With Novell Software you can address the key issues of:
issues which we believe will be crucial to most organizations during 2011.
Wouldn’t it be useful to attend technical training where topics like these were addressed at the same time as technical insights, roadmaps and futures presentations? Well, now you can!
The event is two and a half days long with multiple tracks running throughout. There will be senior Novell staff speaking from various locations around the world including Provo in Utah and the Development Center in Bangalore. This will be the first time an event of this kind has been run and as places will be limited due to the size of the venue you are advised to book early. On the Monday evening there will be a Meet the Experts reception where attendees will have the chance to meet Novell staff, speakers and other delegates to discuss their ideas and issues. During the event there will also be an opportunity for delegates to book one-on-one face time with the speakers to discuss specific topics – these will be available on a first come first served basis after booking.
The event will be held in the Novell Offices in Bracknell, UK, starting at midday on Monday 21st February and closing at 4pm on Wednesday 23rd February. There will be at least three parallel streams running through the event so that we can cover the maximum amount of material resulting in hopefully a session of interest to everyone in each slot.
The cost of attendance will be £385 (plus VAT if applicable). NDS8 are however offering a reduction of £100 per person for the first fifty people who sign up. In order to receive a personal discount code for the booking form send an email to events@nds8.co.uk stating your name, organization, and telephone number. NDS8 will then email you a discount code by return. .
The full agenda along with which sessions will be run in parallel will be published in approximately 10 days time.

Astaro put out the following release - seems to have reappeared on a lot of security sites.
The Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh (RCPE) has implemented Astaro's all-in-one security appliances to safeguard the College's IT infrastructure and significantly reduce the time spent by the IT team on email management. The RCPE is a professional membership organisation representing over 10,000 medical professionals worldwide, and uses email as a core communication channel with members. The College had relied on its ISP to manage its anti-spam and anti-virus solutions but found that the security system in place was also impacting the delivery of legitimate traffic. Using the Astaro Security Gateway appliances, the College now has the ability to easily manage its anti-spam and anti-virus services in-house and has established a finely tuned system for identifying email security threats. "Previously, we were seeing too many false positives in our spam, where legitimate email traffic would not get through. The filters would be sent over to the IT team, where we would have to wade through to find any legitimate emails, which took up a lot of our resources. With Astaro, the number of false positives has been reduced to almost zero, while individual users can now check their own spam email lists as well. We estimate that we have reduced the amount of time spent on managing spam by around 95 percent, which removes a significant burden from the IT team. We also have greater control over the security set-up if we require it," explained Inez Hyde, IT Manager at the RCPE. The two Astaro ASG 220 UTM appliances also replace the College's previous Novell BorderManager firewall, which was approaching its end of life date. Hyde added, "We decided to look at alternatives to the Novell product that could provide the College with a cost-effective, more comprehensive security platform and that would be easy to manage in the longer term. Working with our IT partner NDS8, the Astaro UTM appliances were deployed quickly and provide us with all that we need to keep the College secure. Overall, we are extremely happy with the Astaro solution."

With a small IT department servicing a large number of users, Tangible Group wanted a standardised, centrally controlled e-mail infrastructure that would be easy to manage—but with companies in the group using Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Notes and Novell GroupWise, administration was complex.
Tangible Group decided to upgrade to the latest version of Novell GroupWise—taking advantage of significant improvements to the Mac and Linux clients, as well as more advanced calendaring features. As users of Novell GroupWise for almost eight years, Tangible Group was confident when its long-time IT partner NDS8, a Novell Platinum PartnerSM, recommended the upgrade.
Collaboration is central to Tangible Group's success, and Novell GroupWise has enabled enormous improvements in this area.
"The external calendar feature has made our personal assistants' lives much easier, as they can now organise complicated schedules more easily," said Watson. "Equally, the ability to customise personal dashboards means employees can tailor the user interface to suit their preferences and maximise productivity."
The ability to manage the Novell GroupWise servers remotely means that if problems occur, the Tangible Group IT department can respond swiftly and efficiently without the inconvenience and cost of travelling to another site.
