Macintosh OS X Server
Customer Support
TCP/IP record imparting to Macintosh customers utilizing Network File System (NFS), and File Transfer Apple File Protocol 3.0
Interoperability
Macintosh OS X Server utilizes the Open Source SAMBA to give Windows clients Server Message Block (SMB) record sharing. System File System (NFS) gives you a chance to make envelopes accessible to UNIX and Linux clients.
Document and Print Services
Macintosh OS X Server gives backing to local Macintosh, Windows, UNIX, and Linux document sharing. Conventions upheld include:
Apple document administrations (AFP 3.0) from any AppleShare customer over TCP/IP
Windows (SMB/CIFS) record sharing utilizing Samba
System File System (NFS) for UNIX and Linux record access
Web (FTP)
Fabricated in print administrations can spool records to any PostScript-proficient printer over TCP/IP, AppleTalk, or USB. Mac clients can utilize the LPR support in Print Center or the Desktop Printer utility to associate with a mutual printer. Windows clients can utilize their local SMB/CIFS convention to associate with a mutual printer.
Print administrations for OS X Server
Mac and UNIX (LPR/LPD)
Windows (SMB/CIFS)
Security
Numerous client building design and client level access benefits.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) bolster gives scrambled and verified customer/server correspondences.
Secure Shell (SSH) gives encryption and confirmation to secure remote organization.
Kerberos support for incorporated login verification.
Netware
NetWare has been an awesome LAN working framework for quite a long time, yet just as of late (with NetWare 5.x has NetWare moved past the LAN to where it can without much of a stretch be a piece of bigger systems. Until as of late, Novell NetWare used to be the absolute most-utilized system working framework (NOS). Be that as it may, first Windows NT, and Windows 2000 and Linux, have consistently eaten into the NetWare piece of the overall industry for system working frameworks. At present, every one of the three working frameworks have a generally equivalent offer of the system working framework market, which implies that NetWare is still utilized as a part of no less than 33% of all server frameworks.
NetWare highlights
NetWare offers the accompanying elements :
Multiprocessor portion: This element empowers one NetWare working framework to use numerous processors. This procedure is called symmetric multiprocessing (SMP). SMP empowers processors to share memory and transport ways, notwithstanding organizing the handling of a solitary application in parallel.
NLMs: Where UNIX utilizes daemons and Windows uses administrations, NetWare utilizes NetWare Loadable Modules (or NLMs) to give administrations from the server. NLMs are projects that keep running out of sight on the server to give reliable administrations to the system.
PCI Hot Plug: This element empowers executives to powerfully design PCI system parts while the framework is running. You can supplant, update, or include new cards with the Hot supplant, Hot overhaul, and Hot extension highlights, individually.
Customer Support
NetWare 5 accompanies Novell Client programming for three customer stages: DOS and Windows 3.1x, Windows 95/98, and Windows NT.
Interoperability
You can set the Novell Clients for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT to work with one of three system convention choices: IP just, IP and IPX, or IPX just.
Validation
Concentrated login validation
Record and Print Services
Record Services NetWare offers two decisions of commonly perfect document administrations: Novell Storage Services (NSS) and the conventional NetWare File System. Both sorts of document administrations let you store, arrange, oversee, get to, and recover information on the system. NSS accumulates all unpartitioned free space that exists on all the hard drives associated with your server, together with any unused space in NetWare volumes, and spots it into a capacity pool. You make NSS volumes from this capacity pool amid server establishment or later through NWCONFIG. Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS) is the default and favored print framework in NetWare. NDPS underpins IP-based and also IPX-based printing.
Security
Novell has support for an open key base incorporated with NetWare 5 utilizing an open authentication, created by RSA Security.
