“It all boils down to what you’re looking for in a network
operating system (NOS).”
“Do you want it lean and flexible so you can install it any way
you please? Perhaps administration bells and management whistles
are what you need so you can deploy several hundred servers. Or
maybe you want an operating system that’s robust enough so that you
sleep like a baby at night?”
“The good news is that there is a NOS waiting just for you.
After the rash of recent software revisions, we took an in-depth
look at four of the major NOSes on the market: Microsoft’s
Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Novell’s NetWare 5.1, Red Hat
Software’s Linux 6.1 and The Santa Cruz Operation’s (SCO) UnixWare
7.1.1. Sun declined our invitation to submit Solaris because the
company says it’s working on a new version.”
