Novell answers Windows directory call
By Dave Kearns

From the article:
In fact, after talking to people who have tried the alpha and pre-beta releases of ADS, it appears to be less a directory system, in the NDS or StreetTalk sense, than a Microsoft implementation of the late, unlamented Novell Name Service. That is, ADS is a way of tying together and synchronizing groups of NT domains....
I've said previously in this column that Novell is far from irrelevant (NW, March 3, page 24), that Microsoft doesn't understand the enterprise, and that Microsoft may be overextended trying to fight battles and skirmishes on all fronts (NW, March 10, page 22). And it's all still true. The NT Server NOS has some features that make it very desirable for a small department, workgroup or remote site within your corporate network. NDS for NT will make it a full-blown, well-designed solution.
**Comment** This guy is not scared of MSFT. I have a suggestion for Novell's PR department, hire Mr. Kearns to deflect some of MSFT FUD since none of you is willing to do it.
