You havent experienced hell untill you have worked with netware 5/6.  Server or client, Windows is just fine, but try getting behind the wheel of Netware sometime.  *shudder*

heh. I managed to delete all partitions on the hard drive under netware. which meant the win2k server went too... I kinda prefer netware over windows, tho.

:eek::eek::eek:

I've found Active Directory so much easier to manipulate than eDirectory.  Any time I goofed with anything in my containers, I really screwed the system over.  Now, I haven't worked with Netware 7 which pretty much replaces the God-AWFUL OS they had in 5 and still runs eDirectory as it's database, I've heard it's quite nice, and I've heard that it's just as easy to use something else.  Though rolling a bindery database up into an eDirectory database, well, at least the project we worked on, was painful.  Nothing I did worked, and I followed the course manual's instructions to the letter.  I don't feel so bad because half of the class had the same exact problems.  Needless to say, next semester the instructor changed the curriculum to be pure Netware 6/eDirectory.  Tree integration for my capstone class was sheer terror too.  most of the people in the class could merge trees across the network to the master server just fine, except for a few individuals, who's trees were considered valid, but the data did not integrate over to the master.  Even the instructor couldnt' suggest anything, so they had to wipe thier servers clean and start anew, with a week left in class. 

Then when time came around in another class that focused on webservers, we did something bold, and stupid.  We used Win2K for our server, but used Tomcat as the web server.  I was screaming at the group "USE IIS DAMNIT!!" but they had to use Tomcat because one guy uses a Windows XP machine as a web server for his business.   :nervous:  Tomcat refused to run properly, but the server and Active Directory & all the objects were rock solid.  Damn smooth.  I guess I'm an M$ guy when it comes to servers.

I was in High School, then our school computers got Nimbda which hosed all the computers in the school that weren't Crapintoshes.


And then there was the time when M$ decided to come out of nowhere and audit the schools computers for the entire district. Greedy bastards........
