I think you will find a lot of sympathy from the Netware Admins.  We run
Netware and FreeBSD here, and find it a good combination.Most admins of
Netware are looking for something non-M$ to put their trust in.  Something
that doesn't fight against Netware.  And Since Netware just sent to using
X on their server, (running CDE) you might get more enthusiasim.  Try to
sell it as a solution to things that Netware doesnt do, not a a
replacement.

We run FreeBSD as a WEB SErver, DNS, and backup printing to Novell..
Keeps us from having all our eggs in one basket.
