Interoperating with Other Networks

As mentioned before, the Windows NT redirector allows connections to LAN Manager, LAN Server, and MS-Net servers. It can also coexist with redirectors for other networks, such as Novell NetWare® and Banyan® VINES®.

While Windows NT includes integrated networking, its open design provides for transparent access to other networks. For example, a Windows NT user can concurrently access files stored on Windows NT and NetWare servers.
