"Context" shows you your current context in the Directory tree..
"Partitions" lists partitions in the current context and allows you to
browse the Directory tree to view other partitions. Objects that are
partition roots are marked with the partition icon.
"Create as New Partition" divides an existing partition to create a new
partition. The selected object becomes the root of the new partition,
and a master replica of it is created on the server where the master
replica of its parent partition is located.
"Merge partitions" merges a partition with its parent partition, leaving a
single partition. All replicas are merged as well. You must select a
partition below the [Root] of the tree to choose this option.
"Replicas" allows you to add, delete, view, or modify the existing replica
types for the selected partition.
"Server Partitions" lists replicas stored on the selected NetWare Server.
You must select a NetWare Server object before this option is
available.
"Abort Partition Operation" stops the operation you have begun (you have
either begun to create a new partition or merge a partition with its
parent partition.
"Delete Server" deletes a Server object and all its associated information,
including its partitions and replicas.

Administrator.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 72. Create a Partition ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a New Partition
When you create a new partition, you are dividing an existing single partition
into two separate partitions. No object in the tree can be a part of more than
one partition at the same time.
To create a new partition
1. Select a container object that is not already a partition root (shows no
icon to the left) from the list box.
2. Choose "Create as New Partition."
The container object is now the root object of a new partition and is
marked with the partition icon. A master replica of the new partition is
created and stored on the same server as the master replica of the parent
partiion.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 73. View or modify Replicas ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

1. Choose "Add replica."
The Add Replica dialog appears.
2. Select the NetWare Server object that you want this replica to be stored
on.
Only NetWare Servers that do not have a replica of this partition will be
listed to choose from.
3. Select a Replica Type.
For most replicas, Read Write should be used. Read Write replicas can be
written to. They send out information for synchronization when a change has
been made. Read Only replicas cannot be written to. They are, however,
updated when the replicas synchronize.
4. Choose "OK."
The new replica is created and you return to the list of replicas of this
partition.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 75. Change the replica type ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Change the replica type
1. Select the replica whose type you want to change.
Note: You cannot change the type of the Master replica. To specify a new
Master replica, change the type of an existing Read Write replica to
Master, and the Master replica will automatically be changed to Read
Write.
2. Choose "Change Type."
The "Change Replica Type" dialog appears.
3. Select a Replica Type.
For most replicas, Read Write should be used. Read Write replicas can be
written to. They send out information for synchronization when a change has

4. Choose "OK."
The replica type is changed as you specified. You return to the list of
replicas of this partition.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 76. Delete a Replica ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Delete a Replica
Deleting a replica deletes a copy of part of the Directory database. The
database can still be accessed on other servers in the network, and the server
that the replica was on still functions in Directory Services.
Deleting a server, on the other hand, deletes the replicas that were on that
server, but also removes the server from Directory Services so that users
cannot use the server or its volumes.
1. Select the replica that you want to delete.
You cannot delete the Master replica; that would be like deleting part of
the Directory database. If you need to delete the Master replica because it
is corrupted, first make a different replica the Master replica by
selecting it and changing its type to Master. The Master replica will
automatically be changed to Read Write.
2. Choose "Delete Replica."
The selected replica is deleted from the NetWare Server where it was
stored. Users who are attached to that server and need information from
objects in this partition will now have to cross the network to another
server that contains a replica of this partition.
3. Choose "OK."
You return to the list of partitions.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 77. Merge a Partition ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Merge a Partition
When you merge a partition, the selected partition is combined with its parent
partition. No object in the tree can be a part of more than one partition at
the same time.
You do not delete partitions. That would be like deleting objects from the
Directory tree. You only merge and create partitions to define how the
Directory tree is split into parts.
To merge a partition
1. Select the partition you want to merge with its parent.
You must select a container object that has the partition icon to the left
and is red. [Root] cannot be merged because it is the top partition; it has
no parent to merge with.
2. Choose "Merge Partitions."
All existing replicas of the selected partition are merged with the
existing replicas of the parent partition. The selected container is no
longer the root of a separate partition. This action make take a few
minutes.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 78. View Server Partitions ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
View Server Partitions
This dialog displays which partitions have replicas stored on the selected
server. Each partition is specified by the complete name of its root object.
This information allows you to see how many of this server's resources are
used by partition replicas, and how far across the network users might need
to go to find certain parts of the Directory database.
The data in this dialog cannot be changed; you change replicas by selecting a
partition in the previous dialog, and then choosing "Replicas."
You cannot see the type of each replica from this dialog.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 79. Delete a Server Object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Delete a Server Object
Use this option to delete NetWare Server objects from the Directory tree.
You must use the partition manager to delete NetWare Server objects so that
you can avoid deleting a server where the only replica of a part of the
Directory tree is stored.
A NetWare Server must be down or you cannot delete its object. If you delete a
NetWare Server, the only way to get it back is to reinstall it using the
INSTALL.NLM program at the server console, or create the object again using
the menus after bringing the server back up.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 80. Clone best replica data ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Rebuild Replicas
This option allows you to repair lost or corrupted information in a master
replica with correct information in a Read Write replica. Normally, Directory
Services considers the Master replica to be the source of the most correct and
latest information.
1. Select a partition.
2. Choose "Replicas."
3. Select a Read Write replica from the list of replicas for this partition.
4. Choose "Rebuild Replicas."
The Master replica is updated from the selected Read Write replica.
5. Choose "OK."

You would want to select Yes if, for example, one or more of the other
replicas had become corrupt or lost information, or if you had updated your
current partition and wanted to transfer that information to all the other
replicas.
Note: This operation may create a lot of network traffic, so it is best to run
this operation during a period of light network traffic.
If you select No, your current replica will not send updated information to

You need the Write property right to the ACL property of an object to add
trustees.
2. Select the objects you want to add to the list of trustees for this object.
If you have only the Add Self property right to the ACL property, your User

Delete a Trustee of this Object
1. Select the trustee that you want to delete from the "Trustees" list.
2. Choose "Delete trustee."
You need the Write property right to the ACL property of an object to
delete trustees.
If you have only the Add Self property right to the ACL property of this
object, "Delete trustee" will only be available when your User object is
selected from the list of trustees.
3. Choose "Yes."
The user that you deleted from the "Trustees" list will have rights to this
object only by inheriting them from other objects that are trustees, such
as by membership in a group that is a trustee of this object.
You cannot delete a trustee from the list if
- It is the only trustee of this object with Supervisor object right, and
- The object's Inherited Rights Filter blocks the Supervisor object right.
You must first grant another trustee the Supervisor object right, or make sure
the Inherited Rights Filter doesn't block the Supervisor object right. This
attempts to prevent you from cutting off Supervisor-level access to part of
the Directory tree.
Note: You can delete the User object that is the only trustee listed as
supervisor for an area. This will effectively cut off Supervisor-level access
to that part of the Directory tree. Be careful when deleting User objects!

You can define property rights for a trustee in two ways:
All Property rights define rights for this trustee that are the same for every
property of this object. These rights control all properties unless rights are
granted for a specific property as well.
Specific Property rights define rights for this trustee for one property of an
object. These rights, if assigned, override the "All Property" rights of the
trustee for only that specific property.
Example: All the properties of a Printer object are Read only, but users need
to update the Cartridges property. To allow users to update the Cartridges
property, select "Selected Properties;" then grant the Read right and the
Write right for the Cartridges property.

Example: Organizational Units SALES and RESEARCH are subordinate to
Organization BOSTON. SALES is a trustee of BOSTON and has Browse and Create
object rights to BOSTON. SALES inherits these rights for every object below
BOSTON, including RESEARCH.
RESEARCH doesn't want anyone to create objects in their part of the Directory
tree. RESEARCH adds an Inherited Rights Filter that includes only the Browse
right. This means that no one (including SALES) can inherit the Create right
in RESEARCH, but SALES still inherits the Browse right.
User ANDREW is a trustee of server CentralStation under RESEARCH and has the
Supervisor right. This trustee assignment bypasses the Inherited Rights Filter
and gives ANDREW the Create right.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 99. Add Object Trustees button ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Add Trustee button
Adds a new trustee to the "Trustees" list for this object. The new trustee is
chosen from the Select Object dialog and given specific rights that override
the Inherited Rights Filter.
Note: If you have only the Add Self property right to the ACL property, your
User object will be added as a trustee when you choose "Add Trustee"; the
"Select Object" dialog will not appear.
You can add as many trustees as you need. You must have at least the Write
property right on the object's ACL property to add trustees to it.
Define trustees as high as possible in the Directory tree. The fewer trustee
assignments you use, the easier it is to determine where an object's inherited
rights came from.
Example: Users in the SEATTLE Organizational Unit need rights to a Profile.
Rather than make each user a trustee of the Profile, make SEATTLE a trustee of
the Profile. Each user will have the same rights as SEATTLE. (If a user needs
more rights to manage the Profile, that user can be listed as a separate
trustee of the Profile.)
To grant a set of rights to a group of users who don't share a common
container, use a Group object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 100. Delete Object Trustee button ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Delete Trustee Button
Deletes a trustee from the "Trustees" list.You must have at least the Write
property right on the object's ACL property to delete its trustees.
An object that does not appear in the "Trustees" list will only have rights to
this object by inheriting them from objects higher in the Directory tree, by
security equivalence (for user objects only), or by membership in a Group
object that is a trustee of this object.
Note: If you have only the Add Self property right to the ACL property of this
object, "Delete trustee" will only be available when your User object is
selected from the list of trustees.
If a trustee is the only trustee of this object with the Supervisor object
right and the Inherited Rights Filter blocks the Supervisor object right, the
trustee cannot be deleted. This attempts to prevent cutting off
supervisor-level access to part of the Directory tree.

