Novell NetWare

Once the network operating system of choice for all but a few networks, NetWare's popularity has declined somewhat. However, NetWare is still widely used in many large organizations. The latest version of NetWare, version 6, has garnered a number of awards and continues to prove that Novell can produce a world-leading network operating system.

Note The information this tutorial provides on Novell NetWare is intended to apply to NetWare 5 and 6. If you find yourself working on an older version of NetWare, you might find that some of the commands and utilities are different from those discussed here.
