NetWare is a network operating system developed by Novell, Inc. It initially used cooperative multitasking to run various services on a PC, and the network protocols were based on the archetypal Xerox XNS stack.
NetWare established the dominant position in the market in the early and middle 1990s by developing its XNS-derived IPX/SPX protocol as the local area network (LAN) standard. At the end of the 1990s, with Internet connectivity booming, the Internet's TCP/IP protocol became dominant on LANs also. Novell however took several years to adapt NetWare to operate natively over TCP/IP, opening a window for Microsoft to assert its market position and make Windows NT the dominant LAN network operating system.
NetWare evolved from a very simple concept: one or more dedicated servers were connected to the network, and disk space was shared in the form of volumes. Clients running MS-DOS would run a special Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) program that allowed them to map a volume as if it were a local hard disk. Clients had to log in to a server in order to be allowed to map volumes, and access could be restricted according to the login name. Similarly, they could connect to shared printers on the dedicated server, and print as if the printer was connected locally.
