In the next step in its campaign to achieve a vast expansion of the data it carries on its telephone network, AT&T Corp has teamed with Novell Inc to offer AT&T NetWare Connect Services, providing a more straightforward means for users to extend their their NetWare local area networks over phone lines, sending and receiving data and facsimile messages and linking networks, and tie mobile users into their company network back at base. The new AT&T NetWare Connect Service will become the underpinning for the agreements with Xerox Corp on document transmission and with Lotus Development Corp on Notes. The service will support Novell’s IPX and the Internet’s TCP/IP protocols, and users will be able to connect through AT&T’s InterSpan Frame Relay Service remote access through InterSpan Information Access Service with dial-up option, and via AT&T’s EasyLink electronic mail system.
