Use the following instructions to install or upgrade NDS
or Windows 2000 server.

System Requirements

" A Windows NT server 4.0 with Service Pack 4 or later (or Windows 2000 Server) and
an assigned IP address.
" A Pentium* 200 with a minimum of 64 MB RAM (128 MB recommended) and a
monitor color palette set to a number higher than 16.
" (Optional) One or more workstations running one of the following:
! Novell
! Novell Client for Windows NT 4.5 or later
! NT client
" Administrative rights to the NT/2000 server and to all portions of the NDS tree that
contain domain-enabled User objects. For an installation into an existing tree, you
need administrative rights to the Tree object so that you can extend the schema and
create objects.
NOTE:
The [Root] object, used in earlier versions of NDS, has been renamed to Tree
in NDS eDirectory 8.5.

Hardware Requirements

Hardware requirements depend on the specific implementation of NDS.
For example, a base installation of NDS eDirectory with the standard schema requires
about 74 MB of disk space for every 50,000 users. However, if you add a new set of
attributes or completely fill in every existing attribute, the object size grows. These
additions affect the disk space, processor, and memory needed.
