netware 3.12 white windows xp home station

Although Novell doesn't support it, the client seems to work with XP Home.

There seem to be some idiosyncrasies, at least through XP Home SP2, which
caused problems when synchronizing Netware and Windows passwords for
workstation users existing at the time the Novell client was installed.
Deleting and recreating users seemed to resolve the problems.

I'm not certain if SP3 or the newest client versions fixed or aggravated
those problems, however, as I learned to avoid Windows XP Home.
