Chapter 1 Installing NetWare Services There are many steps to installing NetWare(r) Services (NWS) and operating with client workstations on a network. The first step is to install and configure UnixWare. See your UnixWare online documentation for details of structuring your NetWare Directory tree. Use this topic to + Install NetWare Services. + Install NetWare Directory Services(TM). + Install NetWare clients. For an overview of the installation procedures contained here, refer to ``Installation overview''. If it is desired that NetWare servers and clients operate over TCP/IP instead of (or in conjunction with) IPX/SPX, the NetWare/IP system should also be installed. Finally, administer the NetWare Services as described in your UnixWare online documentation. Chapter 2 Introduction NetWare Services(r) allow UnixWare systems to act as NetWare clients and UnixWare servers to act as NetWare servers. The NetWare Services software runs on a UnixWare system and uses UnixWare resources to provide NetWare services. For NetWare users, a NetWare Services server looks and behaves like a NetWare server because it provides the following services: + NetWare Directory Services (NDS(TM)). Provides a global naming service that is distributed across the entire NetWare network with a single point of administration. NetWare users log in to the Directory tree and, with appropriate rights, have access to any resource on the network, regardless of physical location. + NetWare file services. Supports multiple name spaces and a multi-level file access system. The name space feature allows users to view filenames in the naming conventions of their workstation's operating system. File access is controlled through trustee assignments to users and groups, inherited rights, and file attributes that can restrict rights to specific files. + NetWare print services. Allows NetWare clients to access printing resources on both NetWare and UnixWare printers. + NetWare client support and utilities. Allows workstations running DOS/Windows, Windows 95, OS/2 and UnixWare to log in to the NetWare server and share networked resources. NetWare provides each client type with a set of NetWare utilities that allow the users to configure their NetWare environment and to manage some aspects of the NetWare server. + NetWare account security. Provides secure NDS authentication with private key/public key encryption as well as numerous login restrictions. Installation overview After UnixWare is installed, you can proceed with the NetWare Services installation as follows: + Begin the installation using either the command line or the Application Installer. (See the topics ``Installing using the command line'' and ``Installing using the Application Installer''). + Either select a default configuration (as specified in ``Installing with defaults'') or customize (as specified in ``Customizing the installation'') your installation by doing the following: - installing your NetWare user license - configuring the server and SYS: volume parameters - selecting Client Kit options + When NetWare Services installation is complete, enter the following commands to rebuild the kernel: cd / shutdown -y -g0 -i6 + Install NetWare Directory Services. (See Chapter 4, ``Installing NetWare Directory Services''.) + Install your NetWare clients. While not mandatory, this is the next phase of installation. If you selected to install the Client Kit, you have installed the images for creating NetWare client diskettes. If you choose to make client diskettes, go to ``Making client diskettes''. Complete the process of installing clients using the NetWare Client for OS/2 User Guide and the NetWare Client for DOS and Windows User Guide. + Set up your printers. For information on printers, refer to your UnixWare online documentation. UnixWare package selections NetWare Services requires the following UnixWare packages be installed: _____________________________________________________________ For the server install For viewing documents online install _____________________________________________________________ nwnet base cmds Hardware and software requirements These are the hardware requirements for NetWare Services: + at least a 486/33 system + a 3.5 inch diskette drive installed as drive A: + the UnixWare system + 24MB of physical memory + 70MB free for disk space + 16MB for the NetWare Client Kit The installation program You should be aware of the following procedures as you work in the installation program. Making menu selections To make a selection on the installation menus, use the Spacebar to insert an asterisk between the parenthesis. The asterisk indicates your selections. The status line at the bottom of your screen indicates function key selections as follows: get help view parameter choices and save your selections and continue spacebar toggle through selections and insert asterisks Viewing system messages during installation To view system messages during the installation you can use the System Logs Manager. To access the System Logs Manager, perform either of the following steps whilest running in graphics mode: + Enter scoadmin at the command line. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``System'', then select the System Logs Manager. + Enter the following command: scoadmin system logs manager _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE When entering the name of a UnixWare manager on the command line, the manager name given as an argument to scoadmin is case- insensitive, so the following are equivalent: scoadmin directory services install scoadmin Directory Services Install _________________________________________________________________________ Exiting the installation Permanent changes are made to your system only after you select ``Accept all settings and install now'' from the Installation Main Menu. If you want to make changes you can cycle through the menus again. If you want to exit completely, select ``Exit without installing'' on the Preinstallation Menu. No changes will be made to your system. Chapter 3 Installing NetWare Services This topic provides a step-by-step procedure for installing the NetWare(r) Services software.

