Novell's NetWare is an operating system used to turn an Intel-based PC into a file server.
Users can share files, printers, and applications.
NetWare also allows centralized backup of files. NetWare is very flexible and allows very secure directories, wide-open directories, and everything in between. NetWare 3.12 requires a 386 PC or better. NetWare 4.1 runs best on a 486 or better. The amount of memory required depends on the amount of disk space to be added.
