Early test versions of NetWare 5 bode well for its prospects (see story, p. 52). TCP/IP support tops the list of important new features in version 5. Nearly two-thirds of IT managers testing NetWare 5 cited TCP/IP support as their top reason for deploying the new version, according to a recent Infor-mationWeek survey (see chart, p. 48) Novell will take steps in this direction next week at its BrainShare user conference, where it plans to distribute the third test release of NetWare 5. The company also will outline plans for NetWare 6 to be a bigger, faster network operating system, running on 64-bit machines. Novell is also expected to announce alliances next week with Compaq, Oracle, and possibly others.
