I'm not sure how the Sun box is connected to the Novell network, but 
*IF* it running Samba to get it connected to the network, then I 
*THINK* it may have something to do with the version of Samba or one 
of the settings in the Samba config file on the Sun box.

I seem to recall reading something like this a while back. It may 
have been fixed by V3.0 of Samba
