6.4 Disabling NMAS on the Server

NMAS is defined as a core service after it is installed because other services (such as eDirectory) might auto-integrate to use NMAS features. Because of these dependencies, it is not possible to fully uninstall this release of NMAS. However, you can disable NMAS on a server-by-server basis by performing the following steps:

6.4 On NetWare

  1. Delete the nmas.nlm file from sys:\system.

  2. Restart the server.

6.4 On Windows NT/2000 with Novell eDirectory

  1. Stop the eDirectory service.

  2. Delete the nmas.dlm file.

  3. Restart the service.

6.4 On Linux, Solaris, AIX and HP-UX

You can edit the ndsd init script, located in the /etc/init.d directory, as follows:

USE_NMAS_LOGIN_FIRST=false
export USE_NMAS_LOGIN_FIRST

At the command line, you can enter the following before you start the eDirectory server:

export USE_NMAS_LOGIN_FIRST=false