Property rights
Property rights determine what a trustee can do with the properties of an
object.
There are two ways to assign property rights:
All Properties rights define rights for this trustee that are the same for
every property of the selected object. These rights control all properties
unless rights are granted for a specific property as well.
Selected Property rights define rights for this trustee for one property of an
object. These rights, if assigned, override the "All Properties" rights of the
object for only that specific property.
Example: A User has the Read right to all properties of a Directory Map object
that points to an application. The User needs to change the location of the
application in the Directory Map. Therefore the User is granted the Supervisor
property right to the Path property of the Directory Map.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 120. Change the Selected Object's Object Rights to any object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Change this Object's Object Rights to an Object
1. Select an object from the "Assigned Objects" list.
Note: You can select multiple objects by holding down the <Ctrl> or <Shift>
keys. If an object is grayed, you do not have rights to change the trustee
assignment.
Object Rights with a checkmark (X) denote rights that are granted to the
objects.
2. Select the check box next to any object right that you want to change.
Note: If the Supervisor right is granted to this object, you cannot remove
it unless some other trustee also has the Supervisor right to this object,
or the Inherited Rights Filter allows other objects to inherit the
Supervisor right.
3. To reset all object rights to undefined, choose "Clear".
If you clear these rights, and no other rights are granted, the selected
trustee is deleted from the list of trustees.
Note: No rights in that list are granted, but they can be inherited if the
Inherited Rights Filter of the object you selected in the list allows them.
4. Choose "OK."
You return to the Browser.
If any check boxes are gray, one of the following conditions exists:
- No object is selected. Select an object from the list.
- Rights are undefined. These rights are not granted to this object.
- Two or more objects have been selected, and this object has different
rights to each. Select only one object or change the check box to change
that right to all selected objects.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 121. Change Assigned Property Rights to an object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Change this Object's Property Rights to an Object
You can define property rights to an object in two ways:
All Property rights define rights to the assigned object that are the same for
every property of the object. These rights control all properties unless
rights are granted for a specific property as well.
Selected Properties rights define rights to the assigned object for one
property of an object. These rights, if granted, override the All Property
rights to the object for only that specific property.
Example: All the properties of a Printer object are Read only, but this object
needs to update the Cartridges property. To allow this object to update the
Cartridges property, select "Selected Properties;" then grant the Write right
for the Cartridge property.

If you clear these rights, and no other rights are granted, the selected
trustee is deleted from the list of trustees.
6. Choose "OK."
You return to the Browser.
Example: A User has Read rights to all properties of a Directory Map object
that points to an application. The User needs to change the location of the
application in the Directory Map, and is granted the Supervisor property right
to the Path property of the Directory Map.
If any check boxes are gray, one of the following conditions exists:
- No property is selected. Select a property from the list.
- Rights are undefined. No rights are granted.
- Two or more properties with different rights have been selected. Select
only one property or change the check box to change that right for all
selected properties.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 124. Assigned Objects list box ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Assigned Objects List Box
Lists all objects that this object has a trustee assignment to. If an object
is grayed, you do not have rights to change the trustee assignment.
This object can still have effective rights to objects that are not listed in
the "Assigned Objects" list. These rights come from
- Inheritance
- Equivalence to another object (such as a Group) that is a trustee of this
object.
To see what rights make up this object's trustee assignment to the assigned
object, select that object in the list. You can change the check boxes to
change the rights to that object.
More about Effective Rights
Example: SALES, an Organizational Unit (under Organization BOSTON), has been
added to the Trustee list of BOSTON and granted Browse and Create rights.
SALES inherits these two rights for every object below BOSTON in the
Directory tree.
But RESEARCH, another Organizational Unit in the same tree as SALES (under
BOSTON), doesn't want anyone creating objects in their part of the Directory
tree: So RESEARCH adds an Inherited Rights Filter with only the Browse right
checked. Now no one can inherit the Create right in RESEARCH, but SALES still
inherits the Browse right.
But, User JOHN, who is under SALES, services one particular server under
RESEARCH, so the administrator of RESEARCH adds JOHN to the Trustee List of
server CentralStation with Supervisor right. Now he can do anything he needs
to on that server. (This explicit trustee assignment to the server object
bypasses the Inherited Rights Filter.)
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 125. Add Assignment button ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Add Assignment Button
Grants a new trustee assignment to an object and adds that object to the
"Assigned Objects" list.
You can add as many trustee assignments as you need. You must have at least
the Write property right to the ACL property of any object that you want to
add to the "Assigned Objects" list.
Define trustee assignments as high as possible in the Directory tree. The
fewer trustee assignments you use, the easier it is to determine where an
object's inherited rights came from.
Example: Users in the SEATTLE Organizational Unit need rights to the printer.
Rather than make each user a trustee of the printer, make SEATTLE a trustee of
the printer. Each user will have the same rights as SEATTLE. (If a user needs
more rights to manage the printer, that user can be listed as a separate
trustee of the printer.)
To grant a set of rights to a group of users who don't share a common
container, use a Group object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 126. Delete Assignment button ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Delete Assignment Button
Deletes an object from the "Assigned Objects" list.You must have at least the
Write property right to the ACL property of any object that you want to remove
from the "Assigned Objects" list.
If this object is the only trustee of the assigned object with the Supervisor
object right and the Inherited Rights Filter of the assigned object blocks the
Supervisor object right, the trustee cannot be deleted. This prevents cutting
off Supervisor-level access to part of the Directory tree.
This object can still have rights to an object that does not appear in the
"Assigned Object" list, by
- Inheriting them from objects higher in the Directory tree,
- Security equivalence (for user objects only), or
- Membership in a Group object that is a trustee of this object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 127. List of Object Rights to an Object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Object rights determine what a trustee can do to an object. They do not grant
any rights to see or change the properties of the object.
When you select an object in the "Assigned Objects" list, this object's rights
to the object that you selected are shown as checked in the list of object
rights.
Example: With the Delete object right, a user can remove an object from the
Directory tree so that it no longer exists.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 128. List of Assigned Property Rights ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Property Rights to an Object
Property rights determine what a trustee can do with the properties of an
object.
When you select an object in the "Assigned Objects" list, this object's
property rights are shown as checked in the list of property rights.
Example: With the Write right for All Properties, a user can add or change the
values of any property.
There are two ways to assign property rights
All Property rights define this object's rights to the assigned object that
are the same for every property of the object. These rights control all
properties unless rights are granted for a specific property as well.
Selected Property rights define this object's rights to the assigned object
for one property of the object. These rights, if assigned, override the All
Property rights to the object for only that specific property.
Example: A User has Read rights to all properties of a Directory Map object
that points to an application. The User needs to change the location of the
application in the Directory Map, and is granted the Supervisor property right
to the Path property of the Directory Map.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 192. Directory Map Example of MAP Command ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
How to Use a Directory Map with the MAP Command
A Directory Map object can be used with the MAP command in
- Container login scripts
- Profile login scripts
- User login scripts
Instead of mapping to a specific volume and path on the network where an
application is located, you can map to a Directory Map. The Directory Map
contains the specific volume and path to the application.
When the application is moved to a new location on the network, the network
supervisor only has to change the volume and path in the Directory Map object.
Every user will still reference the Directory Map and find the application. No
login scripts need to be changed.
If the user is not in the same context as the Directory Map, use the complete
name of the Directory Map in the MAP command.
Example: To reference a Directory Map for a word processing application in the
login script, type the following command: MAP R:=WordPerfMap.Accounting.Novell

Example: To set a charge rate for work hours, select all cells from Monday at
8 a.m. to Friday at 5 p.m. and fill it with one charge rate (shown by that
charge rate's color).
You can have up to 20 different charge rates among all five accounting
categories.

