I would like to know if we need to have Windows Active Directory to
host a .NET application or a .NET application can be hosted on a
Novell platform?

Thanks

A .NET application needs the .NET runtime to work - so you'll need to
be running your app on a WINDOWS computer with the .NET framework
installed. You CANNOT run your .NET app on a NOVELL SERVER, if that's
what you're asking.

That has nothing to do with Active Directory vs. Novell NDS.

..NET supports interfacing with and using resources from both Active
Directory and Novell eDirectory by means of the
System.DirectoryServices namespace.

But even so - your app per se has to run on a WINDOWS computer with
the .NET framework installed - that's all the requirements there are.
