Novell OPEN ENTERPRISE SERVER 2 SP2 - PLANING AND IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 11-10-2009 Implementation Manual page 120

You can use Novell Remote Manager on a NetWare server if you aren't sure which address to
use.
You can also list additional DA addresses, separated by commas.
4 Return to the
Configuring for DA Access Before or After Installing the OES 2 Server
Whether you configure DA access before installing OES 2 on a SLES 10 server or after a
simultaneous install of SLES 10 and OES 2, the manual DA configuration process is the same.
1 Open
2 Find the following line:
;net.slp.useScopes = myScope1, myScope2, myScope3
IMPORTANT: The example in the configuration file is misleading because the spaces after
each comma are not ignored as one might expect them to be.
Therefore, the scope names created or configured by the statement after the first comma
actually have leading spaces in them. For example, the first scope name is "myScope1" but the
scope names that follow it all have leading spaces, " myScope2", " myScope3" and so on. This
is a problem, especially if one of the later names becomes the first name in a subsequent SLP
configuration and the leading space is ignored.
If you use the scope names given in the example, remove the spaces between the entries.
3 Modify the line by removing the semicolon and typing the name or names of the scopes you
want this server to have access to.
If you aren't sure about the exact scope names, you can view the SLP configuration of a
NetWare server on the same network segment. Log into Novell Remote Manager on the server
and click Manage Applications > SLP.
You can list multiple scopes, separated by commas (no spaces).
For example, you might change the line as follows:
net.slp.useScopes = Directory
4 Find the following line:
;net.slp.DAAddresses = myDa1,myDa2,myDa3
5 Modify the line by removing the semicolon and typing the actual IP address of the Novell SLP
DA (using Novell Remote Manager if necessary).
net.slp.DAAddresses = IP_Address
6 Save the file and close it.
7 At a terminal prompt, enter the following to restart the SLP daemon and reset its configuration:
rcslpd restart
8 Enter the following commands to verify that the DA and scopes you configured are recognized.
slptool findsrvs service:
The DA server should be listed.
slptool findscopes
The scopes should be listed.