Time and Charge Rate Fields
Two fields are under the Day and Time grid to help you assign charge rates:
"Time" shows the cell you are pointing at, indicated by the day of week and
time
"Charge rate" shows the charge rate in effect for that day and time. This
refers to the line in the list of charge rates, not the amount charged.
Watch these fields when you work in the grid to make sure you are assigning
charge rates for the correct days and hours.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 229. Charge rates list box for server resources ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Charge rates list box
This box lists all charge rates that can be assigned to this resource on this
server. Each charge rate is made up of a multiplier and a divisor.
You can have a total of 20 charge rates for all five accounting categories.
A color is assigned to each charge rate and is used to display squares in the
day and time grid for which that charge rate is assigned.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 230. Add charge rate button to account for server resources ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Add Charge Rate Button
When you choose "Add Charge Rate" you see a dialog where you enter a
multiplier and a divisor as a new charge rate. The new charge rate is added
to the list of charge rates that can be assigned to any square of the day and
time grid.
You should use no more than four or five charge rates for each accounting
category. (The total number of charge rates for all five categories together
is 20).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 231. Delete charge rate button ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Delete Charge Rate Button
This button deletes the selected charge rate from the list of charge rates.
You can delete only charge rates that are not used in the Day and Time grid.
To delete a charge rate that is still in use, you must change the charge rate
for those days and times.
This deletion can't be undone. You must re-enter the deleted values with "Add
Charge Rate" and select the days and times again.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 232. Deciding on Charge Rate Multipliers and Divisors ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Determining Charge Rates
Charge rates are not defined with units such as dollars and cents. We
recommend that you use cents or an equivalent value.
There are two ways to determine charge rates.
If you know how much to charge per resource unit
If you know how much you want to charge for the entire resource
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> No Title for this topic ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Determining a Charge Rate
You can set a charge rate for the amount you want. For example, you know that
you want to charge 1 cent for each block read.
1. Convert the amount you want to charge into a fraction.
If the amount is a whole cent amount, like 2 or 3 cents, then the fraction
is that number over 1; for example, 2/1.
If the amount is a fraction, like 1.75 cents, then multiply it by 10 enough
times to get rid of the decimal, then put a 10 underneath the fraction for
each time you do that. For example, 1.75 times 10 equals 17.5, with one 10
underneath. So our first fraction is 17.5/10. Since the number is still a
fraction, repeat the process: 17.5 times 10 equals 175. with another 10
underneath.So the new fraction is 175 over 10 times 10, or 175/100.
2. Enter the top number as the multiplier. (175 in our example.)
3. Enter the bottom number as the divisor. (100 in our example.)
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ <hidden> No Title for this topic ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Charging for a Resource
You can charge for an entire resource used. For example, you know that you
want to charge $200 per month for disk storage to cover your costs, and there
are usually 100,000 4 KB used on your 500 MB hard disk.
1. Enter the total amount charged as the multiplier (the top number).
This is 20,000 in our example...$200 in cents.
2. Enter the total amount of the resource used as the divisor (the bottom
number).
This is 100,000 in our example, the total amount of disk space to charge
for.
This fraction comes out to two tenths of one cent per 4 KB disk block used
to store data. So if a user had 1 MB of word processing and spreadsheet
files stored on the hard disk, she would be charged about 51 cents per
month.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 233. Deciding what to charge for when accounting for server resources ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
What to Charge For
As a general rule, charge users for server resources that are scarce or that
you want to limit use of. For example,
- If disk storage space is scarce or you want to encourage users not to keep
old files on the hard disk, charge for disk storage space.
- If network traffic is heavy and you want users to limit their overall use
of the network, charge for service requests.
- If you run out of NetWare connections regularly, charge for connect time so
that users log in only when they really need the network.
You can also charge for more than one resource. If no charge rates are entered
in the Day and Time gid for a resource, then no users are charged for that
resource.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 234. How charge rates affect a user's account balance ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
How Charge Rates Affect a User's Account Balance
Each User can have an account balance that determines the amount of network
resources that the User can use. If you set "No Limit" in the User's Object
dialog "Account Restrictions" page, then accounting and charge rates have no
effect.
If a User does have an account limit and uses a service for which an
accounting charge rate has been specified, the amount of that service is
deducted from the User's account balance. When the User's credit limit is
reached or the account balance is zero, the User can no longer log in to the
network until the account balance is changed.
Example: A User pays $50 to use the network. You charge 2 cents for each block
read and 1 cent for each minute of connect time. Each time the User reads a
block of information from a volume attached to that NetWare Server, the User's
account balance is reduced by 2 cents. Each minute that the User is attached
to that NetWare Server, the User's account balance is reduced by 1 cent.
After several weeks, the User's acccount balance is zero. The User is logged
out and can't log in again until the network supervisor updates the User's
account balance.

List the Files on This Volume
In the NetWare Administrator, you can manage files and directories on a
NetWare volume. Files and directories are displayed below the volume object
as a continuation of the Directory structure, even though they are actually a
part of a file system and not the Directory Services database.
You can select and expand a volume object just as you do a container object in
the Browser, provided that you have these rights:
Browse object right to the Volume object
Read property right to the Host Server and Physical Volume Name properties
of the Volume object
File Scan directory right to the root directory of the volume
Remember that you must have rights to the ACL property to change object or
property rights, and you must have the Access Control directory right to
change rights to the root directory.
Also, remember that Supervisor rights to the file system on the volume are
granted through the NetWare Server object on which this volume is installed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 237. See the Physical Volume Name for this Volume ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
See the Physical Name of this Volume
The physical volume name of the volume that this Volume object refers to is
shown in the "Physical Volume Name" field on the Identification page of the
Volume object dialog. The physical volume name may also be called the Host
resource name.
The physical volume name is assigned when a volume is installed. A volume
named SYS must exist for every NetWare server, but other volumes on the
server can have any name. The physical volume name cannot be changed by
Directory Services. You can use the NetWare Console to change the physical
volume name, but you must then delete the old volume object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 238. See Which Server this Volume is Attached To ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

The physical NetWare Server that this volume is attached to is shown in the
"Host Server" field of the Identification page of the object dialog for this
volume. The Host Server was specified when the volume object was created and
cannot be changed. The Host Server provides Directory Services an address to
find the volume on the network. You can view the object dialog for the Host

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 241. Volume Statistics - Block size ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Block Size
This field indicates the block size used by this volume. The block size was
determined when the volume was installed. Block size can't be changed without
deleting and re-creating the volume.
Space on a volume is allocated to files in blocks. The minimum amount of disk
space that a file can use is one disk block, and subsequent space allocations
are also a multiple of the block size.
Example: If the block size in 4 KB, a file with only one line of text will
still use 4 KB of disk space because that is the smallest amount of disk space
that can be allocated to any file.
A smaller block size will save disk space for smaller files, but make access
to larger files less efficient. A larger block size will make access to very
large files much quicker, but will waste disk space for each small file.
Block suballocation allows several files to share one disk block. This
eliminates most of the wasted space caused by large block sizes. It is
generally best to allow NetWare to choose the combination of block size and
block suballocation.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 242. Volume Statistics - Removeable volume flag ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
[Non-]Removeable Volume Flag
This flag is set automatically. When a volume is installed, NetWare determines
the type of storage device it is and sets this flag.
Non-removeable volumes include hard drives.
Removeable volumes contain cartridges or optical disks that can be taken out
of the drive.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 243. Volume statistics - Space chart ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Space Chart
This chart shows how much of this volume is in use. The total size of the
volume and the remaining free space are shown numerically below the graphic
representation.
You can't change this information here. To change the amount of space used,
you must create or delete files, add or remove name spaces, or perform
similar actions.
Colored areas indicate the space that is used. This is also shown by the
percentage at the right of the chart.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 244. Volume Statistics - Directory entries chart ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Directory Entries Chart
This chart shows the percentage of directory entries used on this volume. The
total number of available directory entries and the entries that are still
unused are shown numerically below the graphic.
Note: You can't change this information. The number of directory entries
available on each volume is determined by the block size used on the volume,
which must be set when the volume is installed. Each directory entry used 128
bytes, and a maximum of 65,536 disk blocks can be used for directory entries.
So the maximum number of directory entries on a volume is the block size (in
KB) times 524,288.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 245. Volume Statistics - Migrated files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Migrated Files
This box shows how many files on this volume have been migrated to a secondary
storage device, and how much disk space was saved by migrating them.
Screen regions and buttons
"Count" shows the number of files on this volume that are currently
migrated to a secondary storage device.
"Actual size" shows the total size of all files that have been migrated to
a secondary storage device. To bring all migrated files back to the
volume, you would need this much disk space. This number can be larger
than your entire volume since the secondary storage device can be
larger than the volume from which files are migrated.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 246. Volume statistics - Compressed files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Compressed Files
This box shows how many of the files on this volume have been compressed by
NetWare, and how much disk space was saved by compressing them.
Screen regions and buttons
"Count" shows the number of files on this volume that have been compressed.
"Uncompressed size" shows the space that all of the files in the "Count"
field would use on the volume if they were not compressed.
"Compressed size" shows the space that all of the files in the "Count"
field are actually using while they are compressed.
"Average compression" shows the average amount of space saved by
compressing a file, as a percentage of it's original size. The formula
used to calculate this is (Uncompressed size minus Compressed size)
divided by Uncompressed size.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 247. Volume statistics - Name Spaces ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Name Spaces Box
This box lists name spaces that are installed on this physical volume.
Name spaces can be added to the volume at any time by the network supervisor
using the LOAD command at the server console prompt. Each name space uses
another directory entry for every file or directory on the volume.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 248. Volume statistics - Installed Features ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Installed Features Box
This lists features that are installed on the volume. A feature must be
installed on a volume for the files on that volume to be able to use it.
Some features can be installed or removed at the NetWare Server console. Other
featuers must be chosen when the volume is installed and can't be changed.
Possible features are:
- Block suballocation: allows disk blocks to be shared by several files to
prevent wasted disk space
- Compression: compresses files that have not been used recently to conserve
disk space
- Data migration: moves files that have not been used recently to a secondary
storage device until they are requested by a User
- Auditing: allows a network auditor to track file and Directory Services
transactions
- Read Only: indicates that this volume is Read Only (can be read but not
written to, such as a CD ROM drive).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 249. Volume Statistics - Deleted files ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Deleted Files
This lists the space used on this volume by files that have been deleted but
are still stored on the volume.
NetWare saves all deleted files for a time in case they need to be salvaged
and reused after they have been deleted.
The NetWare Server console allows you to set the amount of time to wait before
purging deleted files (permanently erasing them), or for purging them
immediately when they are deleted. If a volume is full, the oldest deleted
files are purged first to make space for current files to be stored.
Screen regions and buttons
"Count" shows how many deleted files are stored on this volume. All deleted
files referred to in this number are listed as "unpurgeable" or
"purgeable" in the two fields below.
"Unpurgeable size" indicates the total size of all deleted files that can't
be purged yet. This refers to the "Minimum delay to purge files"
parameter in the NetWare Server console. Files that have been deleted
less than that amount of time can't be purged.
"Purgeable size" indicates the total size of all deleted files that can be
purged. These files have been deleted at least the "Minimum delay to
purge files," but they have not been purged yet.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 284. Search Mode of a File ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Search Mode
A search mode determines how NetWare looks for files that it needs, such as
data files or auxilliary program files. A search mode can be defined for any
file, but only application files (files with an .EXE or .COM extension in DOS)
really use them.
A NET.CFG file can contain a search mode that applies to all files unless a
different search mode is specified for a particular file
When an application requests a file, it can include a path with the filename,
or just the filename. It can also specify that the file is to be read, but not
written to. This is called a Read Only open.
Screen regions and buttons
"Shell default" uses the search mode defined in the user's NET.CFG file.
(Equivalent to value 0 in the text utilities)

