File Ownership on NetWare Drives

Subject:File Ownership on NetWare Drives

Hi,

I'm writing an application that searches for data files and it needs to
report on file ownership. I've got it working on local drives and
Windows shares using the GetFileSecurity and GetSecurityDescriptorOwner
functions, but when it reads a file on a NetWare drive it returns no
details.

Two questions:

1. Is there any way to get the file ownership details without using the
Netware Client API?

2. Is there any way to determine if a mapped drive is using a Windows
share or a NetWare share? GetDriveType returns "remote network" for both.

Thanks.

Andrew
