Where's that? I thought Novell was pretty much a has-been (thanks, Bill!) and I've never even heard of iFolder or iPrint before. Based on some quick googling, it looks like iFolder is a network-mounted home directory that's internet-accessible and iPrint is a reinvention (or maybe an implementation?) of the Internet Printing Protocol. Granted, NFS isn't something I'd want to run over today's internet, but it sounds like iFolder and iPrint are just NFS and CUPS for Windows. Whoopty-do. So Linux can't keep up with networking because Novell is innovating new features that Linux already has? -- When we reduce our own liberties to stop terrorism, the terrorists have already won. - reverius Innocence is no protection when governments go bad. - Tom Swiss
