Netstorage Authentication Is Not Persistent By Default; Netstorage Maintenance; Novell Afp Implementation And Maintenance - Novell OPEN ENTERPRISE SERVER - PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 12-2010 Implementation Manual

Authentication to other file systems is often controlled by other authentication domains. For
example, you might create a storage location on the OES 2 server that points to a legacy NetWare
server that resides in a different eDirectory tree. To access this storage location, users must
authenticate to the other tree.
This means that you must specify an additional context in the NetStorage configuration as a non-
primary authentication domain.
When defining a non-primary authentication domain, you must

Ensure that the username and password in the non-primary domain matches the username and
password in the primary domain.

Specify the exact context where User objects reside. NetStorage doesn't search the subcontexts
of non-primary authentication domains.
For more information about managing NetStorage authentication domains, see
Domains" in the OES 2 SP3: NetStorage Administration

17.7.5 NetStorage Authentication Is Not Persistent by Default

By default, users must reauthenticate each time they access NetStorage in a browser. This is true
even if another browser window is open and authenticated on the same workstation.
The reason for this is that persistent cookies are not enabled by default.
This setting can be changed. For more information, see
NetStorage Administration

17.7.6 NetStorage Maintenance

Your NetStorage installation can change as your network changes and evolves by providing access
to new or consolidated storage locations. For information about the kinds of tasks you can perform
to keep your NetStorage implementation current, see the
Guide.

Maintenance
To use the Novell implementation of AFP file services on your OES 2 server, you must install the
service by using the instructions in the
