520			_aIt is critical that you are informed and make the right choices when it comes to Network Operating Systems (NOSs): the success and efficiency of your network depends on it. Written in an understandable and non-technical style, this book will help you avoid potential pitfalls by answering the following questions for you: What is a network operating system and when do I need one? What are the main types of NOSs and how do they differ? Can I buy a cheap and cheerful NOS for small LANs? How do I choose a suitable NOS for my systems? Can I have more than one NOS running on my network? How does the NOS provide the LAN with access to other networks and computer systems? What is the role of NOS in network management? What are application programming interfaces (APIs) and how are they supported in the NOS? What is network computing and what is the role of the NOS in this? How is the NOS likely to evolve? What is client/server computing?
