  • server's O/S, the client's O/S & the redirector have to be compatible
  • Different clients have to be able to understand each other to communicate. How can you get this done?
    • the client solution
      • implement the appropriate redirector on the client, the redirector forwards your request to the appropriate destination
      • use multiple redirectors to communicate with different clients

NetWare Client and NT Server
    • the server solution
      • install a service on the service
      • E.g. to let MAC clients share network resources, add Service for Macintosh; Add FPNW for NetWare clients
