Product Description

Novell Kanaka for Mac provides Mac OS X users automated single login access to Novell eDirectory storage resources through flexible login options. The Kanaka Plug-in component allows users to simultaneously log in to Mac OS X and mount storage resources through a single username and password. The Kanaka Desktop Client allows users to access network storage resources after they have logged in as a local user to Mac OS X.

For Novell Open Enterprise Server customers with current Maintenance Agreements, Novell distributes as its Mac client, Novell Kanaka for Mac free of charge.

Important:Kanaka for Mac version 2.8.1 is an upgrade to Kanaka for Mac version 2.8.x. A similar version update is available for Kanaka for Mac version 2.7.x. Both versions are functionally equivalent, but version 2.8.x requires that Mac OS X be updated with the certificate authority’s trusted root. Novell highly recommends that Novell Kanaka for Mac 2.7.x customers upgrade only to version 2.7.2 and that Novell Kanaka for Mac 2.8.x customers only upgrade to version 2.8.1.
