Prerequisites to Installing Novell BorderManager 3.8


NICI 2.6 (only for NetWare 5.1 and NetWare 6)

Novell International Cryptography Infrastructure 2.6 is present in the Companion CD at nici\nwserver. To install NICI 2.6:

  1. Create a local copy of NICI 2.6 on the server on which you are installing Novell BorderManager 3.8 (Unzip the nici_u0.exe on that server).

  2. Go to NWCONFIG > Product Options, select Install A Product Not Listed, then specify the path where you have copied NICI 2.6.

  3. Restart the server after installation.


Netnlm32.nlm

Check if you have version 5.5.8 dated June 04, 2003 on your machine. This version is required to start NMAS 2.2. If your server does not have the minimum required version of this NLMTM, copy the netnlm32.nlm file from the netnlm32 directory on the Companion CD to the sys:\system directory of your server.

The latest version of the NLM can be downloaded from support.novell.com. Download and extract nwlib5.exe on the server. The DSAPI directory will be available in the extract. Copy netnlm32.nlm from the DSAPI directory to the sys:\system directory.


TCP/IP (Only for VPN)

TCP/IP is available on the Companion CD and can be installed by running a Perl script (tinstall.pl) on the server. This is done as follows:


From the CD:

  1. Insert and mount the Companion CD.

  2. At the server console, enter

    perl NBM38CCD:\TCPIP\tinstall.pl [-f]

    Provide the -f option if you have null encryption versions of this NLM software on the server.

  3. Restart the server


From the Web:

  1. Unzip the Novell BorderManager 3.8 Companion CD on a drive that is accessible from your server.

  2. At the server console, enter

    perl <Companion CD Path>\TCPIP\tinstall.pl [-f] [-p path]

    Provide the -f option if you have null encryption versions of this NLM software on the server.

    Provide the -p option to give the name of the directory where the Companion CD is unzipped.

  3. Restart the server
