Migrating from Netware to Windows
A big task which we'll be tackling at my university in the coming months is whether we should start phasing out Novell Netware, and what should we establish for our replacement server farm (primarily file and print sharing). Some people will want us to move to a complete Linux evironment, but I'd prefer to move to Windows Server 2008 if it comes out in time for us to make the switch. Ever Server 2003R2 is a possibility. Are there any good resources that describes how to migrate a Netwarefile storage to a Windows Server environment. My first impression is that it's not as flexible as Netware volumes, but it's probably more that it's just different from Netware. Any information on this topic would be appreciated.

Here's the Microsoft planning guide from Netware to 2003. If you follow it and DO NOT deviate from it it'll work surprisingly good. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/techinfo/overview/sfnmig.mspx
