The latest release features improved security and support for legacy OSs. According to Thursby Software Systems, Inc:

Today, at Macworld Expo in San Francisco, Thursby Software Systems, Inc. announced the new release of DAVE v5. Since the early days of Mac OS 8, DAVE has been the leading solution for connecting Apple Macintosh personal computers into existing Microsoft networks.

This major enhancement to DAVE was done with both state-of-the-art and legacy machines in mind. Recognizing that there is still a great need for continued Mac OS 9 support, DAVE v5 includes Windows Server 2003 support for Mac OS 10.3 as well as Mac OS 9.x systems.
