TOPIC

    We are using an application on a NetBoot client but it sometimes does not perform as expected. The software should be compatible with iMac and Mac OS 8.5.1. Can you explain?


DISCUSSION

    Applications developed prior to the release of Mac OS X Server and Macintosh Manager may need updating to be fully compatible with Macintosh Manager or client NetBooting. As with any new software release, this is to be expected.

    Apple has released a Developer Technical Note describing how to create "NetBoot Server-Friendly Applications." This note was published in February 1999 to assist developers in writing software that functions as well on a NetBoot client as any other computer.

    The following Knowledge Base article can help you find the Tech Note mentioned here:
