OSF DCE Administration Guide--Introduction

OSF DCE Administration Guide—Introduction

• Whether to conﬁgure the component as a local server, global server, clerk, or time

provider (for DTS)

• Whether to conﬁgure the component as a System Control Machine, Private File

Server, File Server, or File Location Database Server (for DFS)

The ﬁle is thoroughly annotated and can be used simply by uncommenting the lines that

install and conﬁgure the components you want. The # character indicates a comment

line. Remove the # to uncomment the line. For example, to install the Security server,

change the following line:

#install sec # Security Server

to look like:

install sec # Security Server

Note that the text # Security Server following install sec is a comment that

documents what will be installed by the line. Note also that comments also appear at the

beginning of each logical grouping of actions. For example, the following comment

appears at the begining of the lines that install components:

# install commands

#-----------------------------------------------------

# install <what>

# <what> := sec gds appdev sec-replica

# cds dts cdsbrowser

# client nidl_to_idl

# install dfs <which>

# <which> := client|scm|privatefs|fs|fldb
