| 69195 | 2002-08-08 00:49:00 | one small thing i personally dislike is waiting for the intro to load BEFORE the skipintro sign comes up......grrrrrr........the wole idea of skipintro is so you don't waste time downloading it. i liked the background but the blue writing was far better than the grey. |

| 69197 | 2002-08-08 01:05:00 | Billy, My permanent student status (it takes a l..o..n..g time to get a degree part-time) came about when I was working at said school running the database and acting as helpdesk, network backup. That was when I did the Novell training. Tell me about the budgets! |

| 69198 | 2002-08-08 01:09:00 | Oh, and one small point on the difference between Novell and Microsoft networks . Novell do not install "Pinball" by default on the server! |

| 69199 | 2002-08-08 02:39:00 | Whew!! That's a relief honeylaser. After I sent that missive I suddenly had a serious touch of the ta ta's, like: "what if this is honeylaser's pride and joy I'm shredding here"? :8} It was certainly intended as constructive criticism and please, by all means pass it on, just don't let them sue me. :_| Re good examples? problem is they don't stick in the mind as well but i'll have a think and post a couple of URL's later if I can. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

After I sent that > missive I suddenly had a serious touch of the ta > ta's, like: "what if this is honeylaser's pride and > joy I'm shredding here"? :8} Not a problem. You'll notice the site was designed by Greenwood Technology (http://www.greenwood.co.nz/), rather than someone from here, and we are making moves to update it and make it more user friendly. No more grey on grey, the flash intro is still there, but its all in a single window. No more "references" page either. Just more product info, and less speel about stuff which isn't as relevant as it used to be. |

| 69201 | 2002-08-08 06:19:00 | The fact that this 200+ node site at a school is running "slowly" is an indication of how good the Novell system is . An MS system would be down . I bet that most "business" MS networks have users who will be sacked if they mess with the system . Novell NW isn't easy --- but no network system is . One thing worth looking at is the physical network . What's the collison rate? If all the files are on the servers, you will need to have fast network cards on the servers . Replacing hubs with switches might help . But it's going to be hard to keep such a big network going without money . |

| 69202 | 2002-08-08 06:38:00 | Who says Novell isn't easy?? Agreed I worked with Novell and only met Win 2K in a learning environment but Windows seemed far fiddlier - with more security holes. It sounds like time for a full System Analysis of the network conducted by people with the appropriate skills. It is also worth looking into Government grants for IT upgrading. |
