It works great!  You need an updated version if you upgrade CND 1.0 to 
picasso, and they have a module patch available for 2.0.x kernels.  
Detail at www.caldera.com

Yes, there's a nwprint client that works OK from command line.  I'm still 
having problems piping lpr to use it (I only recently tried printing, 
otherwise I've been using CND 1.0 in a Netware environment since January.)

Yes.  Our "intranet" server maps work group's web directories under the 
httpd document space, so people can publish web pages using their 
familiar Win/DOS copy instead of mysterious ftp.

Don't know, our lan still uses bindery.  I *think* so, but check at 
caldera.  You might also check their mail list.

IMHO, they have the best integration of any Linux system in a Netware 
environment.
