The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Issues Novell Client for Linux, Cannot novs-kmp-default in YAST

Asked by mpatterson2100 in Linux Networking, Novell Netware Network Software, SuSE Linux

Tags: Linux, Novell, SUSE

I'm trying to get the Novell Client for Linux 2.0 Sp1 for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP2. My kernel is the default kernel.
One of the prerequisites is installing novfs-kmp-default. I tried to follow the installation procedure, but I cannot find the file in YAST. I tried adding the CD as an installation source and the file is still not there.

I search for the novs-kmp-default and it is not there. Since I have to have it installed before I can install the Novell Client for Linux, and I have to have that installed before Console one for linux will work, I'm pretty much stuck until I can find the appropriate file.  

Basically, I'm wondering where I can find novfs-kmp-default. I spend about 30 minutes googling it and I can't seem to find it anywhere.  I'm new to linux, so it would be helpful if, when you give me directions, you at least place links to the step by step.

So, from the documentation(which I've read by the way)
Documentation link http://www.novell.com/documentation/linux_client/linuxclient20sp1/?page=/documentation/linux_client/linuxclient20sp1/data/bwlhjz7.html#bwlhjz7
To install the required packages:

   1.

      Launch the YaST Control Center.

      GNOME: Click Computer > More Applications > System > YaST.

      KDE: Click the menu button > System > YaST.
   2.

      If you are not logged in as root, type the root password, then click Continue.
   3.

      Click Software in the left column, then click Software Management in the right column.
   4.

      Click Search in the Filter drop-down list.
   5.

      In the Search field, type the name of the package you want to install, then click Search.
   6.

      Select the package for installation.
   7.

      Repeat Step 5 and Step 6 for each package that you want to install.
   8.

      Click Accept to install all of the selected packages.

      YaST displays the progress of the package installation.
   9.

      (Conditional) If a message informs you that other package selections have been made to resolve dependencies, click Continue.
  10.

      (Conditional) If a message prompts you to insert a CD, put the CD in the CD drive, then click OK.
  11.

      After all the packages have been installed, click Close to close the YaST Control Center.
