Does Windows 7 connect to a NETWARE 5.1 Server?

Thanx for your answer

i am not a 100% networking expert; however; in past experiences with netware;(took some classes a long time ago) I dont see why you shouldnt be able to connect to a netware server via windows.i believe all thats needed is a proper login script with the proper commands, etc. to connect to it.

Windows 7 Professional contains no Connection to Netware 5.1, but I could dowload one on novell.com.

XP was the last Windows client OS that supplied a Netware client. Windows 7 does not. Novell has a client for Windows 7 Professional and above. The Microsoft client for Netware was very limited and provided only the necessities.

I haven't used a Novell client since Windows 2000, and that wasn't with Netware 5.1 or TCP/IP.
