NOVELL: Novell delivers management console on Windows NT AUG 27, 1998, M2 Communications - Novell has announced immediate availability of ManageWise 2.6, the latest version of its comprehensive, standards-based network management tool for mixed NT and NetWare environments. New to ManageWise 2.6 is NetWare 5 and Windows NT console support, providing network managers with a single management console that runs seamlessly on any workstation. It also includes monitoring of NDS to provide management of events occurring within the network directory. Judy Johnston, regional product marketing manager, Novell said: "Novell ManageWise reduces the complexity of the network, enabling network administrators to seamlessly manage open systems from a single console, including NetWare, NT and Mac environments." Novell ManageWise 2.6 also includes new alarms for improved NetWare server management; enhanced network traffic analysis with FDDI support and new decodes for IP-specific protocols; improved custom maps which allow administrators to tailor the network view to reflect the actual geography of their organisations; improved performance for autodiscovery of the network, which now takes place up to ten times faster; and enhanced virus protection for reduced risk of virus infiltration on network servers and desktops. "ManageWise 2.6 provides companies with a complete arsenal of tools to lower the cost of network management," said Johnston. "ManageWise not only alerts network managers to problems before they occur and isolates problems quickly, but also allows them to gather data necessary to plan network asset purchases." The new features in ManageWise 2.6: * NetWare 5 Support - ManageWise 2.6 supports NetWare 3, NetWare 4.x and now, version 5, to allow businesses to implement the best combination of server operating systems to meet their needs. * Windows NT Console Support - ManageWise 2.6 supports a console running on a Windows NT workstation, Windows 95 and Windows 98. This provides a central location from which network administrators can manage their networks more efficiently. * NDS Monitoring - ManageWise 2.6 decreases network downtime by allowing network administrators to keep tabs on events that occur within the directory. It also uses SNMP alarms to alert administrators to potential problems. * Year 2000 Ready - ManageWise 2.6 is Year 2000-ready out of the box.

But the Redmond, Washington-based company didn't deliver all of the code, according to Caldera CEO Bryan Sparks. "They said they couldn't find all of the Windows 95 and DOS source code we requested," he said. "The part they did give us, they provided in five days." Microsoft spokesman Jim Cullinan said the additional code is on the way. "Back in July, they asked for specific code from Windows 95. We provided some five days after the judge requested it," he said. "It was a narrow amount [of code that was requested]. It's also old code. I know our programmers are still trying to locate some more. I'm not sure what the status is on that." technews.netscape.com

We should not be discussing Monica. Japan remains The key . "Next week is the week of meetings. The International Monetary Fund will meet in Washington with Latin American finance officials to discuss how the global financial markets could impact their region. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin will meet in San Francisco at the end of the week with Japanese Finance Minister Kiichi Miyazawa. A surprise for the market, but a welcome one, was news that Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan will join the meeting as well. Greenspan's presence is reassuring, even though Rubin has been outspoken on Japan's need to mend its economy. Prime Minister "Keizo Obuchi is a consensus builder, and they're slow and methodical," Reuss said. "I don't see anything definitive that says they're going to get into a recovery. I think we're giving them the wrong prescription when say to cut taxes. They need jobs there." "
