Prosoft Engineering late last month released NetWare Client for Mac OS X - IP Edition v1.0.3, allowing Mac OS X users to connect to a Novell IP-based network. Now compatible with Jaguar, it allows users to authenticate and use NetWare natively using the IP protocol, eliminating the need to propagate AppleTalk on your local area network. It offers native NCP file handling, NDS browsing for finding and authenticating to NetWare servers, support for NSS volumes (for file sizes of up to 8-terabytes and allows billions of volumes and directories), and support for RSA Secure Login. It is free to owners of its Data Rescue data recovery utility and $150 for commercial purchases.

    SLP Scope

    My hands-on experience with the Prosoft Client for MacOSX indicates that it does not support scoped SLP environments, which is required with NetWare 6. I cannot recommend this software.

    Insane pricing!

    I recall purchasing the older OS9 version of Prosoft's client - true, I couldn't do everything, but I could connect, find printers and use Groupwise (thanks for nothing). But it was only $50, which my company complained about having to pay for (they got the PC licences free from Novell...but $150? For a client?? I'm obviously not gonna pay for someones drug habit!

    "$50 for a client! Inconcievable!" "You keep saying that...I do not think that means what you think it means..."

    Should be free...

    Just as Jag makes connecting with Windows networks pretty much a no-brainer, Netware connectivity needs to be included at no cost as there are still a lot of Netware servers out there. Paying more for a single network client than the OS itself is nuts.
