EXHIBIT 10.1

                     SETTLEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE AGREEMENT

THIS SETTLEMENT AND MUTUAL RELEASE  AGREEMENT  ("Agreement") is made and entered
into effective this 31st day of October,  2005, by and between  INTERLAND,  INC.
("Interland")   and  NOVELL,   INC.,   ("Novell").   Interland  and  Novell  are
collectively referred to herein as the "Parties," and individually as a "Party."

                                    RECITALS

A. The  dispute  between  the  Parties  arises out of and relates to certain OEM
Agreements  between  Novell  on  the  one  hand  and  Micron  Electronics,  Inc.
("Micron")  and  NetFrame  Systems,  Inc.  ("NetFrame"),  on the other (the "OEM
Contracts").  Novell asserts that Interland is obligated to Novell under the OEM
Contracts as the successor-in-interest to Micron and NetFrame.  Interland denies
Novell's allegations in the litigation.

B. Novell filed a Complaint for Damages ("Complaint") in Case No. 990403118,  in
the Fourth  Judicial  District  Court for the State of Utah against Micron ("the
Litigation").  The Complaint  asserts claims for royalty  payments claimed to be
due under the OEM  Contracts.  During  the course of the  Litigation,  Interland
and/or Micron has asserted certain defenses and/or counterclaims against Novell.

C. Pursuant to the terms and conditions  set forth herein,  the Parties have now
agreed to entirely settle and resolve their dispute, and to mutually dismiss all
of their respective claims and defenses in the Litigation.
