Creating eDirectory Objects to Facilitate File
Management
Creating a NetWare Server Object
When you install NetWare 4.x, 5.x, or 6 on a server, objects are automatically
created in the eDirectory tree to let you manage the server and its volumes.
You can create additional Server and Volume objects to manage the resources
of servers that are in other eDirectory trees or that are running earlier NetWare
versions. You can also create Directory Map objects to facilitate access to
commonly used folders on NetWare volumes.

created.
