Eric, >> Joe do you have an idea? WHY WHY << The first thing you need
to understand that in most IS shops they are running multiple
operating systems. Forget about mainframes for this discussion. In
the PC world, most large organizations are using NETWARE to control
thier LAN environment ONLY. And in doing so they run NETWARE as what
they call a "FILE AND PRINT SERVER OS". THAT'S IT! They don't run
APPLICATIONS like Word or Lotus on NETWARE. They us another OS to
do this on. Whether it be PC or MAC based OR Unix Workstation based.
Being a WEB SERVER by TODAYS DEFINITION means you run APPLICATIONS on
the SERVER that the CLIENTS (YOU on your PC) access. Well, this is
BRAND NEW territory for NOVELL (Other than thier ill-fated SuperNOS).
What you are seeing is like I said before, the "nut" NOVL has to crack
