SUMMARY

Microsoft Systems Management Server version 2.0 now includes support for Novell NDS and Bindery emulation.

Recently, Novell has introduced its own version of the Internet Protocol TCP/IP. Microsoft's Systems Management Server is not designed with network connectivity using Novell's version of TCP/IP.

It is not recommended that this protocol be used because Systems Management Server systems will become unstable and functionality may be greatly hampered.

Microsoft has not done any testing of TCP/IP other than its own for support and use with the Systems Management Server product. Microsoft Systems Management Server has not been tested and will not be supported under this configuration.
