NOVELL SHIPS NETWARE/IP 2.1 - NETWARE 4 EDITION ENHANCES TCP/IP PROTOCOL
ACCESS FOR NETWARE 4.1 CUSTOMERS

Provo, Utah -- May 31, 1995 -- Continuing its commitment to provide
protocol independence for its customers, Novell today announced the
release of NetWare/IP 2.1 - NetWare 4 Edition for use with the NetWare 4.1
network operating system. NetWare/IP enables NetWare 4 networks to be
seamlessly integrated into Transmission Control Protocol/Internetwork
Protocol (TCP/IP) environments. NetWare/IP allows users to run the NetWare
network operating system and its services over IP as an alternative or in
addition to the Internetwork Package Exchange (IPX) transport protocol.
Novell began shipping fulfillment orders to customers in April.

NetWare/IP 2.1 has helped us exist in an IP environment," said Dave Lange,
information consultant for the Forest Resources College of the University
of Washington. #The new architecture is superior to the old IP tunneling
technology. We're happy that Novell has recognized the demand customers
have for protocol independence and has decided to bundle NetWare/IP with
NetWare 4.1."

Novell has the largest installed base of TCP/IP solutions in the market,"
said Toby Corey, vice president of Marketing for Novell's NetWare Products
Division. #We recognize that our customers may want to run IP exclusively
or in a mixed environment with IPX. Novell is committed to providing equal
support for both protocols for every product that we ship. NetWare/IP 2.1
provides superior performance and integration with the NetWare 4.1 network
operating system, and the fact that we're offering it free of charge shows
our dedication to protocol independence."

advantage of NDS authentication for administrative tasks without the need
