6.3 Invoking NMAS Commands

How you invoke an NMAS command differs depending on what platform you are running. The following platforms are supported:

6.3.1 NetWare

The command can be added near the end of the autoexec.ncf file. The command can also be executed at the NetWare® console, but the setting isn’t persistent unless it is included in the autoexec.ncf file.

6.3.2 Windows

When NMAS is started, it processes the commands in the nmas.cfg file. The nmas.cfg file must be in the same directory as the dib files, which are usually in c:/novell/nds/dibfiles.

or

After NMAS has been started, use the following procedure:

  1. In the Novell® eDirectory™ Services console, select nmas.dlm.

  2. Type the command in the Startup Parameters field.

  3. Click Configure.

6.3.3 Linux, Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX

When NMAS is started, it processes the commands in the nmas.config file. The nmas.config file must be in the same directory as the dib directory. For example, if the .dib directory path is /var/opt/novell/eDirectory/data/dib, then the nmas.config file path is var/opt/novell/eDirectory/data/nmas.config.