For help on rules for naming a Directory tree, press . 2. Specify the Directory tree name. Each Directory tree must have a name that is unique across the internetwork. (Most organizations have only one Directory tree.) The tree name enables clients to + Access data on multiple servers in a Directory tree without logging in to each server. + Log in to different Directory trees by specifying the tree name. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE Each Directory tree has its own database of objects that is not visible from another tree. Be aware of this limitation before creating multiple Directory trees. _________________________________________________________________________ 3. Set up time synchronization. Time synchronization is important to NDS, because it + Monitors and adjusts a NetWare server's internal time to ensure consistency of reported time across the network. + Indicates when a server's time is synchronized with the rest of the network. + Provides timestamps to establish the order of events in the Directory. _________________________________________________________________________ WARNING Setting up time synchronization incorrectly can cause network synchronization problems within the Directory database. _________________________________________________________________________ For more information on time synchronization, see your UnixWare online documentation. To enable time synchronization, you need to specify what type of time server category this server falls into. + At the ``Time Configuration Parameters'' screen, verify or specify time synchronization parameters. There are four time server types: - Single Reference - Reference - Primary - Secondary The default sets the first NetWare Services server in a Directory tree as a Single Reference server. All other servers default as Secondary servers. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE Do not change the time server defaults without a clear understanding of time server types. Press for help. _________________________________________________________________________ A screen appears. The cursor will be in the ``Time server type'' field. + (Conditional) If you want to choose a different time server type, highlight the ``Time Server Type'' field. A screen appears, prompting you to specify the server's NDS context. 4. Specify the server's context (name context). The server context, or name context, specifies where the server is located in the hierarchical Directory tree. The context is composed of + A company or organization name (example: O=Your Company). + Optional names of organizational units and subunits, such as divisions or departments (example: OU=Sales). + An optional country code (example: C=US). _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE For recommendations on how to lay out your Directory tree, see your UnixWare online documentation. _________________________________________________________________________ For example, if your NetWare server were located in the ``Sales_LA'' group of the Sales department of a company called Acme, the server's context would be OU=Sales_LA.OU=Sales.OU=Acme. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE The [Root] object is created automatically during NDS installation. _________________________________________________________________________ For information on context and naming conventions, see your UnixWare online documentation. + In the ``Company or Organization'' field, enter your company or organization name. Only valid characters (letters A through Z or a through z, numbers 0 through 9, hyphen, underscore) can be used. + (Optional) In the ``Level 1 (Sub)Organizational Unit'' field, enter an Organizational Unit name (such as a division or a department). Use this name to further specify your Directory tree. This could be a division name, a locality name, a department name, or anything that reflects your organization's structure. Notice that the information in the ``Server Context'' field is updated every time you enter a new name. + (Optional) In the ``Level 2 (Sub)Organizational Unit'' field, enter an additional Organizational Unit name. + (Optional) In the ``Level 3 (Sub)Organizational Unit'' field, enter an additional Organizational Unit name. You can manually enter more than three levels of Organizational Units into the ``Server Context'' field. Make sure you enter a period (.) as a delimiter between the name entries. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE For more information, see your UnixWare online documentation. _________________________________________________________________________ 5. The default common name (CN) for the administrator of the first NetWare Services server in a Directory tree is ADMIN. The installation program creates this User object ADMIN directly under the Organization (O=) level. The administrator can + Manage this Server object. + Manage User objects in this container. + Manage the Directory tree (applies only to ADMIN created on the first NetWare Services server). You can change the name of user ADMIN using the NETADMIN (or NetWare Administrator) utility after the server is installed and you have set up a workstation. 6.

