Since the first release of Novell® ZENworks® Desktop Management (formerly called “ZENworks for Desktops”), the Novell Client™ has been an integral part of delivering zero-effort networking (ZEN) to the user's desktop. The client enables the user's Windows* workstation to securely access network resources, including NetWare® and Windows 2000/2003 servers, security, and network printers. It also integrates NetWare services such as file and print, object management in the directory, drive mapping, browsing network servers and printers, user administration on network servers, establishing rights, login scripts, and so on.
With ZENworks 7 Desktop Management, the Novell Client is not mandatory on a user's workstation because the Desktop Management Agent performs all of the functions needed to manage a workstation.
