Configuring a NetWare Server as a DNS Server (Optional)
In addition to standard services, a NetWare server can be configured to
provide DNS services. The DNS Server setup is done after completing the
NetWare server installation.
Setting the Server Time Zone
The server time and time zone are important in order to synchronize network
events. Advanced time synchronization settings are available during the
Customize section of the installation.
Setting Up Novell eDirectory
Novell eDirectory provides global access to all networking resources.
eDirectory allows users with the proper access rights to log in to the network
and view and access network resources.
Network resources such as servers and printers are presented hierarchically in
an eDirectory tree. Users log in to the eDirectory tree with a single login name
and password instead of logging in to specific servers.
