Sympathies.
NT has some applications, but .... The Netware server will out perform the NT server with less resources, will support namespaces of multiple operating systems and is easier to manage as well.

We are a rather large newspaper, and we are ditching our Novell Network
and going to NT Server and planning to run NT Workstation on all other
machines. We do have some Mac machines that will be on the network using
TCP/IP. My boss is wanting to bring in a seperate Apple Server to service
just the Mac machines..

My question(s) are:

1) How well does NT talk with MACS on TCP/IP?

2) Does MAC write in its native file system or is it translated to
the NT naming sequence?

3) What kinda hardware and system resources do I need to expect for
13 graphically intense workstations?

Thanks in advance. With all the problems with the List.. Please email me
your responses directly. I have to make a decision by the end of the week.
