I've never try this, so take it as a theoretical guide :)). We are working with LDAP in PHP. NDS in Novell is a kind of LDAP tree. Try to install LDAP module on your Novell server and talk to it in php using ldap functions of PHP.

I have written Novell/LDAP code examples for ASP and Perl. They were intended to handle the exact situation you are experiencing and in my honest opinion work exceedingly well.

I would be happy to provide you with the code and a guide for using them if you wish. E-mail me.