default (current) directory, and then in each search drive. (Equivalent
to value 5 in the text utilities)

the filename and in the default (current) directory. Search drives are
not checked. (Equivalent to value 2 in the text utilities.)
"Search on read only with no path" looks for the desired file first in the
default (current) directory, and then, if the file is to be opened for
Read Only, in each search drive. (Equivalent to value 7 in the text

specified with the file, then in the default (current) directory, and
then in each search drive. (Equivalent to value 1 in the text

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 297. Create a User object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a User Object
A User object represents a user on the network. A User object must exist for
every user who will log in to the network.
Users on 4.0 client workstations can be created anywhere in the Directory
tree, though they must know where they are to log in. Users on non-4.0 client
workstations must be located in the same container as the server that runs
bindery emulation for them.
To create a user
1. Type the user's name in "Login name."
This is the name that the user will use to log in to the network (this name
appears in the Directory tree).
You must follow the user naming conventions.
Use Tab or the mouse to move to the next field. Enter will not work.
2. Type the user's surname in "Last name."
3. (Optional) To complete the fields of this new User with the information
entered in the USER_TEMPLATE for this container, select "Use User
Defaults."
If this container does not have a USER_TEMPLATE object, this selection is
grayed.
4. (Optional) To define additional information about this User immediately
after creating it, select "Define Additional Properties."
You cannot select this if you select "Create another User."
5. (Optional) To create another User immediately after this one, select
"Create Another User."
You cannot select this if you select "Define Additional Properties."
6. (Optional) To automatically create a home directory for this User when it
is created, select "Create Home Directory."
If you select this option, you must also define a path and directory name
for the User's home directory.
If you select this option, this User is granted all rights to this
directory.
6a.Choose the Browser icon to the right of the "Path" field to select a
volume (root directory) or other subdirectory that will hold this user's
home directory.
6b.Type a directory name in the "Home Directory" field.
The User's login name is generally used as the directory name.
7. Choose "Create."
If you selected "Define Additional Properties," the User object dialog
appears.
If you selected "Create another Profile," this "Create User Object" dialog
appears again.
If you selected "Create Home Directory," a directory is created on the
selected volume. You see no evidence of this new directory on the screen.
Screen regions and buttons
"Login name" is the name of this User object and the name the user enters
to log in to the network.
"Last name" shows the user's last name, or other identification information
that you have chosen to store in this field.
"Use User Defaults" applies default values to properties for this User.
"Define Additional Properties" lets you define more information about this
User immediately after creating it, such as a password or login script
commands.
"Create another User" repeats this dialog rather than returning to the
Browser.
"Create Home Directory" creates the directory described in "Path" and "Home
Directory" and grants this user a trustee assignment to that directory.
This gives the new user a place to work immediately.
"Path" lets you choose a path on a volume where you want to create the home
directory for this user. A path such as \USERS or \HOME is often used to
hold all users' home directories. This field is only used if "Create
Home Directory" is selected.
"Home Directory" is the name of the directory that is created for this
user, and to which this user is granted rights, if "Create Home
Directory" is selected.
"Create" creates the new User.
"Cancel" returns to the Browser without creating a User.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 298. Use User Defaults when Creating a User Object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use the User Template when Creating a User Object
User defaults are the information contained in the USER_TEMPLATE object. This
object can be created in two ways:
- Select "Define User Defaults." When creating an Organizational Unit object,
select "Define User Defaults."
- Choose "User Defaults" from the "Object" menu after creating an
Organizational Unit object.
You cannot apply user defaults to existing users. If you change the user
defaults, the changes apply only to the Users created after that; they do not
apply to Users that were previously created using user defaults.
You can use defaults to complete general User information, then make changes
to some fields in the User Object dialog. The USER_TEMPLATE object includes
information for the following pages:
Identification
Environment
Login restrictions
Password restrictions
Login Time restrictions
Login script
Network Address
Group Membership
Security Equals
Postal Address
Account Balance

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 300. User - Login Name Field ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Login Name of a User
The login name is the name that the user enters to log in to the network (this
name appears in the Directory tree). Your organization should standardize how
new login names are entered. For example, everyone should use first initial
and last name, or first name (a small organization), or last name, or first
and last name with an underscore.
Other identification information can be stored in the "Last Name" field in the
"Create User" dialog, or in the "Other Names" field. Both of these fields can
contain multiple values and can be edited in the "Identification" page of the
User Object dialog.
Login Name Restrictions
- The login name must be unique in the branch (container) of the Directory
tree where the User is located.
Example: If users Debra Jones and David Jones are in the same
Organizational Unit, only one of them can use the login name "djones."
However, if they are in different containers, they can use the same login
name.
- The login name can be up to 64 characters in length.
- Any special characters can be used, unless this user needs to log in from a
non-NetWare 4.0 client workstation, in which case you should avoid special
characters (see below).
Note: If you have workstations using different languages, you should only use
characters that appear in the code page of all languages. Otherwise, a name
entered when creating an object in England, for example, will contain
unreadable characters when viewed in Japan, because the characters of the name
are not available on the Japan code page. See your DOS or OS/2 manual for more
information about code pages.
- Names are displayed with upper and lower case as they were first entered,
but they are not case sensitive. So DJones and DJONES are considered to be
identical names.
- Spaces and underscores can both be used, and they will be displayed as they
were first entered, but they are considered to be the same. So Dave_Jones
and Dave Jones are the same.
Note: If you use spaces in an object name, you must always enclose the object
name in quotation marks when entering it on the command line or in login
scripts. For this reason, you may want to avoid spaces in object names.
Login Name Restrictions for Bindery Emulation
When creating users who will log in from a non-NetWare v4.0 workstation, the
names of User objects must match bindery naming rules, or the user will not be
able to log in.
- Spaces in object names are replaced by underscores in Bindery Emulation
- Object names longer than 47 characters are cut off after the 47th character
- The following characters cannot be used in an object name that must be
access from a non-NetWare v4.0 workstation:
/ Slash
\ Backslash
: Colon
, Comma
* Asterisk

