Novell Reduces Price of Novell InnerWeb Publisher

New Pricing Reflects Novell's Commitment to the Intranet Market

What:
Novell today announced a price reduction of its Novell InnerWeb Publisher™, now available for a suggested retail price of $1,795. This new pricing makes it easier for customers to take advantage of the most complete, cost-effective intranet publishing solution on the market today. Novell InnerWeb Publisher provides everything you need in one box for publishing internal Web documents on a corporate Web site.

One of the key elements of Novell InnerWeb Publisher is Novell's NetWare® Web Server 2.5™, a NetWare Loadable Module™ (NLM™) that allows customers to utilize NetWare servers as the core of their fully fledged Web sites. In addition, NetWare Web Server 2.5 utilizes Novell Directory Services™ (NDS™) by providing user authentication, dynamic Web page creation, and the ability to browse corporate directories.

In addition to the NetWare Web Server, Novell InnerWeb Publisher also includes:

  • Netscape Navigator 2.01™ -- this version of popular browser supports the latest Internet technology including Java™, JavaScript and Inline Plug-Ins. In addition, the product features an integrated e-mail and news reader, HTML support and a bookmark facility.
  • HoTMetaL Light™ -- this HTML authoring tool combines high-powered templates and forms tools with traditional word-processing features to make it easy for users to quickly create effective Web pages.
  • IWare Lite™ -- this IPX-to-IP translator enables Web access over Internet Packet eXchange (IPX), so that administrators do not have to install or manage Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stacks on every desktop for users to connect to their corporate intranets.
  • NetWare 4.1 Runtime -- the core NetWare 4.1 operating system gives customers a cost-effective way to implement the NetWare Web Server on a dedicated runtime server in either a NetWare 3.x or NetWare 4.x environment.
When:
Novell InnerWeb Publisher is now available at the reduced price. Upgrades from NetWare Web Server 2.x to Novell InnerWeb Publisher are now available for $1,100.
