BUS203 — Turning a Windows 2000 Migration into a Competitive Win
Often, the decision to migrate away from NetWare is made on the basis of perceived functionality of a 3rd party product and a poor understanding of NovellÆs complete product offering. This session is a case history and success story that chronicles a decision to migrate from NetWare to Window 2000 in order to accommodate the requirements of an alternate messaging product and how a partner was able to reverse that decision by better understanding the clientÆs business problem. Attendees will learn how the partner recognized an opportunity by positioning an upgrade to NetWare 6, in combination with GroupWise 6, iFolder, iPrint, and eDirectory and leveraged the clientÆs existing investment in NetWare to help them achieve their business goals. The near loss was turned into a big win for the Novell and the partner resulting in over 6 months of systems integration work and incremental product revenue for Novell. The client ended up with a fully integrated solution that supports 300 users in 8 locations in four countries on three continents. Both the partner and the client are now looking at Novell Nterprise Branch Office as a further refinement to the overall solution. This session is aimed at salespeople, business owners and technical people who are involved in the architecture and sales of SMB oriented solutions.

BUS243 — How the University of Michigan has Implemented DirXML and Kerberos
This session will explain implementation of a project at the University of Michigan that uses a subscription service to create user identities in the campus eDirectory tree using DirXML, and uses Novell's Kerberos capabilities to enable authentication through the university's central Kerberos system. The system provides delegated administrators the ability to 'subscribe' to the DirXML provisioning system, and control the users that get created in their respective containers. It also allows departments to customize their own identity creation, including options for setting passwords, using templates, group memberships, file system and directory rights assignment, and password security attributes. The provisioning system also populates attributes required for Kerberos authentication. This enhances the pre-existing eDirectory implementation on campus by giving unit administrators ready access to centrally-created user accounts allowing them to concentrate on providing services instead of provisioning accounts. Come to this session to learn how the solution was designed and implemented.

BUS291 — Mesaba Airline's Highly Available and Disaster Recovery Solutions with the XIOtech MAGNITUDE and Novell NetWare
In December of 2000, days before the busy Christmas season, a server failure hosting critical flight dispatching applications for Mesaba Airlines (dba Northwest Airlink) failed, resulting in the cancellation of over 350 flights. Seeking a highly available solution, Mesaba approached XIOtech and Novell. By using Novell NetWare, Novell Cluster Services and booting off the XIOtech Magnitude SAN, Mesaba has accomplished this goal. In May of 2001, Mesaba Airlines once again met with XIOtech, this time in search of a disaster recovery solution. The goal was to mirror all critical data to a location 10 miles away. Using Netware 6, Nishan and XIOtechÆs REDI SAN Links/REDI Copy, the final result was a design that was simple and reliable and has been expanded to many non-disaster recovery related practices, increasing overall productivity for the organization.

The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SC DHHS) contracts with more than 40,000 public and non-profit organizations, credentialed medical professionals, and private businesses to provide Medicaid, child care, and aging services. The agency wanted to give every one of it's employee's the ability to be a mobile worker, particularly Medicaid eligibility employees that work across 150 hospitals and offices throughout the state. Without budget for a private network infrastructure, the agency sought a Web-based solution that would give employees secure anytime, anywhere access to all of the applications and resources needed to do their jobs, as well as the security required to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). In this session, attendees will learn how SC DHHS employed a variety of Novell solutions, including Novell exteNd, to build a secure, directory-enabled employees portal with back-end integration to Web applications, and a secure, accessible interface for both employees and affiliated Medicaid eligibility workers.

BUS365 — Enterprise Dashboards: Real-time Infrastructure Drives Strategic Decision Making
Getting the most up-to-date information to the right people at the right time has become a business priority, and a significant IT challenge. Intelligent enterprises are using IT to accelerate the delivery of real-time information to managers on a daily basis. A popular method of displaying information is through dashboards, which places key information to key decision makers as soon as the information becomes available. To accomplish this, IT infrastructure needs to support real-time data capture, direct legacy application integration, and a shortened latency between the data input and data capture process. This session will show how Novell exteNd was leveraged to create a systems infrastructure capable of enabling organizations to capture real-time information, from most any data source or legacy application. This solution also enables Identitech to manage and add intelligence to that data. Customized information is presented in a portal environment with rich personalization capabilities that delivers business critical information to key decision makers as soon as the information becomes available. The dashboard is also actionable so that the decision maker can use the display to make decisions as well as act upon them.

