    Farewell Netware

    We have turned off our novell system for the last time! After 10 years of service from Netware 5.1 to 6.5 it has been a fond and interesting time.

    Time for a new era of Server 2008R2 and Windows 7!

    You will always remember how good Netware was - at least I know I always do, every time a server crashes for no good reason, or needs a restart just because...

    I switched off my last Netware server ~ 8 years ago after nearly 15 years of using Netware.

    Welcome to the world according to Bill. I wish you all the luck you will need.

    I've just starting using Netware now where I currently work, they are slowly migrating over to 2003 AD, we are a bit behind the times. Been good using Netware 6.5 but it's really slow now.

    Farewell Netware

    I got my CNE on NetWare 1.x series, back in the '80's. Ah, the memories. Such a terrible loss. Billie boy won again.
