The best start for getting this information would be to contact both Novell developer's relations (for the server part of your questions) and Microsoft developer's group (for the client end). If you already have some developer stuff then you probably already have Novell DPD's phone numbers (800-729-4357, or 512-794-1795). And from reading your message you're really asking about network services access through Windows. Unfortunately it seems that if it exists, it will exist at both Novell and Microsoft. (seems ripe for finger pointing..) I would encourage you to ask your question through both Novell and Microsoft developer's groups. (I don't have any of the MS developer info handy, maybe someone else could help..) Jason -- ---- ---- Jason Lamb jlamb@Sed.Novell.COM ---- ----
