- Ask your local Sun office for a copy of the Sun Technical White Paper
- called "Netware on SPARC/Solaris". It explains how Netware SunLink works
- and what functions it provides. We've been evaluating NetWare SunLink
- (beta version) on a Sparc2 and have found that NetWare functionality on the
- Sun is identical to what a "normal" Native NetWare (PC-based) server would
- provide. The only difference is that SunLink Netware does not support NLMs
- or Mac connections at this time. Sun's opinion is that if you want server
- based software (programs that execute on the server like an NLM) then go with
- UNIX-based software.
