Novell eDirectory installation

We can set up Novell eDirectory as the user registry in your ISAM environment.

Before you begin, ensure that you completed the basic server installation and configuration for Novell eDirectory and the ConsoleOne tool as described in the Novell product documentation.

• Configure the Novell eDirectory for ISAM
  If we are installing a new Security Verify Access secure domain, the ISAM schema is installed on the Novell eDirectory Server (NSD) automatically when the ISAM policy server is configured. However, before configuring the policy server, we must make several modifications to Novell eDirectory server.
• Users and groups in Novell eDirectory
  Novell eDirectory defines the objectclassesUser and Group as part of its base schema. Instances of the objectclasses are created when an eDirectory administrator defines a user or a group.
• Management domain location
  Security Verify Access permits us to specify a management domain location that maintains Security Verify Access metadata unless We use the default management domain location.
• SSL access on Novell eDirectory server
  Secure Socket Layer (SSL) allows the data, which is transmitted between the ISAM services and the Novell eDirectory server, to be encrypted to provide data privacy and integrity.
