[nflug] novell login

[Richard Hubbard]

The longin client doesn't login to a server, rather it logs into a 
service. This isn't just symantics.  the Novell Directory Services (NDS) 
is the service that is being used for authentication on the network.  
These services can be run from a Novell Netware server, or they can be 
run from a Linux server. (I think you can also set up NDS to be run by 
Windows, but don't quote me on that.)  Lately Novell has been moving 
away from the concept of Novell Netware as an operating system because 
it's too expensive to keep updating the OS, especially when it's the 
service doing the authentication.

Don't ask me how to do it though...
