I run a 1 server Netware 3.11 network that we are extremely happy
with. Due to 3.11 not being Y2K compliant and non-Novell supported, we
have to make a move. Where I work, we can get Novell 5.0 100-user
license cheaper than Novell 3.20 upgrade to 100 user. I really do want
to keep the network as simple and stable (100+ days at a time with no
reboots) as it is. Can I keep it that way with Novell 5.0?? Will NDS
require a huge adjustment from 3.11 ??? Is Netware 3.2 a better choice
for me in spite of the pricing?.
Other factors:
we don't need to provide; TCP/IP, WAN, remote access, e-mail, Mac
access.
All clients are Win95
We are getting a P-III 450, 128MB, 9.0 GB SCSI drive server either way
we go.
Thanks In advance,
Jim
