Updated Interface

The interfaces for the installation packages, Web browser-based management, Desktop Client login, and user self-management have all been updated.

Login Script Parsing

Novell Kanaka for Mac 2.7 offers the ability to parse login scripts. When you select an option in the Kanaka policy, the Kanaka Plug-in or Desktop Client mounts storage based on drive mappings in the eDirectory login scripts.

For more information, see Section 10.0, Parsing eDirectory Login Scripts and Section 11.5.1, User Management.
