Novell
Client
The Novell Client should be installed by experienced technical
personnel only. Although the Novell client usually installs
without incident, problems may occur with your system requiring
advanced knowledge of the client software and UTSW network.
Pre configured for UTSW
Simply run the executable and the client will install with
the appropriate settings for UTSW already configured.
Zipped Client
Zipped (non self extracting client). You must download and
then extract the client locally before running. Provided for
those experiencing problems running the preconfigured client
above
Macintosh Client
No client software is required for Macintosh OS 10.x workstations to access MEDNET volumes, as all user volumes support SMB/CIFS protocols.
