Second thoughts I'm do not know enough technically to really get into this so we need Scott Lemon or somebody more familiar with the nitty gritties. My assumption is that any cooperation between Novell and Microsoft, assuming there is any in the first place, would center around Novell's replacing the one DLL that MSFT objected to. In other words perhaps they would cooperate on some scheme that would make the replacement unneccesary by rewriting the DLL in a way that embraced both directory approaches. If this is true, and I haven't the foggiest, then it would probably involve Novell sharing their approach with MSFT and MSFT rewriting the DLL that comes with the NT system. I think all of this is a stretch. Perhaps someone from Novell would care to clarify????? However to turn such "cooperation" into "working together" is like saying that because the US allows people to travel to Cuba with special State Department permission, it is cooperating with Cuba.
