     rconsole is loaded as a module in the autoexec.ncf (has this turned 
     into a Novell discussion?) The rconsole line must indicate the 
     connection type (rs232 or spx) then usually a password follows (BTW, 
     it's not encrypted).  Anyone trying to run rconsole would be prompted 
     for the password as written in the .ncf.

        You won't be able to telnet unless you've added tcp/ip to the stack.    
        I'm not entirely sure you'd be able interpret the drive/volume anyway   
        unless you are running NFS (UNIX Services, I think Novell calls it now).

        I would imagine we should take the rest of this 'off-line'

No, there is no provision for telnet-ing to a NetWare server, as there 
are no tty process. As for the remainder, it isn't too difficult.
     
The support for Macintosh is now handled by either NetWare for Macintosh 
(for NetWare version 4.10) or by NetWare Client for Mac OS v.5.11 (for 
NetWare 4.10 and 4.11). However, since you can apparently log into the 
server now with the mac, you probably just need to add the Mac name space 
to one or more volumes on the server, e.g.,:
     
load mac
add name space macintosh to volume {volume_name}
     
The first line will load the Macintosh volume name space support file 
mac.nam, and the second line will add the directory name space to the 
volume(s). The name space support will auto load when the volumes mount 
at boot time. Just make sure that you have loaded afp.nlm in the 
autoexec.ncf file.
     
I'm not sure what you meant by logging in remotely, as you metioned 
rconsole and remote. rconsole will let you get control of the file server 
monitor from a network or modem to server connection, remote connection 
to the network is another issue entirely.
