We use an old version of Novell at work, and I am the only Mac in the house. I have been using the Panther version of the Netware client for os x for more than a year, waiting to upgrade my machine at work to Tiger. I was very happy when this version came out. But it turns out to be a pig. I can't save to, or open from the network!! Prosoft support says this is a known bug!!! Now I'm fsck'ed. I can't downgrade to Panther without a wipe and install. So I am stuck wating for a patch. DON'T UPGRADE YET!!!

Don't Upgrade Yet!! - gregK
Not surprising at all. Prosoft is taking the approach of forcing an upgrade for Mac OS support, rather than giving Mac OS users easy access to their legacy products. Of course, convincing typical vendor-lock-in CTOs to upgrade their Novell installations for Mac support is laughable, so chaulk up yet another mark in the Loss column for Novell.Na na naaa na, na na naaa na, hey heeeey hey, goodbye (to your stock options)
