NetStorage on Linux provides local and Web access to files on many systems without requiring the

Access Methods Authentication Target File Systems Solution: NetStorage
Browser or PDA access is
critical to those who must
travel. However, access
method support varies
widely among file service
providers. Authentication helps
protect information
assets, but having diverse
authentication methods
leads to frustration and
lost productivity. Having diverse file
storage services only
adds to the complexity
and confusion. Novell NetStorage ties
all of these issues
together with an easy-
to-administer, easy-to-
use solution.
