2 Use auto-created common proxy user in eDirectory configuration for the OES services.
3 Use iManager to create a system user (proxy user) to be used for the OES services.
4 Use the Yast install to configure the Novell AFP and Novell CIFS services as follows:
4a Use an auto-generated common proxy user for all the services.
4b Specify the contexts under which to search for the AFP or CIFS users.
5 If the AFP/CIFS/Samba user objects are present on NetWare servers, upgrade Novell Security
Services version 2.0.6 in order to upgrade to NMAS 3.2 on NetWare.

Administrators need to decide whether these servers should be installed on a new domain or as
additional domain controllers during capacity planning and deployment design. Follow the
SP3: Domain Services for Windows Administration Guide
S5
1 Use an auto-generated common proxy user for all the services.
S6
Use the same procedure as for S5.
S7
Use the same procedure as for S5 and S6.
S8

AFP and CIFS on NetWare don't require proxy users or password policies for service access.

NMAS needs to be upgraded to 3.2+, if this server hosts the only writable replica for a partition
with AFP or CIFS users.

If this NetWare box is migrated to OES2 SP2, the AFP and CIFS users are enabled for
Universal Password. They need to either use a plain text authentication method, or log in
through NCP (Novell Client) to synchronize their NDS passwords to the Universal Password.
AFP can auto-synchronize the Universal Password if the default DHX authentication method is
used.