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 301. User - Last Name Field ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Last Name of a User
You must enter a value in the "Last Name" field. This can be any
identification information that you need.
If you open an object dialog for this User after creating it, you can enter
multiple values in this field. This can be very helpful when searching for
objects with particular values.
Example: David Jones logs in as "djones." To find him when searching for all
users named Jones, you enter "Jones" in the "Last name" field.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 302. Object Naming Conventions ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Object Naming Conventions
Although you can use almost anything for an object name, it will simplify
network management and reduce users' problems if you use simple, relatively
short object names.
The rules below apply to most objects, including Users, Volumes,
Organizations, and Organizational Units. Special rules apply to Country
objects, which can only have a two-character name, and to NetWare Server
objects. More information is also provided elsewhere for User object names
(Login Names).
Object Name Restrictions
- The name must be unique in the branch (container) of the Directory tree
where the object is located.
Example: If users Debra Jones and David Jones are in the same
Organizational Unit, only one of them can use the object name "djones."
However, if they are in different containers, they can use the same object
name.
- The object name can be up to 64 characters in length.
- Any special characters can be used, unless this object needs to be accessed
from a non-NetWare 4.0 client workstation, in which case you should avoid
special characters.
Note: A few special characters like plus (+), equals (=), and period(.) must
be preceded in the object name by a backslash. Avoid these characters if
possible.
Note: If you have workstations using different languages, you should only use
characters that appear in the code page of all languages. Otherwise, a name
entered when creating an object in England, for example, will contain
unreadable characters when viewed in Japan, because the characters of the name
are not available on the Japan code page. See your DOS or OS/2 manual for more
information about code pages.
- Object names are displayed with upper and lower case as they were first
entered, but they are not case sensitive. So ManagerProfile and
MANAGERPROFILE are considered to be identical names.
- Spaces and underscores can both be used, and they will be displayed as they
were first entered, but they are considered to be the same. So
Manager_Profile and Manager Profile are the same..
Note: If you use spaces in an object name, you must always enclose the object
name in quotation marks when entering it on the command line or in login
scripts. For this reason, you may want to avoid spaces in object names.
Object Name Restrictions for Bindery Emulation
When creating objects that will be accessed from a non-NetWare 4.0 client
workstation through bindery emulation, the names of objects must match bindery
naming rules, or the non-4.0 client cannot see them.
- Spaces in object names are replaced by underscores in Bindery Emulation
- Object names longer than 47 characters are cut off after the 47th character
- The following characters cannot be used in an object name that must be
access from a non-NetWare v4.0 workstation:

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 303. NetWare Server Object Naming Conventions ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
NetWare Server Object Naming Conventions
The general object naming rules allow more flexibility than those for naming a
NetWare Server object.
NetWare Server Name Restrictions
- Every object name must be unique within its container. There cannot be two
objects named TEST in the same container.
- The first NetWare Server object for a NetWare 4.0 server must be created
with the INSTALL.NLM. The object will be given the same name as the
physical server. Rules for naming physical servers are in the <F1> help
system of INSTALL.NLM.
- If you create another NetWare Server object that points to the same NetWare
4.0 server, it must have the same name as the original NetWare Server
object, which was the physical server name. Because the objects have the
same name, they must be in different containers.
- If you create a NetWare Server for a non-NetWare 4.0 server, you must use
the physical server name as well, because Directory Services must search
for the server on the network to verify its existence.
- Because of these restrictions, you can never rename a NetWare Server
object, even if you have the Supervisor object right to it.
- Naming rules for physical servers
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 304. Naming Rules for Physical Servers ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Physical Server Naming Rules
These rules are provided as information only. Every NetWare Server object must
be named by an existing physical server that was created with INSTALL.NLM at
the server console. You also cannot rename a NetWare Server object.
The physical name of a NetWare server:
must be 2 to 47 characters long
can contain letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, hyphens, periods, and underscores
cannot have a period as the first character
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 305. Naming Rules for Physical Volumes ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Physical Volume Naming Rules
These rules are provided as information only. Every NetWare volume must be
installed at the server console and given a physical volume name at that time.
A Volume object that points to this physical volume contains the physical
volume name as a property, though the Volume object can be named anything that
follows the object naming conventions.
The physical name of a NetWare volume:
must be 2 to 15 characters long
can contain letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, hyphens, periods, and underscores
cannot have a period as the first character
cannot contain spaces, colons, asterisks, question marks, or backslashes
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 306. Create a Volume Object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a Volume Object
A Volume object provides a place in the Directory database to record and view
information about a physical volume that was installed on a NetWare Server.
By creating a Volume object and "pointing it" to a physical volume, you can
see the directories and files on the volume from within the NetWare
Administrator and other utilities.
Volume is a leaf object. Directories and files on the physical volume are
shown under it, however.
To create a new Volume object
1. Type a name for this Volume object in the "Volume name" text box.
We recommend that you use the Server_PhysicalVolumeName for Volume names.
The only requirement, however, is that you follow the object naming
conventions.
2. Select the "Host server" text box.
3. Choose the "Browser" icon .
4. Select the NetWare Server on which you want to create this Volume object.
The server must already exist.
5. Enter the volume's physical name in the "Physical volume name" text box.
You can type the name or choose one from the drop box. The drop box lists
the physical volumes that have been installed on the NetWare server
selected in step 4.
6. (Optional) To define additional information about this Volume right now,
select "Define Additional Properties."
You cannot select this if you select "Create another volume."
7. (Optional) To create another Volume immediately after this one, select
"Create Another Volume."
You cannot select this if you select "Define Additional Properties."
8. Choose "Create."
If you selected "Define Additional Properties," the Volume object dialog
appears.
If you selected "Create another volume," this dialog appears again.
Screen regions and buttons
"Volume Name" is the name of the Volume as it will appear in the Browser.
"Host Server" is the name of the NetWare Server to which the physical
volume is attached. The NetWare Server must already exist.
"Physical Volume Name" is the name of the volume that was recorded when the
volume was first initialized at the server (for example, SYS:).
"Define Additional Properties" allows you to define more information about
this volume immediately after creating it.
"Create another Volume" repeats this dialog box rather than returning to
the Browser.
"Create" creates the new Volume.
"Cancel" returns to the Browser without creating a Volume.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 307. Create a Volume object, name field ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a Volume Object - Naming a Volume Object
This is the name of the Volume object for Directory Services. It can be any
valid object name.
This name can include
- The name of the area where this volume is used
- The server it resides in
- Its physical name
The Volume object name is not the same thing as the physical volume name,
although you can use the same name for both.
Example: The name of the physical volume is SYS:. You create the new Volume
object under the MARKETING Organizational Unit. To describe its location, you
name the Volume object MARKETING_SYS.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 308. Create a NetWare server object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a NetWare Server Object
A NetWare Server object provides Directory Services with a way to refer to a
physical server. Information is stored in the NetWare Server object's
properties about the physical location of the server, what services it
provides, and how those resources are used and accounted for.
You must use INSTALL.NLM on each NetWare 4.0 Server to create the first
NetWare Server object for each physical server. After that, you can create
other NetWare Server objects that point to the same physical server as the
NetWare Server object that was created with INSTALL.NLM. Multiple NetWare
Server objects pointing to the same physical server cannot be in the same
container, however.
You can create a NetWare Server object that points to a NetWare 3.x or NetWare
2.x server at any time. NetWare Server is a leaf object.
To create a new NetWare Server object under the selected container
1. Type a name for this NetWare Server in the "Server name" text box.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 318. Create an Alias object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create an Alias Object
An Alias object refers to another object in the Directory tree and makes it
appear as if the object that it names actually exists in the Directory tree
where the Alias is created.
Although an object appears both where it was first created and where an Alias
was created referring to it, only one copy of the object really exists, and
changes made to either object affect what appears in both locations.
Alias is a leaf object. The object that the Alias refers to, however, can be a
container, so an Alias can appear to have objects beneath it.
To create a new Alias object
1. Type a name for this Alias in the "Alias Name" text box.
If you are creating an alias that refers to Accounts, you might name it
"Alias of Accounts."
You must follow the object naming conventions.
2. Select the "Aliased object" text box.
3. Choose the "Browser" icon.
4. Select an object.
5. (Optional) To create another Alias immediately after this one, select

"Create" creates the new Alias.
"Cancel" returns to the Browser without creating an Alias.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 319. Create an Alias object, Alias name ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create Alias Object - Naming an Alias
This is the name of the Alias.
An Alias shows another object (named in the "Aliased Object" field) from a
different location; it does not create a copy of the object.
Rights to the Aliased object will always be inherited from an object's true
parent container, and not from the parent container of an Alias that points to
it.
Example: The CENTRAL Organizational Unit wants access to a Volume object
contained by the SEATTLE Organizational Unit without changing their context to
SEATTLE's part of the Directory tree. CENTRAL creates an Alias that refers to
the Volume under SEATTLE. (The Volume is the Aliased object.)
Now CENTRAL can see and use the volume in SEATTLE without changing their
current context. Any changes made by CENTRAL still occur on the Volume object
in SEATTLE's area of the Directory tree.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 320. Create an Alias object, aliased object name ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create Alias Object - Setting an Aliased Object Name
This is the name of the object that the Alias object refers to. It can be a
container or a leaf object, depending on whether you want to see an entire
branch of the Directory tree at this location, or just one object.
An Alias looks at the original object from a different location; it does not
create a copy of the object. Rights to the aliased object will always be
inherited from an object's true parent container, and not from the parent
container of an Alias that points to it.
Example: CENTRAL Organizational Unit wants to see information in the ITALY
Organizational Unit without changing their context. Central office creates an
Alias under the Central organizational unit that refers to the Milan Sales
organizational unit object under Italy.
Now Central can see everything under Milan Sales without changing their
current context. Any changes made by Central office still occur on the "real"
objects under ITALY in the Directory tree.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 321. Create a Profile object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a Profile Object
A Profile object stores a login script that is used by a group of users that
need to share common login script commands, but who are not necessarily
located under the same container in the Directory tree.
If a Profile is listed in the Login Script page of a User object, it is
executed after the login script of the User's container object, but before the
User's individual login script.
Profile is a leaf object.
To create a new Profile object

