Novell Native File Access for UNIX Objects
WARNING: After the Novell Native File Access for UNIX installation, two objects are created in the tree: NFAUUser and NISSERV_Servername. These objects should not be deleted.
The configuration (.CFG) files are used to configure the services. All of these files have the following format:
PARAMETER_NAME = VALUE
Within the .CFG files, a pound sign (#) indicates a comment.
In addition to these configuration files, there are specific files for exported volumes for the NFS Server and for the migration utility. All the configuration files are usually located in the SYS:\ETC directory. To configure the modules, you need to change the desired parameter value in the corresponding .CFG file and restart the module.
NOTE: In a cluster environment, the configuration files will be located in the ETC directory of the shared volume.
