Administering the Portal

If you want to customize Virtual Office, Novell provides you with a powerful software framework that you can use for your company. Virtual Office is managed through a browser-based administration utility called Portal Admin that lets you access the directory objects containing your Novell Portal Services configuration. This utility can be accessed from Netscape* Navigator* 6.0 or later or Internet Explorer 5.0 or later.
