I'll check it out. Thanks.  Does it support doing things like Novell/MS
integration (Dynamic Local User, Roaming profiles stored on Netware
server, etc) like Zenworks?

You might want to take a look at the new release of RES PowerFuse
(6.03). It has many things to offer more then ZEN can...
Would be interested to see how much easier (or harder) it would be
using
RES PowerFuse instead of ZEN...

Have you tried Zen4 yet. It has much improved Terminal services
support.

We did an implementation with Zen3.2 last year for a client and it
worked but there was a lot of mucking around you had to do to get it
to
work properly. We had to escelate numerous calls to Novell for support
as there was lots of issues encountered.

Im about to start an implementation for a large client running Zen 4
so
I will be very interested to see how much easier it is. So from the
prep
work done it looks good.=20

    The point of DLU (I think) is to displace the need for Active
Directory
    anything. You use NDS (eDirectory) instead. The Citrix farm
could just
    be in a simple Windows workgroup vs. Active Directory tree.  The
roaming
    profile controlled by Zenworks can be stored in the users Novell
home
    directory or any networked drive accessible by the user.  There
is no
    need for creating the user in the local SAM as it is done by DLU
on the
    fly.
    I haven't attempted to run a mixed Novell/Zenworks and Microsoft
AD
    environment so I can't really speak to how or if it works. I
suspect you
    would need a tool like DirXML or Metadirectory services to sync
up the 2
    directory services otherwise you would have to manually sync
user ID's
    and passwords (unrealistic with real security and real users).
Anyone
    on the list done this?  I wouldn't mind hearing about your
experiences.

    Ok, thaks for your response, but if i use DLU user volatile, can
i use
    roaming profile and mantain working the farm such as Windows
2000 =3D
    Active
    Directory integration? The roaming profiles can be read from a
share =3D
    whitout
    users in  local SAM?

    Thanks
