Very Computer

I have connected Novell users to the Exchange server using the NT user
account IUSR_server but when I do there is not password to their mailbox
except the one for the IUSR_server account.

I know I could set them up each an NT account and It would work but my
server is Per Seat and that would cost a lot in licenses.

If anyone has a suggestion I'm wide open.

NT and Novell mixed is a pain.

Exchange has nothing to do with the amount of NT licenses required for
NT.  Neither does the number of NT accounts.

Actually, that's not completely true.  You have to log onto the domain to
access your Exchange clients... to do that you must log onto the NT Server.
Once you do that, you are then using File sharing to access the Exchange
program.  So, it is the Exchange license that doesn't matter and the NT
license that DOES matter.

Nope.  You must *authenticate* with the NT domain, not perform a traditional logon
in the sense of using file and printer sharing, or other "basic network services",
which requires the NT cal.

Exchange is a client-server application, and does not require direct access to any
files on the NT server (or printers).  Therefore Exchange does not require
an NT cal.

"If a customer does not use Windows NT Servers basic network services, they do
 not currently need to purchase any Windows NT Server Client Access Licenses.
 This occurs when a customer uses Windows NT Server as a platform for one or
 more Microsoft or third party server applications, but uses another network operating
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 system (e.g., Novell) to provide basic networking services. "

Only if you dont know what you are doing

Why would you want to use the anonymous account?

You dont need to do that. Just set up an account in Exchange for each user
and DONT create a corresponding NT user account.

 It all depends on what a pain is. (To paraphrase Bill Clinton) For the
uninformed yes it could be. My recommedation is take a course in networking
OS (Novell and NT) Then RTFM for Exchange
