Here is another "problem" with Novell and windows. When one
does a File Open, the dialog box that contains subdirectories 
does not contain the .. entry anymore. Consequently, moving
backwards in the subdirectory structure is slightly more te-
dious (one types .. where you usually type the filename).

Also, file manager doesn't respect the MAPping of Novell 
drives, reverting to the root, which makes it REALLY tedious
to get where you want to go (especially if there are 250
users on your server).
