    2. Update all Novell Netware for SAA (pre-2.0 versions) to version 2.0
      1. Version 2.0 is available, even though versions 2.2 and 3.0 are latest releases, because 2.2 and 3.0 require NDS services [only exist in Netware 4.x and later]
      2. If you are prevented from installing NDS exploitive services, or if your installation must remain a pure NetWare 3.x environment, Novell continues to make NetWare for SAA 2.0 available. This version is compatible with NetWare 3 and does not require NDS. All stratifications of this product will continue to be supported. Note that, while it will continue to be supported, there is no change or feature update planned for the NetWare for SAA 2.0 product. It maintains its session based stratification.
      3. SAA 2.0 already compliant
    3. Update all client PC software with 3.2 workstation software
      1. Will require configuration at each PC
      2. Capability of automatic update exists
