I have been researching Novell for a 12 site project.
and I have be educated ( in the 48 hours)....
A lot of people fear it - specially in the SBS forums because like me
they have never seen anything else!!
Anyway.....
You will need to install the Novell client on the PC - the ones that need to
access the Novell server
(it won't mess up AD or your Pc or anything - its designed to work in
conjuction with MS suff!!!)
Our Group office uses BOTH Novell and Windows
Novell client is installed on Windows 2003 Server that's used for MS SQL
{I would seriously consider upgrading the Novell to 6.5 (NW6.5SBS if less
then 100 user)
NW6.5 can be accessed without NOVELL client if you want}
With NW6.5 you can access files with just a Browser
At this point I will probably stay with SBS2003 (because I know it)
I have been given an evaluation verison by Group IT so I'm gonna do a
trial install this weekend... seems to have a lot of goodies and I like the
simple administration - from what I've seen so far light years ahead of MS
...might even write an artical about the experience.
