Accessing a Novell server via QNTC from the AS/400

Good morning -

I have been reading with interest the messages regarding the use of QNTC and
I have a question.

We use Novell 5.0 as our primary network operating system, using Windows NT
only when forced to.  Every day, we download 50+ AS/400 files to the IFS using
CPYTOIMPF, where PC jobs import them and do various things.  To be able
to see those files, the PC's have a drive mapped to the IFS and they read the
data from the IFS drive directly.  Some of these jobs are DOS-based (within
Windows, of course) and we are plagued with nagging connectivity issues
between the jobs in the DOS Windows and the IFS drive (these are a reflection
of the DOS/Windows PC's themselves, not the Netserver interface).

Anyways, I would like to be able to, using the CPYTOIMPF command in a CL 
program,
send those files to the Novell server using QNTC.  The Novell server is 
available on
Windows PC's using the regular Windows networking (I do not have to load IPX or
a Novell Client or anything), so THEORETICALLY I could access my Novell server.
Which, of course, I have been able to do thus far.  I did make sure my AS/400
user/password matched up with my Novell user/password, but no luck yet.

Anyone have any experience with this or have any suggestions?  Getting rid of
the DOS/Windows programs in NOT an option.

Thanks.