After you have finished setting up time synchronization, you are prompted to specify a Directory administrator login name and password. 3. (Conditional) If the administrator's name is not displayed, enter the administrator's name. Enter the complete name of the administrator. This could be + your login name + the name of any User object with the Supervisor object right to this context + user object ADMIN For example, enter CN=ADMIN.O=Your Company Or, if you specified a country, enter CN=ADMIN.O=Your Company.C=US _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE For more information about complete context names, refer to your UnixWare online documentation. _________________________________________________________________________ When the first NetWare Services server is installed, the administrator's default name is ADMIN, but this name could have been changed after the first NetWare Services server was installed. There also could be more than one administrator in your Directory tree. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE Without supplying the correct name, you cannot install this server as part of the Directory tree. _________________________________________________________________________ 4. Enter the administrator's password. This password authenticates the administrator (the user installing the server) to the Directory. The server context screen appears. 5. Choose an existing NetWare context or specify a new one. If you want to place this new server into a context that has been previously defined, press at each organizational level to view existing container objects and choose the object you need. If you want to define a new context for this server, enter one or more new Organizations (O=) or Organizational Units (OU=). See the examples that follow. You can either place this new server into a previously defined context or you can specify a new context. By defining a context that does not exist yet, you ``create'' the context; that is, you create a new branch in the Directory tree. Assume the context of the only existing NetWare 4.1 server is OU=NEW_PRODUCTS.OU=MARKETING.O= YOUR COMPANY If you specify the new server's context as OU=SALES.O= YOUR COMPANY the Directory tree will have a new ``branch'' (Sales). After server installation, you can view your Directory tree using the NETADMIN or NetWare Administrator utility. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE By default, the installation utility adds a replica (duplicate) of the partition that contains the server's context only if the total number of existing replicas is less than three. You can modify partitions with the PARTMGR or NetWare Administrator utility, after server and workstation installations are complete. For more information on Directory partitions, see your UnixWare online documentation. _________________________________________________________________________ 6. To save the Directory information, press . A confirmation box appears. 7. Press to select Yes. 8. Review ``How does the Directory tree appear now?'' and ``What trustee assignments were created during the installation?''. How does the Directory tree appear now? The following objects were created in the Directory tree: + server object + volume objects (servername_SYS: and other volumes you specified) + user object ADMIN (the administrator who has Supervisor object rights to this context); the installation utility places this object directly under the Organization level + user object Supervisor (for bindery services purposes only); this object can be recognized only from pre-NetWare 4.1 utilities (user object Supervisor takes on User object ADMIN's password) _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE User object ADMIN is created only once, and only on the first server in the Directory tree. _________________________________________________________________________ These objects are placed in the same context you defined for your server. What trustee assignments were created during the installation? The following assignments were created: + User object ADMIN has the Supervisor object right to the [Root] object. By inheritance, ADMIN also has the Supervisor right to all Volume objects in the Directory. + [Public] has the Browse right to the [Root] object. [Public] is equal to the group EVERYONE in the NetWare 3 environment. + Any container object has Read and File Scan rights to the PUBLIC directories of all system volumes in that container. + The [Root] object (or security equivalent) of a tree has the Browse right to all User objects in that tree. This can be blocked by an Inherited Rights Filter or removed from a container's trustee list (ACL). + The [Root] object has the Read right to the member property of any Group object. + The [Root] object has the Read right to the following properties of any Volume object: host server name (the server that the physical volume resides on) and host resource (the physical volume). + All User objects have the Read right to their own properties and to the properties of any profile they belong to. User objects also have Read and Write rights to their user login script. For more information, see your UnixWare online documentation. Exiting the Directory Services installation utility The installation of the NetWare Directory Services is now complete.

The NetWare Server Status window appears, displaying the server's status. 2. Click on ``Start''. The following status message appears: The server is coming up. Please wait. Alternately, the server can be started by entering the following command: /sbin/tfadmin nwserver _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE This method causes server startup to proceed in the background. In order to monitor its progress, enter tail -f /var/adm/log/osmlog A message is displayed when the server is up, and that NetWare Directory Services can be installed. At this point, press INTERRUPT to exit from monitoring the startup log and return to the command line. _________________________________________________________________________ Stopping the server To stop the server, complete these steps: 1. In graphics mode, start up the NetWare Server Status utility in either of the following ways: + At the command line, enter the scoadmin command. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``NetWare'', then select ``NetWare Server Status''. + Enter the following command: scoadmin netware server status See the note on the case of characters in scoadmin command lines in ``Viewing system messages during installation''. The NetWare Server Status window appears, prompting for a ``grace period'' and whether mail should be sent to current users. 