Multi-Operating System Networking : Living with UNIX, NetWare, and NT

Here is all the practical, hands-on information required to build, manage and maintain a heterogeneous computing environment with hardware, software, and network equipment from a number of different vendors. Packed with real-world case studies and proven techniques for integrating disparate platforms, operating systems and servers, Multi-Operating System Networking is a one-stop, no-nonsense guide that shows how to port and develop applications in a heterogeneous environment; manage desktops, data access, communications, and security in a heterogeneous environment; and, build distributed heterogeneous systems. Heterogeneous computing is here to stay. It is therefore up to corporate end-users to make competing products fit into their environments efficiently, effectively and economically.
