Eliminate Client Software with Novell Native File Access Protocols

Novell^® Native File Access Protocols let Macintosh*, Windows*, and UNIX* workstations access and store files on NetWare servers without having to install any additional software---such as Novell Client^TM software. The software is installed only on the NetWare server and provides "out of the box" network access. Just plug in the network cable, start the computer, and you've got access to servers on your network. No more client configuration. No more client software. No more problems.

For more information, see the Novell Native File Access Protocols Installation and Administration Guide.

Access Internet Services from a Centralized Location with NetWare WebAccess

NetWare WebAccess allows administrators to set up a Web page that lets users access multiple network resources from their Web browser. Users do not need a Novell Client or VPN client to access to their resources. They can access these resources on the Web from any computer with a compliant browser.

Customized content is provided through gadgets. A gadget provides access to specific content on the network. Gadgets communicate with the appropriate back-end system to gather the necessary data for a particular user---and users can access it all with a single password.