2. Click on the up and down arrows to choose a ``grace period'' before the actual shutdown. This allows users time to finish whatever they are doing and log out. The default value is 60 seconds. 3. (Conditional) Click Yes if you want to send a message to users, then type the message. 4. Click on Stop. The following message appears: The NetWare Server is coming down This message appears when the shutdown is in progress. You can click on Abort to cancel the shutdown. The server can also be shut down using the nwshut(1Mnws) command: nwshut -gn where n is the grace period in seconds. Specifying 0 shuts down the server without a grace period. Adding and deleting licenses This topic describes how to add and delete NetWare server licenses. You can add licenses during installation using the ``Install NetWare user license'' menu. If you choose not to add licenses at that time your server defaults to a one-user system. NetWare Server licenses are additive. For example, if you install two 10-user licenses, you have 20 user licenses. Use the NetWare Services Licensing application to add and delete licenses at your convenience. The licensing changes take effect the next time you start the server. Adding licenses To add user licenses, carry out the following steps: 1. In graphics mode, start up the NetWare Licensing utility using either of the following methods: + At the command line, enter scoadmin. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``NetWare'' then select ``NetWare Licensing''. + Enter the following: scoadmin netware licensing See the note on the case of characters in scoadmin command lines in ``Viewing system messages during installation''. The NetWare Licensing window appears. 2. Click on Add when the license number appears. A window appears with the following message: Insert license diskette in drive and press . 3. Insert the license diskette into the appropriate drive. The license file containing the number of connections to be added to the system is copied to the hard drive. When the process is complete, the ``Total'' field changes to reflect the number of licenses. If this is the first license file you are adding, the Server Serial Number is updated. If this is not the first license file, this field is not changed. It always reflects the serial number of the first license file added. 4. Click on Close to close the window. Deleting licenses If you need to move user licenses from one server to another, use the following procedure: 1. Ensure that the server is not running. See ``Stopping the server'' for details. 2. In graphics mode, start the NetWare Licensing utility using either of the following methods: + At the command line, enter scoadmin. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``NetWare'' then select ``NetWare Licensing''. + Enter the following: scoadmin netware licensing See the note on the case of characters in scoadmin command lines in ``Viewing system messages during installation''. The NetWare Licensing window appears. 3. Highlight the line in the list with the serial number and number of connections you want to delete. You can highlight more than one line at a time. 4. Click on ``Delete''. The Server Serial Number and Total lines reflect the change. 5. Click on ``Close''. Making client diskettes Use the following procedures to make diskettes to install NetWare clients on your network. The number of diskettes required is determined by the operating system of the client for which you are making diskettes; screen information indicates the number required. The diskettes do not need to be formatted. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE You must make all required diskettes in succession. If you need to stop during the process, you must start again with diskette 1. _________________________________________________________________________ 1. In graphics mode, start the NetWare Client Disks utility using either of the following methods: + At the command line, enter scoadmin. When the scoadmin window appears, select ``NetWare'' then select ``NetWare Client Disks''. + Enter the following: scoadmin netware client disks See the note on the case of characters in scoadmin command lines in ``Viewing system messages during installation''. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE You must have system administrator privileges to use the Application Installer. _________________________________________________________________________ The NetWare Client Disks window appears. 2. Select one of the operating system options from the pull-down menu. 3. Click Yes if you want error-checking on each client diskette. The default is ``No''. Verifying diskettes requires more time. 4. Click on OK to initiate your selections. A window appears. 5. Insert an appropriately labeled diskette into the drive and click on Apply. A window appears indicating the system is copying the diskette. When it is complete, the ``NetWare Client Diskette: make diskettes'' window reappears. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE If you cancel during the procedure make sure the drive light is off, indicating the drive is available before you remove the diskette. _________________________________________________________________________ 6. Insert the next diskette and click on Apply to continue making diskettes. Messages appear indicating the copy was successful. With the diskettes for your NetWare clients complete, you are ready to install the clients. Go to Chapter 6, ``Installing NetWare clients''. Chapter 6 Installing NetWare clients This topic provides a basic overview of the procedures for installing a NetWare client on your network. Before you can continue setting up your network, you must install a single client. From a client, you can run either NetWare Administrator or NETADMIN to start creating objects on your network. Installing NetWare client software Before you can install the client software, you must have access to installation diskettes for NetWare Client(TM) software. Use the information in ``Making client diskettes'' to make client diskettes. When you have client installation diskettes available, use the following information to locate installation procedures for your particular client operating system: + If you want to install NetWare client software for DOS and Windows clients, refer to ``Installing a DOS and Windows Client''. + If you want to install NetWare client software for OS/2 clients, see ``Installing an OS/2 client'' Installing a DOS and Windows Client DOS and Windows clients share the same installation program. The installation program runs within the DOS environment. The following list describes the prerequisites: + An IBM PC (or compatible) with an XT, AT, 386, 486, or higher (SX or DX) processor. + A hard drive or a floppy drive and diskette with the following amount of available disk space: - DOS only: 1.2MB - DOS and Windows: 4MB + A network board installed in your client computer. + Network cabling. + (Optional) A computer cabled to the network and running Windows 3.1. If you are using Windows, close Windows before loading the installation program. The client installation program modifies some Windows files that are used when in Windows. + At least one UnixWare NetWare Services server installed. + The appropriate number of diskettes labeled as specified when you created the client diskettes. Complete these steps to install the client: 1. Exit Windows. 