The Novell Client for Windows NT/2000/XP software allows users of Windows NT/2000/XP workstations to access and use all of the services available on servers running eDirectory^™. The 32-bit Novell Client product brings the full power, ease of use, manageability, and security of eDirectory to Windows NT/2000/XP workstations. Novell Client for Windows NT/2000/XP fully supports NetWare^® and eDirectory services and utilities on a Windows NT/2000/XP workstation, including integrated messaging, multiprotocol support, management, security, and file and print services.