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 322. Create a Directory ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a Directory
Directories are not Directory Services objects. They are part of the file
system, which is integrated with Directory Services in the NetWare
Administrator utility. You can create a directory when you select a Volume or
another directory.
You can only create directories on a network volume, not on your local hard
drive.
To create a new directory
1. Type a name for the directory in the "Name" text box.
The name must follow the rules of the name space that you are using. If you
are using DOS, for example, the name must be eight characters or fewer,
with a three character extension (for example, TESTNAME.TXT).
2. (Optional) To define additional information about this directory right now,
select "Define Additional Properties."
You cannot select this if you select "Create another Directory."
3. (Optional) To create another directory immediately after this one, select
"Create Another Directory."
You cannot select this if you select "Define Additional Properties."
4. Choose "Create."
If you selected "Define Additional Properties," the Directory dialog
appears.
If you selected "Create another Directory," this dialog appears again.
Screen regions and buttons
"Directory Name" is the name of the directory.
"Define Additional Properties" lets you define more information about this
directory immediately after creating it.
"Create another Directory" repeats this dialog rather than returning to the
Browser.
"Create" creates the new directory.
"Cancel" returns to the Browser without creating a directory.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 323. Create a File ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a File
Use the NetWare Administrator to see information about files that already
exist. You must use another application, such as a word processor, to create
new files.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 324. Using the NetWare Administrator ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Using the NetWare Administrator
The NetWare Administrator is similar to a file manager, except that you also
manage objects in the Directory database instead of only files.
The Browser is the main work area in the NetWare Administrator. It displays
the name of each object and its corresponding icon.
To work with an object, select it; then choose the task you want. There are
several ways to complete tasks:
Use Menu Options
Double-Click on an Object
Click the Right Mouse Button
Drag and Drop Objects
Procedures
Change the Directory Context
Create a New Object
Move Objects
Move or Copy Files
Include Certain Object Classes in the Browser
Open Multiple Browser Windows
Set Browser Defaults
Use Menu Options
Set the Preferred Name Space for Files and Directories
View the Current Directory Context
Screen regions and buttons
Menu options let you choose tasks from pull-down menus.
The Browser window displays objects in the Directory database in a tree
structure that allows you to see their relationships to each other.
The Hint Bar explains menu options as you select them.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 326. Double-click on an Object ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Double-Click on an Object
When you double-click on an object (or press Enter after an object is
selected), the NetWare Administrator performs the most logical action for that
object at that place. The action depends on the object you choose.
When you double-click on a container object, the Browser lists the objects
contained in that object.
When you double-click on a leaf object, the Browser opens an object dialog,
unless the leaf object is a volume.
When you double-click on a Volume object, the Browser lists directories and
files in the root directory of that volume.
Example: If you double-click on Organizational Unit SALES, SALES opens and
shows the objects it contains. If you double-click on User object JORDAN, you
see the object dialog for JORDAN. If you double-click on Volume MARKETING, you
see the root directory of that volume.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 327. Use Menu Options ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Menu Options
Menus list all tasks that you can perform. To use most menu options, select
the object you want to work with, then choose the task from a pull-down menu.
The Hint Bar at the top of the screen explains each menu option when you
select it.
Example: To create Server SERVER1 under Organizational Unit SALES, select
SALES; then choose "Create" from the "Object" menu.
If a menu option is grayed, that option is not available (either because you
do not have rights to perform the action, or the object you selected doesn't
allow that option).
Some menu options have ellipses, indicating that a dialog appears when that
option is chosen.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 335. Drag and Drop Objects, Files, or Directories ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Drag and Drop Operations
Drag and Drop Objects
If you drag one object onto another object, the NetWare Administrator makes
the object that you dragged a trustee of the object that you dropped on.
If you have rights to add trustees to the object you landed on, the "Trustees
of this Object" dialog for the object you landed on opens and the object that
you dragged is added as a trustee.
Shift-Drag and Drop Objects
If you hold down the "Shift" key while you drag one object onto another
object, the NetWare Administrator makes the object that you landed on a
trustee of the object that you dragged.
If you have rights to add trustees to the object that you dragged, the "Rights
to Other Objects" dialog opens for the object you dragged, and the object that
you landed on is added as a trustee.
Moving Objects
Leaf objects can be moved to a new location in the Directory tree by dragging
and dropping the object while holding the <Ctrl> key. (You can also select the
object and choosing "Move" in the "Object" menu.)
Drag and Drop Files and Directories
If you drag one file or directory onto another directory or volume, the
NetWare Administrator will move or copy that file or directory to the place
where you dropped it.
You must have rights to create a file or directory where you land.
You can drag and drop files or directories to other directories on the same
volume, or to directories in other volumes in the Directory tree. You can land
on the volume object to copy or move something to the root directory of that
volume, even if the volume object is not "open" to display directories.

5. (optional) Select how you want to compare a value to the selected property.
You can select "Equal to," "Greater than," "Less than," or other choices.
If you select "Exists," then objects will be included if they have some
value in the selected property.
6. (optional) Enter a value in the field to the right of the comparison method
that you entered in step 5.
If you selected "Exists" in step 5, you can leave this field blank.
For example, searching for a certain Profile object, you might select Other
Names property, Equal To, and Manger's Profile. Or if searching for certain
User's, you might select Department property, Equal To, and Development.
7. Choose "OK."
Objects that match your selections are displayed in a new Browser window.
You can now work with these objects.

"Directory Services Object Name" field.
Example: To see only users in the active Browser window, select Users in the
"Object Types" list.
Use the "Include" dialog also to define by name which directories and files
you want displayed. If you select Volume objects to be displayed, you will see
the directories and files on those volumes that match the pattern.
Example: To see volumes with files that have .EXE extensions in the active
Browser window, select Volumes in the "Object Types" list and type "*.exe" in
the "DOS File Name" field.
Example: To see volumes with directories and files that have "P" and "R" in

Setting Up NetWare Print Services
NetWare print services requires you to create three printing objects--a Print
Server, Printer, and Print Queue--in order for network users to share
printers. Use the following steps to create a printing environment with one
object of each type and make the necessary assignments for Print Servers and
Printers and Printers and Print Queues.
After you create the printing objects, Print Servers must be assigned to
Printers, and Printers must be assigned to Print Queues. This procedure tells
you how to create and assign the objects in the simplest order.
To create basic NetWare print services
1. Select the context or organizational unit where you want to create printing
objects. For example, "Sales."
2. Create a Print Queue by choosing "Create" from the Object menu. Type the
name in "Print Queue Name." For example, "Q1." Choose the Browser button
next to the "Print Queue Volume" field.
The Select Object dialog appears. Only volumes will appear in the list of
objects.
3. Choose the volume that will store the print queue directory (print jobs).
We recommend that you choose the volume that will usually have the most
free disk space.
4. Choose the Create button without marking the available option boxes.
5. Create a Printer by choosing "Create" from the Object menu. Type the name
in "Printer Name." For example, "P1." Mark the "Define Additional
Properties" box and choose the Create button.
The details dialog for Printer P1 appears.
6. Select the Assignments page and choose the "Add" button.
The Select Object dialog appears. Only Print Queue objects will appear in
the list of objects.
7. Select the same context used in Step 1 and choose the Print Queue object
Q1.
This assigns the Printer to the Print Queue.
8. Select the Configuration page and make any necessary changes. Choose the OK
button.
The default Printer configuration is a parallel printer cabled to a NetWare
server's LPT1 port using a polled interrupt.
9. Create a Print Server by choosing "Create" from the Object menu. Type the
name in "Print Server Name." For example, "PS-Sales." Mark the "Define
Additional Properties" box and choose the Create button.
The details dialog for Print Server PS-Sales appears.
10.Select the Assignments page and choose the "Add" button.
The Select Object dialog appears. Only Printer objects will appear in the
list of objects.
11.Select the same context used in Step 1 and choose the Printer object P1.
This assigns the Print Server to the Printer.
12.Choose the OK button.
The three necessary printing objects are now created and properly assigned.
Network workstations can print after you load the print server (PSERVER.NLM)
and network printer driver (NPRINTER.EXE/NLM). If the printer is cabled to the
the NetWare server that loads PSERVER.NLM, you can have NPRINTER.NLM loaded
automatically. For all manual load printers, you must load NPRINTER.EXE or
NLM. See Load Print Server Software and Load Network Printer Software.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 367. Load Print Server Software ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Load Print Server Software
NetWare print services requires a print server (PSERVER.NLM) to be loaded on a

