Book description
Using a hands-on approach, this book guides NetWare and UNIX administrators and users through the integration process. Since many readers are comfortable with only one platform, clear explanations and examples are provided. The book is organized by services (file sharing, file transfer, printing, etc.), so the reader can immediately turn to areas of interest.

These are divided into categories of artificial intelligence, multimedia, virtual reality, science fiction, humour, cyberpunk, games, chatting (primarily IRC), sex and UFOs. The other resources may be listings for commercial services (there *is* an artificial intelligence "forum" on CompuServe), the occasional description of a shareware program, and lots of pictures identified as "found on the Internet".
