When to Use Web Manager
There are several management tools included with NetWare 6. Some are Web
or browser-based, and others require a Windows client, as with NetWare
Administrator. And while you can perform basic object management tasks in
eDirectory, Web Manager’s primary purpose is to provide you with a tool for
configuring and managing Web services.
In addition, Web Manager is a home page to other NetWare management tools,
providing you with one-click access to them.
To help you decide when to use NetWare Web Manager or one of the other
management tools, the following table offers a description of each tool and its
intended use.
