We are a NetWare shop also and I look at this as a definite positive! 
To be able to run Apache, MySQL, and other applications to tie,
natively, into NDS without having to change the config files extensively
and recompile to work with NDS would be WONDERFUL!  I truly look forward
to it, if I have not moved on before then...who knows in this day and
age.

Sorry didn't follow the link. I work in a NetWare shop, my boss has
been a 
true believer in NetWare for more than a decade. He told me yesterday
that the 
version 7 will run natively on top of the Linux Kernel. That's pretty
cool. No 
more having to load DOS on a machine just to boot into NetWare.

I'm also told they are going to officially support AMP (Apache, MySQL
and 
PHP/Perl) so now you can have NAMP boxes in place of your LAMP boxes,
if you'd 
like.

Personally, I'm sticking with LAMP. NetWare's always made a great file
server, 
but Linux still has many advantages over it, IMO.
