Hey all,

Is it possible to go to native mode with Win2k when there is a Novell server (that half my users need to access) on the network? Current workstation configurations are Win9x (hopefully ALL Win2k next year if my budget survives the Hatchet Man). I won't be able to remove the Novell server for another couple of years so dropping it now is not an option. Any ideas, suggestions, and recommendations will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe Brouillette
 
Netware doesn't interact with the ADS so it doesn't matter what mode Win2k is in.
 
I guess I have one more thing to add--I'm running Gateway Services for Netware on my servers. Does this change anything?

Thanks,

No, the only issue is that W2k does not talk to netware via IP so U will have to keep IPX/SPX protocols running on both servers. Mark

Got it!
