Microsoft "Microsoft has forged a deal with a University of Michigan research unit to create an open-source version of the NFS version 4 protocol that will work with Windows. Microsoft already offers NFS support in Windows client and server, but for Version 3 only."

"Are you talking about the Novell iFolder that came with NetWare 6? Or some Apple iFolder thing?


iFolder from Novell which is now an open source and free to use for anyone:

http://www.ifolder.com/

I don't know what you're paying CND$40,000 for unless you see that you require amount of support etc. IFolder was opensourced around 2-3 years ago and has been an open source project under the guidance of Novell since then.

Ah, cool, didn't know they open-sourced it. The last time we paid for Novell Netware licensing (3-ish years ago) it was $40,000 CDN for the district, for less than 10 servers. That was the final nail in Novell's coffin in the district ... we uninstalled everything with Novell in the name.
