If filename is not specified, the default file, SYS:\ETC\UNIXSCH is used for extension.Schinst takes as input the administrator's FDN and password for extending the schema.Schinst also creates the NISUserDef object with admin equivalent rights and adds the UNIX Profile to root user as UID = 0, GID =1, Home Directory =/home to this object.All log messages generated by schinst are written to the file SYS:\ETC\SCHINST.LOG. All information regarding schema extension will be found in SYS:\SYSTEM\DSMISC.LOGThis utility is run automatically during install. If the directory services are reinstalled or if the NISUserDef object is deleted, run this utility manually.
