Technology Stocks : Novell (NOVL) dirt cheap, good buy? -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Truly a noise-level report which will have no bearing on Novell's bottom line. There are dozens of high-powered cryptographic technologies out there, the purchase of PGP by Network Associates comes to mind, but it's nice to see Novell reinventing the wheel during a period of severe wheel-glut. The clear recognition that their home-grown development team doesn't have a clue is encouraging, however.

Novell + Ascend, Voice + Data, ATM, common application - interesting

**************
Wellmont Health System, a group of three large medical facilities and 30 small clinics based in Kingsport, Tenn., uses a Xylan Omniswitch at each main location for its private ATM network. Wellmont runs voice and data traffic on its ATM network, says network specialist Darren Ramsey.

Each major site is equipped with an Ascend Max 4004 remote access
server, which lets remote clinics and mobile notebook users dial in. The Max's flexibility lets Wellmont support V.34, K56flex and ISDN. Novell's Radius for NDS, which runs on two NetWare systems for redundancy, authenticates remote users, regardless of which Max they dial into.
