Hello all...<br />
<br />
A very general question. &nbsp;We need to replace an old Compaq server that just failed, and we want to replace it with a Dell Poweredge 2950. &nbsp;Now, of course, Netware isn't 'included' in their list of Dell's supplied/available OS's to install. &nbsp;I wanted to get some feedback from others who have installed NW on the Dell servers: does it go, any particular issues, etc.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

(PS While I love to hear opinions on things, in this case I would like to just get specific feedback on my question. &nbsp;We are happy with Dell, and are happy with Netware.)

Hello all...

A very general question.  We need to replace an old Compaq server that just failed, and we want to replace it with a Dell Poweredge 2950.  Now, of course, Netware isn't 'included' in their list of Dell's supplied/available OS's to install.  I wanted to get some feedback from others who have installed NW on the Dell servers: does it go, any particular issues, etc.

Thanks,

Installing Netware 6.5 on a new Dell Poweredge Server - will there be a problem?

NetWare is a computer network operating system developed by Novell, Inc. It initially used cooperative multitasking to run various services on a personal computer, using the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) network protocol. It is hardware-independent, running on any suitable Intel-based PC compatible system, and a wide range of network cards. Products inclue NetWare Directory Services (NDS), a global directory service similar to Microsoft's Active Directory; GroupWise, an email system; ZENworks, an application configuration suite; and BorderManager, a security product. Open Enterprise Server, the current iteration, runs on a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.
