Novell Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) for Linux is available beginning in OES 2 SP1 Linux.
After you set up Novell AFP on the Linux node and before you finalize the NetWare-to-Linux conversion, use the AFP function in the Migration Tool to convert the configuration. For information, see Migrating AFP from NetWare to OES 2 SP3 Linux
in the OES 2 SP3: Migration Tool Administration Guide.
The commands in the scripts are also different. After the migration, modify the load and unload scripts on the Linux server. For information, see Section 4.6, Comparing File Access Protocol Resource Script Commands.
AFP on Linux supports NCP cross-protocol file locking, which allows NCP, AFP, and CIFS users to access files on an NSS volume concurrently without data corruption by locking the files across protocols. On Linux, the cross-protocol file locking parameter for NCP Server is disabled by default. It must be enabled on each node in the cluster if you plan to give both NCP users and AFP users access to NSS volume in the cluster. See Configuring Cross-Protocol File Locks for NCP Server
in the OES 2 SP3: NCP Server for Linux Administration Guide.
