Unix clients with a NetWare file server:  You'll be interested in the NetWare
NFS product announced on Monday and shipping in April.  It allows NetWare v3.11
to provide "native" (ie. no gateway needed) file and print services for Unix
clients.

NetWare clients with an Unix server:  The Novell LAN Workplace for DOS 4.0
provides hardware-independent FTP and TELNET sessions concurrent with NetWare's
IPX/SPX protocols.  Other solutions exist from third parties.

I'm not very knowledgeable about all the third party products out there, but
I'm might be able to answer some questions on the Novell products, especially
while Brian Meek & Co. are out at NetWorld.
