My experiences with NetWare came about 2 decades after most in this thread, but thought it would be fun to share anyway. My high school used some version of NetWare for all of the XP-based machines the students could access. I specifically recall having login form with a red Novell banner across the top.
Anyway, since the desktops were pretty tightly controlled, we ended up storing a copy of Unreal Tournament 99 out on the school's file share. It was buried several directories deep with some innocuous filename to help prevent detection.
Each day before class started, a group of us would login, download the UT99 files, and drop into a LAN game. We had basic Dell Dimension systems but they were more than adequate for the game, so we'd frag it out every day for 10-20 minutes before class.
