Novell Client
Authored by: dave@mmu on Jun 11, '02 04:01:33AM

Hi, i work for a large uk university (bet you can't guess!) which uses Novell 5.1 as it's standard server platform. Not long ago, i was asked to fill in a questionnaire concerning Novell ZENWorks and OS X. It looks like they're at least thinking about it. Apparently, in ZENworks4 the client (PC/MAC) doesn't actually login via a client program, but via a browser using a plugin to control the machine according to the rules set in the Policy Packages. This is more interesting as now Novell (or the ProSoft Client dev team they bought) only has to develop a plugin rather than a whole client/protocol system. Also with NW6's improved Native File Access, it sounds like Novell access for OS X is just around the corner!