printservername.context at the NetWare server console.
For example, type LOAD PSERVER PS-SALES.SALES at the NetWare server
console.
If the printer is not cabled to the NetWare server with the network printer
driver loading automatically, you must load NPRINTER.EXE or NLM. See Load
Network Printer Software.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 368. Load Network Printer Software ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Load Network Printer Software
NetWare print services requires a network printer driver for each network
printer. Network printers include printers that are attached:
Directly to the network cabling (printer contains NPRINTER software)
To a DOS workstation (NPRINTER.EXE)
To an OS/2 workstation (NPRINTER.EXE)
To a NetWare server not running PSERVER.NLM (NPRINTER.NLM)
To a NetWare server running PSERVER.NLM (may load NPRINTER.NLM
automatically)
To load NPRINTER.NLM
1. At the NetWare server console, type "LOAD NPRINTER."
The browser appears.
2. Select the context or organizational unit where the Printer is defined and
choose the Printer.
For example, "P1" in the "Sales" context.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 421. Create a Function dialog for a Printer Device ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Create a Function for a Printer Device
This dialog allows you to enter a name and the necessary control sequences to
define a printer device function. The necessary control sequences (also called
control codes, or escape codes) are described in the operator's manual of your
printer device.
A function is an action that the printer device can perform, such as bold
text, or proportional spacing. You cause the printer device to perform the
function by sending control codes to the printer device.
To create a new function definition
1. Enter a function name in the "Function" field.
You can use any name that you want to, but you should choose names that
represent the printer's actions.
You can use up to 8 characters for the name. It must begin with a letter.
2. Enter a control sequence in the "Control Sequence" field by typing the
characters that the printer uses to set that function.
See the operator's manual for your printer device to find the correct
control sequences for printer device functions.
You can type in characters with values from 32 to 126. This includes all
numbers and letters. If you need to enter a value below 32 or above 126,
you must enter the value of the character as three digits between angle
brackets. For example, to enter the escape character, which has a value of
27, followed by a capital N, you would enter the following in the "Control
Sequence" field.
<027>N
Note: Each function can have a control sequence of up to 255 bytes. One byte
is used by each letter or number that you enter in the "Control Sequence"
field. One byte is also used by each control character value, such as escape:
<027>, that you enter. So entering <027>N uses two bytes. Entering
<027>UB<004><246> uses 5 bytes.
3. Choose "OK."
The name of the function definition that you entered is added to the
"Functions" list. The function can now be used by the printer device or by
any mode you define for this printer device.

Use the following list to determine which scripts will be executed when a user
logs in to Directory Services.
Login scripts execute in this order:
1. Is there a login script entered in the container immediately above the
User's object?
If so, it is executed first.
2. Is there a Profile object listed for the User. (see the Login Script page
of the User's object dialog).
If so, the script in the Profile object is executed next.
3. Is there a login script entered for the User?
If so, it is executed third.
4. If none of these scripts exists, a default login script is used to map a
drive to the \PUBLIC directory so that this user can use NetWare utilities.

Effective Rights to an Object
Effective rights are the rights that an object can use to access information
about another object.
In this diagram, if User ESMITH wants to access Profile MANAGERS, User
ESMITH's effective rights to do so can come from several places:
- Trustee assignments on Profile MANAGERS that list User ESMITH (explicit
rights are granted)
- Trustee assignments on Profile MANAGERS that list Organizational Unit SALES
PV (inherited from trustee's container)
Trustee assignments on Org. Unit SALES LA that list User ESMITH; rights
must pass through Profile MANAGERS's Inherited Rights Filter before
becoming effective. (inherited from object's container.)
- Trustee assignments on Org. Unit SALES LA that list Org. Unit SALES
PV;rights must pass through Profile MANAGERS's Inherited Rights Filter
before becoming effective. (inherited from object's container and
trustee's container.)
- Trustee assignments to any object listed in the Security equivalences list
of User ESMITH, such as a Group object (only valid when the object
requesting rights is a User object).
Note: Every object is security equivalent to all of the objects in its
complete name, that is, all of the objects directly above it to the root of
the Directory tree. This security equivalence cannot be changed, but none of
those objects are listed in the Security Equivalences list.
If User ESMITH has a trustee assignment to Org. Unit SALES LA and to Profile
MANAGERS, the Trustee assignment on Profile MANAGERS overrides the trustee
assignment on Org. Unit SALES LA. Trustee assignments to Group, however, are
added to previous trustee assignment for user objects.
You cannot change effective rights directly. You must locate the trustee
assignments where the rights were granted and change it, or add an Inherited
Rights Filter to block rights.
If you selected one trustee before choosing the Effective Rights button, the
effective rights of that trustee will be displayed. Otherwise, you can use the
Browser button to the right of the name field to choose whose effective
rights you want to view.
You must have the Write or Supervisor property right to an object's ACL
property to view other object's effective rights to the object.
Note: If you have made changes anywhere in the Trustees dialog, those changes
will not be reflected in the "Effective Rights" dialog until you exit the
"Trustees" dialog with "OK." When you return to the "Trustees" dialog, any
previous changes are reflected in the effective rights of an object.

from several places:
- Trustee assignments on Profile MANAGERS that list User ESMITH (explicit

