Chapter 4. Novell Clientless Operation

Since the philosophy of Novell's ZENworks line of product is to reduce the cost while increasing the productivity of managing servers, workstations, and networks, it was only a matter of time before a clientless solution was introduced. ZENworks for Desktops 4 introduces new architecture that enables you to manage workstations that do not have the Novell client installed on them.

This allows you to use the ZENworks for Desktops management features to distribute applications, maintain hardware and software inventory, create images and remotely manage workstations that do not have a Novell client installed, whether they reside inside or outside of your corporate firewall.
