Novell Account Management 2.1 Upgrade

Novell Account Management 2.1 Upgrade ... from heterogeneous systems. Novell Account Management integrates Windows, Solaris, and Linux user management functions into NDS eDirectory so that you can easily and inexpensively manage a network comprised of multiple platforms and operating systems. Because businesses perform diverse tasks of varying complexity, utilizing the strengths of a variety of hardware and software products can save both time and money. But having heterogeneous networks can often work against productivity: incompatibilities between computing platforms and operating systems can create an administrative nightmare for network supervisors, and employees may find needed resources unavailable when a server goes down or if needed applications run on operating systems incompatible with their workstations. You can solve many of these problems with Novell Account Management, which creates one unified directory that manages all the resources on your network.

By leveraging the power of eDirectory, Novell Account Management helps you lay the foundation for e-commerce. You can extend your infrastructure across intranets, extranets, and the Internet to manage processes between your customers, employees, and supply-chain partners. You can also cut the costs of running a network: single point of administration, reduced hardware costs, compatibility with most network operating systems (NOSs), and superior fault tolerance are just a few of the ways in which Novell Account Management can ease the strain on your computing budget. Novell Account Management is based on open standards, which ensures current and future compatibility with most network protocols, devices, and applications.
