This chapter contains supplementary NetWare® Enhanced Security information for Chapter 1, Managing Novell Directory Services Objects, of Supervising the Network.
The first several headings of this chapter provide supplementary information for the corresponding headings in Chapter 1 of Supervising the Network.
User Account Administration (Client) describes the use of 4TM objects to perform user account administration.
Protecting Administrative Accounts (Client) describes criteria for protection of administrator accounts.
Import/Export of NDS Objects describes the import and export of NDS objects. The use of Novell® Directory ServicesTM technology to perform audit administration is described in Auditing the Network.
WARNING: For a listing of trusted computing base utilities that you can use at the client to manage NDS objects, see your client documentation. Utilities for clients may or may not include the NetWare Administrator graphical utility, the NDS Manager utility, and the NETADMIN text utility. They may also include other utilities.
However, any client program that generates the proper NetWare Core ProtocolTM (NCPTM) messages can manipulate the Novell Directory database on behalf of the user logged in at that client connection.