TUT161 — Web Services 101 and XML: The Language of Data Integration
"Web Services" is more than a mantra: it's a practical, working strategy for realizing the benefits of a Services Oriented Architecture (integration, interoperability, maintainability, and more) using tools available now. Learn how your company can leverage the relatively simple concepts behind WSDL, SOAP, and XML to build robust integration applications that are "discoverable" (with UDDI and WSIL); that can interoperate seamlessly with other services (your own, or a trading partner's); and that can be rewired, reconfigured, or upgraded quickly, with minimum test/debug time; all without sacrificing security, scalability, reliability, or reusability. But to truly understand the benefits of Web Services, you need to look beyond the logic framework to the data framework: a framework built on the copackaging of data with metadata (in the form of XML). In this session, you will get a nuts-and-bolts look at how and why technologies like XPath, XSD, XSL, and XForms pave the way to a services-driven future that all participants benefit from. And, you'll see how, with the right tools, you can make the Future happen Today. Don't miss this exciting, information-packed overview of the technology paradigm shift that is rocking the IT world.

TUT286 — Examining the New Features in Apache 2.0
In April of 2002, the Apache Software Foundation officially released Apache 2.0. Although there is still some maintenance work going into Apache 1.3, all new features and enhancements will only be added to Apache 2.0. In addition, the Apache Software Foundation is strongly encouraging users to upgrade to Apache 2.0. So what's new in Apache 2.0 and why should you upgrade? If performance and features aren't enough for you, how about the fact that Apache 2.0 will be the only web server shipped in the upcoming release of NetWare? This session will discuss many of the new features of Apache 2.0 for NetWare including new modules and configuration. We will discuss migrating from Apache 1.3 to 2.0 and how to configure some of the standard apache modules included with Apache. This session is targeted for those that are new to the Apache Web Server as well as experienced Apache users.

TUT287 — Migrating from the Enterprise Web Server to the Apache 2.0 Web server
NetWare Nakoma will ship with the Apache 2.0 Web Server rather than the Enterprise Web Server which shipped with previous versions of NetWare. This means that you may want to consider migrating to Apache 2.0 when your server is upgraded to Nakoma. To make this migration as seamlessly as possible, the Nakoma installation program will run a perl script to automatically configure Apache 2.0 to match your existing Enterprise settings as closely as possible. This session will take a close look at what the migration perl script does, and offers solutions for how to make the transition from Enterprise to Apache as smooth as possible. A review of how the Enterprise directives (found in MAGNUS.CONF and OBJ.CONF) map to Apache directives (found in HTTPD.CONF) will be presented. Finally, any migration steps that could not be automatically configured by the script will be noted so that proper plans can be made to address these steps.

While simple MIME encryption ensures that a message can't be read by anyone other than its intended recipient, PGP Mail for GroupWise also gives you the flexibility and power to use digital signatures to ensure the message creator's identity and the integrity of the messages. In this session, we will demonstrate how to deploy and use PGP Mail for GroupWise in order to combine encryption and digital signatures in securing your e-mail, attachments, and instant messages, preventing attempts to eavesdrop or alter mission critical communication. Presenters will also demonstrate how to use PGP Admin with NDS integration to define the servers from which client installations automatically retrieve up-to-date policy settings and keyrings. Settings pre-configured by PGP Admin are cryptographically locked to prevent individual users from overriding them, which guarantees regulatory compliance, consistency and adherence to policies throughout an organization.

DHO162 — Introduction to Novell exteNd Composer
Although the inherent interoperability and other benefits of a Web Services architecture are widely acknowledged, the payoff from such an architecture can only be realized if services can be rapidly developed and tested; are robust and reusable; can leverage existing (legacy) enterprise systems unobtrusively; and can be deployed into a high-performing, standards-compliant runtime environment compatible with enterprise requirements for stability, scalability, and security. Nailing all the points in this requirements matrix is a tall order. But it can be done! Come to this session to learn how exteNd Composer (Novell's XML integration broker and Web Services development toolset) actually delivers on the promises of Web Services by taking standards-based rapid application development (RAD) to the next level. Find out how you can XML-enable (and SOAPify) non-XML-speaking systems: terminal data streams (3270, 5250, Telnet, etc.), JMS providers (MQSeries), EDI, SAS functions, X.500 directories, and RDBMSes. And do it all with visual tools, not raw Java code. If you need to leverage Web Services technologies today so you can realize a payback now. You owe it to yourself, and your IT staff, to attend this dynamic session.
