Novell has defined three DHCP options for eDirectory. These options
eliminate the need to provide this information each time users log in.
Option 85 provides the IP address of one or more eDirectory servers for the
client to contact for access to the eDirectory database. Option 86 provides the
name of the eDirectory tree the client will be contacting. Option 87 provides
the eDirectory context the client should use.
Refer to Internet RFC 2241, DHCP Options for Novell Directory Services,for
more detailed information about using these options in NetWare 6.
