To implement a server-based multivendor solution, software must be loaded on the server to provide services for a particular client. For example, if a Windows Server 2003 network includes Macintosh computers, the administrator can add Services for Macintosh to any of the Windows server operating systems. Windows Server 2003 NOSs include this service, which supplies a simple solution for Macintosh connectivity. With Services for Macintosh installed on a Windows server, Macintosh clients can connect to resources on the Windows server. This service also converts files to Macintosh format automatically when retrieving them from the server. This automatic conversion enables Macintosh users to share files with any other user connected to the Windows server where Services for Macintosh is installed. Another benefit of using Services for Macintosh is that Macintosh users can access resources on a Windows server in the same way they access resources on a Macintosh server. This feature, which allows easy transition from a Macintosh-only network, is also available in other Windows server services, such as Gateway (and Client)Services for NetWare. Similarly, Windows servers can be outfitted with Windows Services for Unix, which can provide NFS server functionality on a Windows computer, and Samba can be configured to allow Windows-compatible file and printer sharing.

One of the biggest trials of a network administrator's job involves connecting systems that use different vendors' _________________________ (NOSs).
