Installing Novell Native File Access Protocols
Novell Native File Access Pack lets Macintosh, Windows, and UNIX
workstations access and store files on NetWare servers without having to
install any additional software—such as Novell Client software. The software
is installed only on the NetWare server and provides "out of the box" network
access. Just plug in the network cable, start the computer, and you have access
to servers on your network. No client configuration, no client software, no
problem.
About Native Protocols
Novell Native File Access Pack software enables the NetWare server to use
the same protocol (referred to as "native") as the client workstation to copy,
delete, move, save, and open files. Windows workstations perform these tasks
using the native Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol, and
Macintosh workstations use the native Apple* Filing Protocol (AFP). UNIX
computers use the NFS protocol.
