Q.
I know that Support Pack 5 has been released for NetWare 5.1. Should I deploy it? If so, are their any additional updates I should also use along with it?

Dear Deploying: Support Pack 5 for NetWare 5.1 appears quite "solid." It even resolves the NWASPI.CDM memory leak (by employing a back-rev to the Support Pack 2A version of NWASPI.CDM).
If you do apply Support Pack 5, you should also apply the TCP update that is found in the file Tcp581e.exe. You can find out more about this file and TID at http://support.novell.com/servlet/tidfinder/2963355.
As Support Pack 5 contains an older NWASPI.CDM file, the Support Pack install process will not replace the NWASPI.CDM file that comes from Support Pack 4 if it exists. If you have at any time installed Support Pack 4, you will have to manually replace the NWASPI.CDM file.
