make an NWFS driver SMP-yes MODVER-no
- make -f nwmodsmp.mak This will make an NWFS driver SMP-yes MODVER-yes
The Linux versions are supported under the GCC Linux compiler To make the Linux tools:
#define LINUX_UTIL 1make -f util.mak
The DOS versions are supported under the DJ Delorie GCC MS-DOS compiler. To make the MS-DOS tools:
#define DOS_UTIL 1make -f dos.mak
The Windows NT/2000 versions are supported under Microsoft C++ 5.0 or higher To make the WIndows NT/2000 tools:
#define WINDOWS_NT_UTIL 1nmake /f utilms.mak

To install the Windows NT/2000 version, copy the NWFSRO.SYS driver to the %SYSTEM_ROOT%\System32\drivers directory (WINNT is the name of the %SYSTEM_ROOT% on most systems) and run regini.exe (which comes with the Windows NT/2000 DDK) to add the registry entries to your system that will allow the driver to load at the next reboot.
Command syntax for regini.exe is:
C:\>regini nwfsro.ini <enter>To query available volumes on this machine that can be mounted, invoke NWVOL.EXE by typing:
C:\>NWVOLNWVOL will list all volumes detected on this server.

C:\>nwmount *This will mount all NetWare volumes on an NT/2000 server as Native Windows NT File Systems. You can also mount a specific volume by typing "nwmount VOLUME_NAME".
Simply type NWMOUNT.EXE or NWDISMNT.EXE with no arguments and these programs will display additional help information.
You should copy the utilities into the /WINNT/System32 directory. If you want to change any volume configurations, you should only do so with the driver unloaded and all volumes dismounted. See NWCONFIG.EXE for very complete help on how to manage NetWare volumes.
