  1. SNMPTT and Net-SNMP on Managing Huge Networks with Open Source Tools? · · Score: 1

    For handling traps I use SNMPTT with Net-SNMP. It allows for traps to be converted to more meaningful messages using variable substitution.

    I've seen it used in small and large environments.

  2. NDS vs Active Directory on Novell Launches Anti-Win2k Campaign · · Score: 1

    I'm both an MCSE and an CNE4, and I really really really really hate Microsoft's pathetic networking model of Domains and crap. DNS is far superior to NT's domain model. Now comes Active directory. I honestly haven't worked much with it yet, but I do know that it's basically an upgraded domain model. There's still domains etc etc, and it's crap. There are many reasons I hate NT's networking, but I'm not going to go over that here as much as I'd like to. When Novell officially releases NDS for Linux, I really hope the Linux community embraces it. It's far superior to Active Directory, and we certainly are not going to AD for Linux from Microsoft anytime soon or ever as it's basically a hacked up Domain model - which is crap. Check out http://developer.novell.com/ and check out the programming API. Hopefully it will be available for Linux soon!

  3. Re:At least MS had Y2K fixes for 3.1. Netware 3 DI on Novell Launches Anti-Win2k Campaign · · Score: 1

    There were fixes for Netware 3 and up. If you don't want the new features of Netware 5+, then don't buy them - you can still buy Netware 3 and 4.
