2.7.1 Installing or Updating Novell eDirectory 8.8 on Windows
2000 or Server 2003
You can install eDirectory 8.8 for Windows without the Novell Client. If you install eDirectory 8.8
on a machine already containing the Novell Client, eDirectory will use the existing Client, or update
it if it is not the latest version.
1 At the Windows server, log in as Administrator or as a user with administrative privileges.
2 To resolve tree names, make sure that SLP is correctly configured on your network and that
SLP DAs are stable.
For more information, see one of the following:
Appendix C, "Configuring OpenSLP for eDirectory," on page 147
DHCP Options for Service Location Protocol (http://www.openslp.org/doc/rfc/
rfc2610.txt)
OpenSLP Documentation (http://www.openslp.org/#Documentation)
3 If you have Autorun turned off, run setup.bat from the Novell eDirectory 8.8 SP2 CD or
from the downloaded file.
The installation program checks for the following components before it installs eDirectory. If a
component is missing or is an incorrect version, the installation program automatically
launches an installation for that component.
NICI 2.7
For more information on the Novell International Cryptographic Infrastructure (NICI), see
the
NICI 2.7 Administration Guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/nici27x/
index.html).
You might have to reboot the server after the NICI installation. The eDirectory installation
will continue after the reboot.
Novell Client for Windows.
IMPORTANT: The Novell Client is updated automatically if you have an older version
of the Client already installed on the machine. For more information on the Client, see the
Novell Client for Windows (http://www.novell.com/documentation/lg/noclienu/
index.html)
online documentation.
