Puh-Lease... That's was Novell's theory in the past. Pretty much has no merit anymore... YMMV...
I've been a Novell person and I'm a MS person. We happen to have a mixed environment here. Soon we won't, as I will be doing a full blown W2K migration to get rid of Novell. Thus far all it has done is cause headaches... -----Original Message----- From: Sean McLaughlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2001 12:22 PM To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: RE: NT vs Netware The plan is not to migrate all of our NT servers, but to migrate those that will utilize Novell's file and print services [which have been heralded to be faster and more stable than NT] -----Original Message----- From: Craig Manske [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2001 2:59 PM To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: RE: NT vs Netware Well let's ask this question. You have two equally functional network operating systems. One of the Operating Systems is owned and developed by the future OS monopoly with unlimited resources to toss into research and development plus every third party software company in their pocket. The second is owned by a once OS giant who has no where near the R&D funding, nearly no third party support, and one foot in the grave. Not to mention that every new idea the later has is quickly and quietly appropriated by the prior. We may all have a heartfelt feeling for the little guys who been accosted by the big guy. But, when it comes to my paycheck and supporting my family I'll stick with the guy who's going to offer the most support, and the best chance of having a job in 5 years. Personally I'd like to build on the knowledge I have right now for the future, not start from scratch. If you're already running Novell servers it's a different story but in my opinion migrating from NT to Novell is a frivolous, dangerous, and costly experiment. It is truly amazing that Novell has made it this far... Just my opinion. -cm -----Original Message----- From: Sean McLaughlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 4:38 PM To: MSWinNT Discussions Subject: NT vs Netware Importance: High I know that this isn't typical fare for everybody, it may even be considered blasphemous by some..but, what is the general consensus on Novell's NetWare 6? Our shop is NT, but we are thinking about switching over some of the resources to Novell [Remote access, print server etc..]I have done some preliminary testing in our lab, and I have to be honest....it looks pretty good **gasp** Win2k be damned? - Sean McLaughlin - ------ You are subscribed as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------ You are subscribed as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------ You are subscribed as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------ You are subscribed as [email protected] Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