Note: If you have made changes anywhere in the "Trustees" dialog, those
changes will not be reflected in the "Effective Rights" dialog until you exit
the "Trustees" dialog with "OK." When you return to the "Trustees" dialog,
any previous changes are reflected in the effective rights of an object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 466. Inherited Rights Filter - objects ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Inherited Rights Filter
An Inherited Rights Filter blocks rights that would otherwise be inherited by
objects who had rights granted by a trustee assignment higher in the Directory
tree.
Note: The Inherited Rights Filter cannot give rights to anyone, it can only
take rights away from a user or group that has more rights than you want it to
have.
If User ESMITH has a trustee assignment to Org. Unit SALES LA, User ESMITH
also inherits rights to Profile MANAGERS. Those rights can be blocked by an
Inherited Rights Filter on Profile MANAGERS.
If User ESMITH also has a trustee assignment to Profile MANAGERS, then that
trustee assignment grants User ESMITH certain rights which are not affected by
Profile MANAGERS's Inherited Rights Filter.
If a check box in the Inherited Rights Filter dialog for Profile MANAGERS is
selected, User ESMITH can inherit that right. If a check box is not selected,
User ESMITH or Organizational Unit SALES PV must have a trustee assignment to
Profile MANAGERS.
An Inherited Rights Filter can block any of the trustee assignment rights,
including rights for specific properties.
Object rights and Property rights are inherited separately. An Inherited
Rights Filter can block certain property rights without affecting any object
rights.
Note: For objects in Directory Services, the Supervisor right can be blocked
by the Inherited Rights Filter. For directories and files, the Supervisor
right cannot be blocked by the Inherited Rights Filter.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 467. Effective Rights to a directory or file ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Effective Rights in Files and Directories
An object's effective rights to a directory or file are the rights that they
can actually use on the directory or file.
Effective rights are determined each time someone tries to access a directory
or file. They are determined by:
- Trustee assignments to the directory or file
- Inherited rights from trustee assignments to a parent directory
- Trustee assignments to objects listed in a User's security equivalences
list, such as Group objects.
Any rights granted by a trustee assignment to a directory above this directory
or file must pass through the Inherited Rights Filter before becoming part of
the effective rights.
INote: If a user has a trustee assignment to a directory that is higher in the
directory structure as well as an assignment to this directory or file, the
current trustee assignment overrides the previous one. Group trustee
assignments, however, can be added to a previous user trustee assignment.
You cannot change effective rights directly. You must locate the trustee
assignments where the rights were granted and change it, or add an Inherited
Rights Filter to block some rights.
If you select one trustee before choosing "Effective Rights", the effective
rights of that trustee will be displayed. Otherwise, you can use the Browser
button to the right of the "Name" field to choose which user's effective
rights to this directory or file you want to view.
You must have the Access Control right to a directory or file to view other
user's effective rights to it. However, If the directory or file is not on a
v4.0 NetWare volume, you can only see your own effective rights.
Note: If you have made changes anywhere in the "Trustees" dialog, those
changes will not be reflected in the "Effective Rights" dialog until you exit
the "Trustees" dialog with "OK." When you return to the "Trustees" dialog,
any previous changes are reflected in the effective rights of a user or
group.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 468. Inherited Rights Filter-files and directories ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Inherited Rights Filter for Files and Directories
An Inherited Rights Filter blocks rights that would otherwise be inherited by
users who had rights granted by a trustee assignment higher in the directory
structure.
If a User or Group has a trustee assignment to a directory or file, that
assignment will override the Inherited Rights Filter on the same directory or
file. But if a User or Group only has rights to a directory or file by
inheriting rights from a directory higher in the directory structure, those
rights can be blocked by the Inherited Rights Filter.
An Inherited Rights Filter can block any of the rights that can be specified
in a trustee assignment.
The Inherited Rights Filter cannot give rights to anyone, it can only take
rights away from a user or group that has more rights than you want it to
have.
If a check box in the Inherited Rights Filter dialog is selected, users can
inherit that right for this directory or file. If the check box is not
selected, only users and groups with a trustee assignment on this directory or
file are allowed to have that right.
Note: For directories and files, the Supervisor right cannot be blocked by the
Inherited Rights Filter. For other objects, the Supervisor right can be
blocked by the Inherited Rights Filter.
Example: Users in Group SALES have Create and Erase rights for your PROJECTS
directory; however, you don't want anyone to have rights to the JANUARY
subdirectory under PROJECTS. Create an Inherited Rights Filter for JANUARY
doesn't have any check boxes selected. Rights given for PROJECTS cannot be
inherited by JANUARY (except the Supervisor right). The Inherited Rights
Filter blocks all rights that are not given to trustees of JANUARY itself.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 469. Trustees and Trustee Paths ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Trustees of this Object and Rights to Other Objects
You can view both Directory Services objects and file system files and
directories. This means that you sometimes view object and property rights,
and other times view file/directory rights, and the attributes of files or
directories.
You can use several access control and security features:
- Select an object and choose "Trustees of this Object" from the "Object"
menu. You can see trustees of the object you selected, its object and
property rights, and view and change its Inherited Rights Filter.
- Select an object and choose "Rights to Other Objects" from the "Object"
menu. You see where the object you selected has a trustee assignment. You
see object and property rights that this object has to other objects. You
can't change the Inherited Rights Filter here.
- Select a User object and choose "Details" from the "Object" menu. You see
which files and directories the User has rights to (by a trustee
assignment). You see file and directory rights.
- Select a file or directory in a volume and choose "Trustees of this Object"
from the "Object" menu.The Users and Groups that have rights granted to the
file or directory through a trustee assignment are listed. You see file and
directory rights. You can also view and change the file or directory's
Inherited Rights Filter.
- Select a file or directory in a volume and choose "Details" from the
"Object" menu. Choose the "Trustees" page. The "File or Directory" trustees
dialog appears.
- Volume is a Directory Services object that allows you to work with the file
system. If you select a Volume and choose "Trustees of this Object" from
the "Object" menu, you see a "Trustees" dialog showing who has rights to
see or change the Volume object. Object and Property rights are used. If
you select a volume and choose "Details" from the "Object" menu and then
the "Trustees of the Root Directory" page, you see the file and directory
rights that apply to the first level of directories on that volume. File
and directory rights are used.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 470. Trustees of the Root Object in the Directory Tree ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Trustees of the Root Object
Certain rules control trustees of the root object in the Directory tree (the
object above the highest Country or Organization object).
- When the Directory tree is created, User ADMIN is given the Supervisor
object right to the root object. You can change the name of User ADMIN, and
User ADMIN can grant other objects the Supervisor object right to the root
object.
- At least one user must be a trustee of the root object with the Supervisor
object right. If only one trustee of the root object has the Supervisor
object right, you cannot delete that trustee from the "Trustees" list, and
you cannot remove the Supervisor object right for that trustee.
Because the Supervisor object right can be blocked by the Inherited Rights
Filter on objects below the root object, if you could remove the Supervisor
object right from the last trustee, you would cut yourself off from part of
the Directory tree.
The NetWare Administrator prevent you from deleting the last trustee with
Supervisor object right or changing the Inherited Rights Filter when there
is no Supervisor. But you could still delete the User that is listed as a
trustee with Supervisor object right. Then no one would have the
Supervisor object right to part of the Directory tree.
Keep track of the users that have supervisor object right at the root of
the Directory tree or at container objects in the tree so that you do not
cut yourself off from any valuable information.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 471. The Root Object in the Directory Tree ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Root Object in the Directory Tree
The root object of the Directory tree contains no information. Its purpose is
to
- Provide the highest point to access different Country and Organization
objects
- Allow trustee assignments granting rights to the entire Directory tree
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 472. The User Object ADMIN ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The User Object ADMIN
The User ADMIN is created when you create the Directory tree. ADMIN is granted
a trustee assignment to the root object of the Directory tree with the
Supervisor object right. This allows a network administrator to log in to the
network as ADMIN, and have sufficient rights to set up the rest of the
network.
Once the network has been set up and other objects (including users) have been
created, ADMIN should grant a trustee assignment to the user chosen to
supervise the entire Directory tree. After another user has the Supervisor
object right to the root object, consider deleting the user object ADMIN.
ADMIN only has rights granted by trustee assignments. Logging in as ADMIN does
not grant access to everything, like user SUPERVISOR had in previous versions
of NetWare.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 473. Root Directory of a Volume - Assigning rights ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The Root Directory of a Volume - Assigning Rights
The File and Directory rights for the root directory of each volume are
recorded in each volume object. These are separate from the Object and
Property rights that control access to the volume object.
When a NetWare server and its volumes are installed, the user installing the
server and its volumes is assigned as a trustee of the root directory with
Supervisor file and directory right. As in previous versions of NetWare, the
supervisor right on files and directories cannot be blocked by an Inherited
Rights FIlter.
The trustee who installed the server and volumes must make other trustee
assignments to the directories and files, using the FILER or NetWare
Administrator utilities. If another trustee has been granted the Supervisor
Directory right to the root directory of the volume, the original installer
trustee can be deleted.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 474. Public as a Trustee ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Public as a Trustee
PUBLIC can be listed in the Trustees list of any object to indicate the rights
that any object requesting access receives if no other rights are effective.
A person can use all of the rights granted to PUBLIC before logging in.
Because of this, no audit trail is created. Restrict the user of PUBLIC as a
trustee to non-secure areas.
You can add PUBLIC as a trustee whenever you are defining an object's or
file's trustees. You can also delete PUBLIC as a trustee of any object or
file.
PUBLIC is granted the Browse object right to the root object when NetWare v4.0
is installed. This allows all objects to see all other objects until other
trustee assignments or Inherited Rights Filters are put in place by a network
administrator.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 475. Restrictions on granting and removing the supervisor object right ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Supervisor Object Right Restrictions
The Supervisor object right allows unlimited access to an object. Because a
Directory tree can span many divisions or organizations, the Supervisor object
right can be blocked from part of the tree by the Inherited Rights Filter.
If the Supervisor object right is blocked at a container object with an
Inherited Rights Filter and no other object had the Supervisor object right to
that object, you can lose access to part of the tree.
The NETADMIN and NetWare Administrator utilities prevent this problem by

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 476. Inheriting Object and Property Rights ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Inheriting Object Rights - Inheriting Property Rights
Object rights and All property rights are inherited separately. Specific
property rights are not inherited (because different object classes have
different properties).
An object's effective object rights to a container object flow down to objects
below. An object's effective All property rights to a container object flow
down to objects below. Once the effective object rights and the effective All
property rights are determined for a leaf object, they are combined to
determine the total effective rights to the object.

Select Multiple Objects/Trustees
To select more than one object at the same time, hold down the <Shift> key (to
select from a previous selection to the current position) or the <Ctrl> key,
(to select only the additional object at the current position) while selecting
objects.
If you select more than one object at once, the changes you make affect this
object's rights to all selected objects.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 609. Error Messages for No Memory ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Insufficient Workstation Memory
To resolve an insufficient workstation memory error, you should add more
memory by installing a larger memory board. To temporarily free memory, do
one or more of the following:
- Close some Browser windows and other open OS/2 applications.
- Unload any unneeded TSR (terminate-and-stay-resident) programs.
- Modify CONFIG.SYS to reduce the number of files that can be open at the
same time, the number of buffers allocated for disk drives, and the memory
size allocated by the shell for your DOS environment (the /E option). The
following settings are sufficient for normal workstation operation, but
the values can be reduced further until problems occur:
FILES=20
BUFFERS=20
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /E:640 /P
You must reboot your machine after modifying the CONFIG.SYS file.
You may need to close the NetWare Administrator and reopen it to continue.

Replica Types
Master
There can only be one master replica per partition. If the master replica is
lost or destroyed, you need to change one of the existing replicas to make it
the master.
The master replica is accessed when a replica is added or deleted, or when a
partition is merged, or a new partition is created.
Note: If a valid Master replica exists, you cannot change the type of the
Master replica. To specify a new Master replica, change the type of an
existing Read Write partition to Master, and the Master replica will
automatically be changed to Read Write.
Read Write
Read Write replicas can be written to. They send out information for
synchronization when any change is made to an object or its properties. The
first replica created when you create a new partition is a Master replica. By
default, new replicas that you create after that are Read Write replicas.
Read Only
Read Only replicas cannot be written to. They provide information to users,
and are updated with changes from Read Write and Master replicas when the
replicas synchronize, but they do not accept changes. A user who was reading
information from a Read Only replica and tried to make a change would have to
wait while a Read Write replica was located on another server.
