The NCP Execute Only attribute can be associated with the user mode execute bit on a file or subdirectory. With this setting turned on, NCP clients can set or clear this bit. The Client for Linux uses this bit to represent the user mode execute bit on a file or subdirectory.
The Execute Only file attribute for NCP Server is enabled by default. You can enable or disable support for the attribute with the Execute_Attribute_Support option in the /etc/opt/novell/ncpserv.conf configuration file.
In a Web browser, access OES Remote Manager for Linux on the server, then log in as the root user.
The URL is the IP address of the server (such as 192.168.1.1) and port 8009.
https://192.168.1.1:8009
