Subject: [OS2NetWare] - Netware IP Client for OS2

Thanks, Vaughn. I think that I'll revisit this situation once I'm through this week (end of tax season). The best would perhaps be to set up a poll on my site and publicize it on the usual channels. Once that's done, and we have at least some barometer for how many licenses we could possibly sell, the next step would be get a fair estimate of the cost involved in developing the client, and to approach Novell with a proposal (we need at least some of the source code to the existing client and perhaps a good portion of the code for the Win32 client).

Once I can get my head clear to think straight, I'll start scripting the poll, and kick it around here for feedback before posting it.

Hi Lewis

I agree about purchasing a client, it seems that, that would be the only way to get a project going for a pure IP client and maybe some support for NDPS printing. With the updated client then there is no reason why one can totally use eCS to manage a Novell server utilizing Console one...etc..

Using ProSoft as a model for costing would be I think feasable. We have MAC's in our School division and are using ProSofts Novell client.

Again a number count of who would commit would be a good indication of whether to go forward or ....whatever... You can count me in

I have no information on this. I briefy discussed the need/desire for one at Warpstock San Francisco last October, but that was about it. That said, if we could get enough people to commit real $$ in terms of promises to pay licensing fees, I'm sure that the talent exists to create an updated client. Look at the latest Mac clients from ProSoft Engineering: far superior to any of the previous Novell offerings, both in terms of performance and feature set.
