Don't worry, you were clear.  I was just somewhat surprised that
Caldera/Novell decided to drop most of the software and go with just
NDS, and I wanted to highlight some of the possible alternatives.

But NDS doesn't provide file/printer sharing, does it?  I thought it was
basically an authentication/information framework like NIS or LDAP.  I
think the Mars_nwe developers will keep working, but I don't have a
crystal ball..
