Hi all,

I read the ComputerWorld 29th November 1996 edition this morning.
I saw on page 20, "NDS - Novell gives it away".
"Novell is giving away its most prized possession -
Novell Directory Services (NDS) - in a bold gamble
to fight off threats from arch-rival Microsoft.
The company this week announced it will give away
NDS source code to any Unix operating systems
vendor, application developer or Internet Service
Provider that wants to resell the technology -
without paying royalties - as an integral component
of its product."

Anybody in Linux community would be interested to port NDS to
Linux? It would be a big boost for Linux too because it is
FREEEEEEEEE.

Regards,

Chai
