<para><parameter>--prefix=""</parameter>:
installs binaries on the root partition so that they are available at
boot time. This may not be ideal for all systems. If
<filename class="directory">/usr</filename> is mounted locally,
<parameter>--prefix=/usr</parameter> may be a better option.</para>
<para><parameter>--includedir=/usr/include</parameter>: Tells configure
to look in <filename class="directory">/usr/include</filename> for header
files. It also tells make to install <application>NCPFS</application>'s
headers here.</para>
<para><parameter>--mandir=/usr/share/man</parameter>: installs the man
pages in the correct location.</para>
<para><parameter>--datadir=/usr/share</parameter>: correctly installs the
locale files to <filename class="directory">/usr/share</filename>.</para>
<note><para>If you do not need to use the <acronym>IPX</acronym> protocol, or
you use a different <acronym>IPX</acronym> package, you can optionally pass
<parameter>--disable-ipx</parameter> and/or
<parameter>--disable-ipx-tools</parameter> to the <command>configure</command>
script to disable these options.</para></note>

<para><filename>~/.nwclient</filename></para>
</sect3>
<sect3><title>Configuration Information</title>
<para>A config file <filename>~/.nwclient</filename> should be placed in the
home directory of each user that intends to use
<application>ncpfs</application>. The permissions on this file should be set
to 600, for obvious security reasons. The configuration file should contain
a single line per server that the user will use. Each line should contain
the server name, the user name, and optionally the password. Below is a
sample <filename>.nwclient</filename> file.</para>
<screen><userinput># Begin example <filename>~/.nwclient</filename> config file
Server1/User1 Password
Server2/User1
Server2/Guest1 -
# End example .nwclient config file</userinput></screen>
<para>The syntax for the <filename>.nwclient</filename> file is simple,
<userinput>server_name/user_name password</userinput>. Be extremely
careful when creating or editing this file as the client utilities are
very picky about syntax. There should always be a space immediately
after the username. If this space is substituted by a tab or multiple
spaces, you will not get the expected results when attempting to use
the <application>NCPFS</application> tools. If no password is supplied,
the client utilities will ask for a password when it is needed. If no
password is needed, for instance when using a guest account, a single '-'
should be put in place of a password.</para>
<para>It should be noted that the ncpmount is not intended to mount
individual volumes because each mount point creates a separate client
connection to the Novell server. Mounting each individual volume
separately would be unwise, as mounting all volumes on a server
under one mount point uses only one client connection.</para>
<para>If you need to set up the <acronym>IPX</acronym> protocol at boot,
you can install the
<filename>/etc/sysconfig/network-devices/services/ipx</filename>
network service script included with the
<xref linkend="intro-important-bootscripts"/> package.</para>
<screen><userinput><command>make install-service-ipx</command></userinput></screen>
<para>Next install the
<filename>/etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/ipx</filename>
configuration file with the following commands:</para>
<screen><userinput><command>install -d /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0 &amp;&amp;
cat &gt; /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0/ipx &lt;&lt; "EOF"</command>
ONBOOT="yes"
SERVICE="ipx"
FRAME="<replaceable>[802.2]</replaceable>"
<command>EOF</command></userinput></screen>
