Pullin, FYI.......=;-> Humbly, QuadK Message 6289960 dailynews.yahoo.com. Wednesday November 18 3:57 AM ET Cisco, Novell to collaborate on Novell Directory Services PC Week By Scott Berinato, ZDNet LAS VEGAS -- It's not the deal, but it is a deal. After months of negotiation, Cisco Systems Inc. and Novell Inc. are expected to announce at Comdex here Wednesday that they will work together to integrate Novell Directory Services (NDS) with Cisco networking hardware, according to sources close to the companies. To underscore the commitment, the companies will demonstrate at Novell's Comdex booth a new technology that enables NDS to store networking hardware configurations in the directory and automatically distribute those configurations to any network device by way of a Java applet. Cisco (Nasdaq:CSCO) will not license NDS as part of the deal, as many users were hoping. But the companies have agreed that any extensions made for Cisco products in the standard Directory Enabled Networking (DEN) schema will be made available to Novell (Nasdaq:NOVL) to apply to NDS, sources close to Cisco said. This will enable NDS to fully manage DEN-enabled Cisco hardware. Sources said the Novell partnership does not affect Cisco's development of Cisco Networking Services for Active Directory (CNS/AD), forthcoming software services that are based on Microsoft's directory service, which is due as part of Windows 2000 next year. Novell and Cisco have not set a target date for releasing their yet to-be-named technology.