2. Insert the NetWare Client for DOS and Windows Installation Diskette #1 into your diskette drive. 3. Change to the drive containing the installation diskette. For example, to install from drive A:, enter A: 4. Load the installation utility by typing INSTALL 5. Follow the installation instructions on your screen. Default settings for the NetWare Client software should be sufficient for an initial connection. You can do a standard installation with the default settings and configure other options later. Use the arrow keys to move between the fields. Press to modify a particular field. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE Diskette #5 contains additional network drivers. If you are not prompted to insert the fifth diskette, your system does not require it. _________________________________________________________________________ 6. Exit the installation utility by pressing the key. 7. Reboot your computer. For your modifications or new installation to take effect, you need to reboot your computer. Installing an OS/2 client Review the following checklist to make sure you are prepared to install the NetWare Client software for OS/2. The following list describes the prerequisites: + An IBM PC (or compatible) with a 386 or 486 (SX or DX) processor. OS/2 v2.x operates only with 386 (SX and DX) processors and above because of its 32-bit architecture. + A hard disk with 4.5MB of storage. + A network board installed in your client computer. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE If you specify an interrupt for the network board that is already being used by another device, you can still install the network board, but the network software will not run successfully. _________________________________________________________________________ + Network cabling. + At least one UnixWare NetWare Services server installed. + The appropriate number of diskettes labeled as specified when you created the client diskettes. Complete these steps to install the client: 1. Start the OS/2 client and open an OS/2 full screen or window. 2. Insert the WSOS2_1 diskette into the diskette drive. 3. Change to the drive where you inserted the diskette and enter INSTALL 4. From the Installation menu, select ``Requester on Client''. 5. Follow the screen prompts and the online help to finish installing the Requester. Because this computer is being installed to get you started with the network setup, you can do a standard installation with the default settings and configure other options later. During installation, a directory called NETWARE is created for the Requester files on the drive you booted OS/2 from. 6. Exit the installation program by selecting ``Exit'' from the Installation menu. 7. Remove the diskette from the drive, and then select the OS/2 shutdown feature to reboot the computer. For your modifications or new installation to take effect, you need to reboot your computer. Chapter 7 Installing NetWare/IP This topic provides installation and configuration of NetWare/IP (NWIP), which enables users of NetWare servers and clients to use TCP/IP as their transport protocol. NWIP can coexist with IPX/SPX on the standard NetWare network, Any system can be configured to use the NWIP and IPX/SPX stacks simultaneously. For a description of the NWIP protocol, see your UnixWare online documentation. Installation NetWare/IP is installed automatically as a part of the ``nwnet'' package, but it is not selected as the default transport protocol of choice. You must also install the ``inet'' package to be able to use the TCP/IP protocol stack. This is required so that IPX/SPX can be tunneled over UDP/IP. Before NetWare/IP can be used, you must use the Network Configuration Manager in Configuring LAN connections to configure TCP/IP over the network interface(s), and then to configure IPX/SPX over TCP/IP. See your UnixWare online documentation for a description of the NWIP configuration parameters. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE Only root or the owner of the system can use the Network Configuration Manager. _________________________________________________________________________ Once NetWare/IP has been installed and configured, the system must be rebooted for the changes to become effective. Configuration NWIP configuration can be carried out using the Network Configuration Manager. See your UnixWare online documentation for a description of the NWIP configuration parameters. _________________________________________________________________________ NOTE NWIP does not function as a forwarding gateway. While all of the SAP/RIP information received from the IPX stack will not yet be sent to the NWIP database, all of the SAP/RIP information received from the NWIP database will be forwarded to the IPX side. _________________________________________________________________________ Deconfiguration To deconfigure NWIP, use the Network Configuration Manager to remove IPX/SPX from over TCP/IP. The system must be rebooted for the changes to take effect. Logging and tracing The NWIP daemon logs all of its activities, warnings and errors in the log file nwipd.log in the standard log directory, /var/adm/log. These are also all displayed on the console. Four levels of message are logged by the daemon: + ERROR + WARNING + INFO + DEBUG The command line switch can be used for setting the level of messages to be logged. When logging to the file, the existing log file is renamed to nwipd.log.old after a pre-determined number (300) lines have been accumulated, and a new log file created for subsequent lines. This prevents the log file from growing too large. Messages logged to the file have the following format: Label: Date: Type: Message Label always reads ``UX:nwipd'', Date gives the date and time at which the message was generated and Type is one of ERROR, WARNING or INFO (DEBUG is logged as type INFO). The following are examples of logged messages. All messages are read from message catalogs, and are thereby locale-dependent. UX:nwipd: Fri Aug 6 12:09:43 1997: ERROR: No device configured (lan_1_adapter) for NW/IP UX:nwipd: Fri Aug 6 12:09:43 1997: ERROR: Exiting with error code 1
