Here is a link to the dosemu howto: 
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DOSEMU-HOWTO.html

But you can start like this:

Execute dosemu to create the default dirs in your home directory
Exit or open another term and visit dosemu/freedos in your home directory
You can create new dirs there.

So, connect to and mount your netware volume in Linux.
Create a symbolic link to this directory in the dosemu/freedos directory.
You should now be able to access your netware volume within dosemu.

I just attempted this from home at work.  I can run rconsole, but I do not
have any ipx connectivity.  I'm wondering if installing a network driver
would work?
